E120: Inflammatory Diseases and Anti-Aging

Did you know that the way your skin ages may indicate the presence of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer or Parkinson’s diseases, lung aging and cardiovascular diseases?

This and much more in an extremely interesting episode presented by Prof. Jan Gutermuth,  Chair and Principle Investigator of the Department of Dermatology at Universitair Ziekenhuis Brussel and Dr. Eugenia Makrantonaki, researcher in several Universities in Germany, with more than 25 year-experience in skin aging.

The conversation covers the role of hormones and genes in both women and men, indicating that the skin ages in the same way for both genders. Also, Dr. Makrantonaki explaines the term ‘Inflammaging’, used to identify a low grade inflammation in our skin and reminds how lifestyle and stress can deeply influence the way our skin ages.
