LCR Health Telogenesis Reviews - Benefits, Effectiveness, Safety

By Anthony Dugarte, M.D., C.S.C.S

Updated on: Jun 19, 2020

By supporting your body’s natural production of telomerase, Telogenesis from LCR Health is a dietary supplement that allegedly increases strength and energy, provides a more youthful appearance, and reduces muscle and joint soreness.

Additionally, the promotional video indicates it could help support weight management, improve overall health, and potentially slow or reverse the physical and mental symptoms of aging.

Telomeres act like the plastic caps at the end of shoelaces to help protect the DNA contained inside a chromosome. They shorten with age as well as with modifiable factors like smoking or being overweight.

Therefore, the thought behind Telogenesis is that increasing telomerase levels in our body could positively affect aging.

This review examines and ingredients, safety, and whether the supplement is substantiated by research.

Ingredients: Is There Any Science Backing Them?

In this section, we'll take a closer look at the ingredients and highlight the support, if any, that we found in our literature review.

According to the supplement facts label listed on the LCR Health website, Telogenesis contains:

AC-11 extract 350 mg

Manufactured by Healthycell, AC-11 is a dietary supplement in its own right made from the Uncaria tomentosa (UT) plant (more commonly known as cat's claw).

Healthycell claims it is "proven to enhance cell health by supporting your body's natural ability to repair DNA, limit inflammation, clear out damaged cells, and enhance immune function."

UT is a vine from the Rubiaceae family, flowering plants found in the tropics. Used in natural medicine for centuries, UT may offer relief for arthritis and viral illnesses in addition to its proposed anti-aging benefits.

In 107 subjects with knee arthritis, the combination of a mineral supplement and 100mg of UT over 8-weeks improved joint function when compared to placebo; benefits were seen within 1-2 weeks, though they were not sustained for the entire study.

The anti-inflammatory effects of UT were also demonstrated in subjects with rheumatoid arthritis. The number of tender joints were reduced in those that were treated with 60mg of UT in addition to their regular drug regimen.

The anti-aging benefits are less clear. In a study examining the effects of UT on patients with solid tumors, 100mg 3x daily improved the patients' quality, though no tumor-specific responses were seen.

As these effects were unrelated to UT's anti-inflammatory capabilities, other actions this supplement may offer require further studies to clarify.

Astragalus membranaceus (AM) extract 150 mg

AB is an herb that is widely distributed in Asia and thought to offer antioxidants, anti-inflammation, and anti-cancer effects.

In mice, AM was used to reduce the metabolic stress of weight gain, insulin levels, and insulin resistance.

Its effects as a telomerase booster have not been extensively studied in humans.

A laboratory study examined the ability of 2 different AM extracts, TA-65 and HTA, to activate telomerase in white blood cells from 6 healthy donors.

They found that all extracts are not created equal as TA-65 increased telomerase activity in more samples when compared to HTA.

Specifically, with the TA-65 extract, similar effects were seen in another laboratory study, and also in a study using birds.

As support for these effects in human studies is lacking, much more work is needed to fully define the safety and effectiveness.

KSM-66 Ashwagandha extract 125 mg

Ashwagandha, or Withania somnifera, is an herb found mostly in India that allegedly helps improve memory, boost immunity, and protect free radicals.

In a laboratory model, its telomerase activating effects were demonstrated at 10 – 50mcg. Much more work is needed to demonstrate effectiveness in human subjects.

Are There Any Potential Side Effects?

The Telogenesis ingredient that seems to offer the most available human research is UT. At doses comparable to what is offered in this product, UT was well tolerated without any adverse effects attributed to its use.

Safety and efficacy, as demonstrated by human studies, is lacking for both AM and Ashwagandha. Thus, there is not a sufficient amount of research detailing dosing over long-term that allows us to draw conclusions for these ingredients.

Though dietary supplements typically have a favorable safety profile, an in-depth conversation with your doctor before use will help minimize potential side effects and interactions with any medications or other supplements.

The Cost

Purchasing from the main LCRHealtth.com will cost you:

  • 1 Bottle: $69.95
  • 3 Bottles: $188.85
  • 6 Bottles: $256.70

LCR Health offers a 90-day money-back guarantee on all Telogenesis purchases, less return S&H, which you can request by calling 800-384-8308 or sending an email to support@LCRhealth.com.

The Bottom Line

Of the Telogenesis ingredients, UT has been the most studied in humans. Anti-inflammatory effects have been achieved at doses much lower than those offered in this supplement. Its anti-aging effects are less clear.

AM and ashwagandha lack sufficient evidence to characterize the safety and efficacy in humans.

While LCR Health seems to come with a mostly positive online customer reputation, taking this supplement may not be the best first-step given the lack of strong scientific support.

Our greatest personal asset is our health

By Levi B., Texas, Verified Reviewer

Like many products we all may encounter on the internet, I evaluated Telogenesis with a small amount of skepticism.

Personally, however, in regards to my health, I consider myself an optimistic individual. Before I render my verdict on this product I will briefly give a small summary of my situation.

I am a 55-year-old male, former servicemen, SFC (Sergeant First Class) United States Army 15 years of service at the time of my injuries, sustained in 2007 during OIF (Operation Iraqi Freedom). My estimated recovery time was 5 years with many types of therapy. I retain all of my bodily appendages intact, however, I have been beset with moderate to severe pain and insomnia, over the course of the last 6 years. I have managed to maintain a regular exercise regiment notwithstanding many challenges. I have tried many consumer products with claims of pain reduction or boasting the benefits of more energy and restful sleep all to no avail.

After viewing the online video of Telogenesis the characteristics of the product did not exactly meet the schematic of what I was searching for, however, the product seemed to be unique. At the risk of being redundant, in regards to my health I retain optimism, So I placed an order for a 90-day supply.

I have been consuming this product for 30 days and I have only one regret, well make that two. The first, in retrospect I should have ordered a 6-month supply, secondly, I regret not completing an overall self-evaluation of my physical and psychological health before I began consuming Telogenesis.

During my service to this country in every regard, my honor and integrity have always remained steadfast, I make every attempt to maintain those attributes when interacting with the citizens of my country still. So the following information is true and accurate, as far as this product is concerned with the impact it has had upon me personally.

In the first 7 days, I really did not notice anything, but on the 10th day, I realized there was a lack of that lethargic or sluggish feeling I always felt throughout the day, on the 10th day I realized there was a slight increase in energy during my exercise routine that morning.

After two weeks of consumption, one morning I overslept, not a big deal right...it was monumental to me! Since 2007 the most sleep gained in one night was 5 hours not uninterrupted by bouts of waking, I had no need for an alarm. It was a life-changing event for me, I have continued to sleep without waking not less than 7 hours each night since, I still cannot believe it! (I now need an alarm.) If that's not enough in the last week or more I have begun to crave more healthy foods, fruits, vegetables as well as fish like tuna and salmon, my nutritional intake has always been an issue, I have lost 5 lbs in the last 30 days.

All this sounds too good to be true right?

Well, that's how I feel, I continue to ask myself when will I stop feeling like a new person? There is no product that can have such a multitude of benefits in such a limited amount of time, that train of thought continues to linger with me.

On a final note, I would advise anyone to complete a pre-self analyzation both physical as well as your mental state to be evaluated before the consumption of Telogenesis to note any benefits gained. I can only hope that any individual who decides to try this product has the same success that I have experienced.

I will be forever grateful, and a loyal supporter of LCR Heath as long as their product offers me these continued benefits.

Sincerely: Thomas L. Burns

LCR = scam

By Keith G., England, Verified Reviewer

This operation seems to me to be a SCAM. I ordered Telogenesis way back in the summer (the 22nd of August). Despite many attempts to have the Telogenesis I ordered and paid for, Dr. Mcclain's organization just refuses to actually resolve the issue of failure to deliver.

Keep your money well away from LCR.

Amazing

By Sarah K., Washington, Verified Reviewer

I'm 65 and read all the information about the ingredients in Telogenesis, I can hardly believe it, but I'm feeling a lot better in general. My energy level is much improved, and my blood sugar levels are much improved also. I usually have fibromyalgia in the cold damp winter here, but so far the pain has not come on this winter. This is big for me.

I'm so happy to be feeling a lot better, and I've stopped other supplements, just to see if this one was going to have any effect. I really think it's helping my health overall, and would highly recommend this product. It's a bit expensive, but I want to keep feeling this good, so I'll keep taking it.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

New found strength

By Colleen G., Orlando, FL, Verified Reviewer

I’ve been laid up with a leg injury for about a year. I was moving to a new office space and injured my leg. I was in so much pain. I started healing, but I couldn’t work out because my leg felt weak. After using Telogenesis by LCR, my overall muscle strength has returned and I’m able to start working out again without pain or muscle weakness.

Thanks.

My body is moving in the right direction

By Patty W., Phoenix, AZ, Verified Reviewer

I have barely used one bottle of Telogenesis. I have a good feeling about subtle changes in my body. I expect more, may I say, tangible results as time goes on. I am gratified to have read the explanation about how this works in my system; I know things are headed in a healthy direction. In addition, I do eat organic food. I am in my late 80's, but am reasonably active, I have a part-time job working from home, I work out at the gym once a week minimum and do a series of exercises and stretches each morning. So life is good.

Skin change

By Elizabeth E., Saint Louis, MO, Verified Reviewer

I had a red spot on my hand that had been there for months. I had used various creams and ointments that had no effect on it and it was becoming a darker red and if scratched would hurt. Thinking it must be a skin cancer I made an appointment with my dermatologist. About 3 days after taking Telogenesis the spot got lighter. It is now barely visible and I canceled my doctor appointment. I figured it was doing something good at the cellular level so I continue to take it.

Read the instructions, it will save you time.

By Michael A M., Barto, PA, Verified Reviewer

I am 68, so something that will extend your Telomeres was of some interest to me. I felt better after taking it almost immediately, and that I could say for sure by the third day. I have been taking it since. But I am getting old, and I know just one pill is not going to restore my youth. I received offers for other LCR products, the Telogenesis was working, let’s try the other products.

Now, it is important to read the instructions, which I did not at first. The Telogenesis can be taken with food, but the other three products are recommended to be taken on an empty stomach with a glass of water. They did not work as well when taken with food, and after I finally read the instructions and followed those directions, the other three products worked much better.

So, the final word is, how you take your supplements is as important as what supplements you take.

Slows the aging process

By Chester M., Kansas, Verified Reviewer

After taking Telogenesis for two weeks I've noticed an alertness in my eyes that wasn't there before. It was on that same morning that, I declare, I actually looked younger and felt a vitality to get up and go that I haven't felt in a long time. I take my daily dosage at night before I go to bed and consume my other LCR supplements first thing out of bed. I've found that while aging cannot be stopped it can be slowed down. I want to thank you all for the research that has brought about a change in the aging process. Keep up the good work!

Notice better posture

By Nancy G., Michigan, Verified Reviewer

After the very first day, I noticed that I was walking upright - not bent over as I have been for over a year. Since then I haven't noticed anything more, but this is a very big difference. When I awake during the night and go to the bathroom, I no longer walk bent over, but standing straight up! I have been taking the capsules every morning for 27 days now (one per day) and am wondering if it might help even more if I were to take another before bed.

Is this recommended?

Excellent

By Magena F., Kansas, Verified Reviewer

I've been using Telogenesis for a month now and I can say that I'm feeling great. My knee pain has been reduced significantly, still there, but better. But I feel with energy all day long. I'm happy with the product. I would like to become an affiliate to sale Telogenesis.

Was skeptical but not anymore!

By Crystal W., Killeen, TX, Verified Reviewer

I'm really glad I tried this product. I have been using it for almost a month. I have fibromyalgia and have noticed a difference in my muscle and nerve pain. I am now sleeping better. I have lost inches in my stomach area. My appetite is more curbed. I still have issues but I do notice a change for the better, especially in my pain. I can walk better and do more Than I have in a long while. Nothing I have taken before has done anything to help my muscle pain.

Thank you for your product. I will be ordering it again and can't wait to see what else it can do for me. I can't believe this is actually helping me, but it sure is! NOTHING has ever helped me like this has. SO HAPPY!
