Nu Skin Anti-ageing Science

 

In this interview, Dr. Helen Knaggs, Vice President, Nu Skin Global Research and Development, explores the fascinating world of epigenetics and how Nu Skin’s anti-ageing science helps address the sources of ageing. 

 

The term ‘anti-ageing’ can be misleading - ageing begins the moment we are born and continues throughout life. Given the inevitability of ageing, instead of stopping time, the real goal is to live our best life at every stage. Understanding how to do this is at the core of Nu Skin’s scientific approach.

 

Much of what we know about ageing comes from the studies on identical twins. Since twins share the exact same genetic sequence (DNA), one might assume they would age identically. But the research shows otherwise. While genes play a role, they don’t tell the whole story—our lifestyle choices and environment influence how we age. This is where epigenetics comes in.

 

Epigenetics is the science of how external factors affect gene expression, shaping the way we age beyond what is written in our DNA. The good news? We have the power to make choices that positively impact our ageing journey.
