Origin & tradition
Not traditional: fisetin occurs in strawberries and other plants; its senolytic profile emerged from aging research.
Western tradition · Senolytic · flavonoid
A plant flavonoid and leading senolytic candidate — clearing “zombie” senescent cells in animal models.
Data definition. Matched records include all indexed medical endpoints for this intervention — not only longevity. Longevity-relevant records are screened separately and cited in the evidence summary below. Counts are matched-record volumes, not de-duplicated trials and not efficacy claims.
Not traditional: fisetin occurs in strawberries and other plants; its senolytic profile emerged from aging research.
Key active: Fisetin (flavonoid senolytic).
Fisetin selectively clears senescent cells and extended lifespan and healthspan in aged mice; human senolytic trials are early-stage, making this promising-but-unproven.
Effect summary
| Health outcome | Effect | Magnitude | Grade |
|---|---|---|---|
| Senescent cell markers (p21, p16) — Early human data; strong animal evidence | Decreases | Minor | C |
| Inflammation (IL-6, TNF-α) | Decreases | Minor | C |
| Cognitive function (animal models) | Increases | Moderate | D |
| Oxidative stress markers | Decreases | Minor | C |
Grade: A = robust RCTs · B = several RCTs / meta-analysis · C = limited or mixed RCTs · D = observational or early data
Dosage guidance
Most human evidence uses high-dose intermittent protocols for senolytic effect. Daily low-dose is more common for antioxidant/neuroprotective purposes. Bioavailability is low — liposomal forms are under study.

Evidence summary
Strong animal senolytic data; human trials early
Fisetin selectively clears senescent cells and extended lifespan and healthspan in aged mice; human senolytic trials are early-stage, making this promising-but-unproven.
According to PubMed and ClinicalTrials.gov: trial counts from ClinicalTrials.gov, peer-reviewed literature from PubMed. Counts auto-refresh weekly; last checked 2026-07-19. They include trials across many endpoints, not only longevity.
Informational only — not medical advice, a treatment claim, or a substitute for a qualified clinician. Evidence strength varies; we show mixed and null results on purpose.
