Per https://www.lifeextension.com/magazine/2020/10/senolytics-offer-new-hope-for-heart-failure
Many age-related diseases are associated with an accruing senescent
cell burden. These aged, damaged cells accumulate in our tissues,
refusing to die off. They instead secrete inflammatory molecules that
damage surrounding healthy cells.
Within the last few years, scientists have discovered that compounds
called senolytics have the power to selectively trigger senescent
cells to self-destruct, while leaving most normal cells unharmed.
Using senolytics to eliminate those "zombie" cells improves health and
extends life in animals
[Theaflavins (from black tea) and quercetin are reportedly good senolytics]
-----------------
Even more exciting, anticipated later this year is the introduction of
bioavailable fisetin, a plant extract that some scientists believe may
be the most effective senolytic compound
