The scientific community has access to the Human Genome, but Nu Skin’s breakthrough anti-aging science gives the ability to interpret it in a meaningful way. In a recent scientific discovery, Nu Skin, in collaboration with anti-aging and genetics experts, has identified key groups or functional clusters of genes—Youth Gene Clusters—that help influence how we age. Finding and identifying these functional groups of genes is the key to targeting aging at its source and develop products that effectively enhance youthful appearance.
Resetting Youth Gene Clusters is a subtle balancing process—it’s not as simple as turning them on and off. Some genes within the cluster may need to be turned up while others may need to be turned down. Nu Skin’s proprietary anti-aging science resets Youth Gene Clusters to create a youthful balance within each cluster—returning them to more youthful patterns of activity.
Clinical study results, genomic analyses, and substantiated research from anti-aging science has led Nu Skin scientists to identify specific functional Youth Gene Clusters that are responsible for youthful skin attributes. The expression of skin-related Youth Gene Clusters is responsible for the signs of aging on our skin.
“In order to retain a youthful appearance, genes must regain their youthful activity patterns. By analyzing human tissue at the genetic level, we’ve learned the crucial role of gene expression in retaining one’s youth.”
