About Us

OUR MISSION

Our mission is to translate scientific advancements in understanding the role of cellular senescence into an accessible dietary program that can potentially increase one’s healthspan by addressing the underlying cause of age-related chronic disease. 

Our commitment extends to ongoing clinical research demonstrating the ability of our dietary technology to be the foundation for an entirely new approach to extending healthspan in the 21st century.

Our Senotec Team

We are developing new dietary technologies to extend healthspan by controlling the hormonal and epigenetic responses of the body’s internal Resolution Response.  The result is the reprogramming of your immune system to remove senescence cells that accelerate the development of the age-related chronic disease that shorten your healthspan. 

DR. BARRY SEARS – PRESIDENT

Senotec Labs was founded by Dr. Barry Sears.  Dr. Sears started the field of anti-inflammatory nutrition in 1995 with the publication of his first book, The Zone, a #1 New York Times best-seller.  His dietary technology has continued to evolve over the years into Metabolic Engineering™, to reprogram the immune system to remove senescent cells that  accelerate the aging process which decreases your healthspan.

Dr. Sears is a highly regarded research scientist who has authored more than 50 scientific publications. In addition, he has written 18 books and has been issued 15 U.S. patents in areas ranging from cancer drug delivery, the treatment of cardiovascular disease, and invention of the lipids used to produce current mRNA vaccines for treating Covid-19.
