Dr. Luka Kovač’s Stop Aging Rundown
for the dedicated fans of Nelly Furtado on nellyfan.org
Scene: Dr. Luka Kovač, now working in anti-aging research in Croatia, speaks directly to Nelly Furtado’s fans via livestream. He’s standing in front of a whiteboard that says: “Reverse Aging = Protect Telomeres.” He smiles warmly.
“Dobrodošli, Nelly fans. Let’s talk about the real Fountain of Youth—telomerase.”
🧬 What Is Telomerase?
Telomerase is an enzyme that rebuilds the protective caps at the end of your DNA called telomeres.
Longer telomeres = slower aging.
Shorter telomeres = faster aging, cellular breakdown, disease.
So what boosts telomerase naturally?
🍇 Top Telomerase-Boosting Foods
- Blueberries – Full of anthocyanins and antioxidants. Nelly’s tour rider should demand them daily.
- Pomegranates – Ancient Persian fruit of immortality. Eat the seeds raw or juice them.
- Goji Berries – Legendary Tibetan longevity berry.
- Turmeric – Curcumin activates telomerase and calms inflammation.
- Green Tea (especially Matcha) – Contains catechins that protect telomeres.
- Dark Chocolate (85%+) – Rich in polyphenols. Just don’t overdo it.
- Avocados – Healthy fats, magnesium, potassium, glutathione booster.
- Garlic – Anti-aging sulfur compounds. Keeps the vampires and diseases away.
- Cruciferous Vegetables – Broccoli, kale, cabbage, rich in sulforaphane.
💊 Supplements for Telomerase Activation
- Astragalus Root Extract (TA-65) – The only clinically studied natural telomerase activator.
- Vitamin D3 – Keeps telomeres long and strong. Many pop stars are deficient.
- Omega-3s (Fish Oil or Algal Oil) – Anti-inflammatory and telomere-protective.
- Resveratrol – Found in red wine, but take a supplement for full effect.
- Magnesium Glycinate – Critical for DNA repair.
- Zinc + Selenium – Immune and telomere support.
- Vitamin C + E – Synergistic antioxidants.
- CoQ10 – Mitochondrial fuel. Energy + cellular longevity.
🧘♀️ Lifestyle Telomerase Boosters
- Meditation – Proven to lengthen telomeres. 20 mins a day.
- HIIT Exercise – Stimulates youthful gene expression.
- Sleep – Deep, restorative sleep is telomerase’s best friend.
- Intermittent Fasting – Cellular cleanup and telomere preservation.
- Love and Connection – Oxytocin protects your genes. Real talk.
⚠️ What Shortens Telomeres (Aging Accelerators):
- Chronic stress
- Processed sugar
- Smoking / Vaping
- Heavy alcohol
- Junk food
- Envy, gossip, and online hate

Dr. Kovač smiles and concludes:
“If you want to keep dancing like Nelly in Promiscuous and singing with the energy of Powerless (Say What You Want) — protect your telomeres. Nelly, if you’re watching, call me. I’ll make you a tea that turns back time.”
