<Latest Report Released> The New Common Sense of 'Anti-Aging' Changed by Flaxseed Oil: Does 1 Tablespoon Equal 1 Hour of Walking?

The Wellness General Research Institute (Representative Director: Makoto Hatano), as part of its efforts to research, accumulate, and disseminate information on health and wellness in the 100-year lifespan era, published a latest interview article focusing on a new factor that controls aging, 'DEL-1', on Wednesday, April 8, 2026.

DEL-1 is a molecule that suppresses chronic inflammation in the body and maintains tissue homeostasis, and it has been revealed that it decreases with age. The most notable mechanism of DEL-1 is that it reduces aging cells that are causing inflammation, making it harder for chronic inflammation to occur throughout the tissue. It is especially highly expressed in organs that are difficult to regenerate, such as the nervous system, blood vessels, and kidneys, functioning essentially as the 'defensive power of the body'. The decline of DEL-1 has been suggested to be potentially linked to risks such as dementia, decreased renal function, and osteoporosis. ◆Familiar physical issues appearing with a decrease in DEL-1 When DEL-1 decreases, a variety of effects may appear, ranging from superficial changes like dry skin, dry eyes, and swollen gums to systemic issues like joint pain and weakened immunity. Areas like the skin and mucous membranes are particularly prone to showing changes, and people with clear skin tend to have higher levels of DEL-1. Another characteristic is that changes can be felt relatively early through lifestyle improvements. ◆Focusing on the relationship between Flaxseed Oil and DEL-1 It has been shown that the intake of Omega-3 fatty acids contained in flaxseed oil and others may contribute to an increase in DEL-1. As research progressed, it was discovered that the metabolites of Omega-3 fatty acids play a role in removing obstacles that inhibit the production of DEL-1. Here...
