"Reverse brain aging", sure, in the same sense that taking Vitamin C reverses aging.

The nasal spray reduced markers of inflammation in hippocampal microglial cells.

A lot of things reduce inflammation. That is not "reversing ageing".

Of course, "reduces inflammation" doesn't headline very well...

This is the current big grift in anti-aging science:

1 - Find a marker correlated with aging across a large sample

2 - Find a medication or supplement that also alters that marker

3 - Do some before and after measurements of the marker with the supplement or medication, and claim that you have reversed aging. Rely on the fact that enough readers won’t look closely enough to wonder if the marker is a true independent variable that represents aging.

Kinda surprised A&M’s letting them use AI to write these things

“The most surprising part? It all happened within weeks and lasted for months.”

That’s an AI tell. It may not be entirely LLM-generated, the various direct quotations help a lot, but there are touches that definitely feel like an LLM had a hand here.

That's not an "AI tell". If you read anything in recent decades, this is a turn of speech human writers wrote for ages and still write.

"It's not just x, it's y." Absolutely clear tell, especially at this frequency. Examples from the article below:

"Over decades, it doesn’t just wear down, it also starts to run hot." "... the therapy didn’t just clear brain fog, it physically improved the brain’s ability to process and store information."

The quotes as well: "'... Not just living longer, but living smarter and healthier,' Shetty said." "'We aren’t just trying to understand the biological mechanisms, we are translating and developing our findings into real-world therapies that could make a difference,' Shetty said."

What that is is a tell of bad writing

It's a tell of not writing. It is extremely well-documented as a tell of AI writing.

Anybody who still writes using their own mind has stopped using that pattern, along with others. "The thing nobody tells you:" is no longer used by decent writers.

It’s a tell now. I see it I assume AI and disregard.

Just a heads up, you're firmly in Poe's Law territory.

AI generated? Not demonstrated.

Whining by humans claiming AI? Predictable. Probable. Indeed LLM "complete the sentence" predictable.
