Researchers from Kent and Seville revealed that phytoene, a carotenoid in common foods, can extend the lifespan of C. elegans by up to 18.6% and significantly reduce Alzheimer’s-related paralysis. Potential applications in disease prevention and healthier ageing are being explored.Common foods that help us live longer
