Diet Can Lengthen Telomeres for Better Health
A sustained lowering of food intake over time—while avoiding malnutrition—results in an increase of telomere length in adult mice
Aging Is Easier with Endurance Exercise
Endurance training such as that done for track competitions may protect against the effects of aging in older individuals, a study of telomeres suggested.
Telomere Length Correlates with Life Span of Dog Breeds
Canadian researchers have found domestic dogs show parallels in telomere biology to humans, with similar telomere length, telomere attrition, and absence of somatic cell telomerase activity.
Telomere Length Can Predict Longevity In The Wild
New research from the University of East Anglia in the UK has found a correlation among biological age, longevity and an individual’s DNA by studying a wild population of Seychelles Warblers on a small island.
Children with older fathers and grandfathers ‘live longer’
Delaying fatherhood may offer survival advantages, say scientists who have found children with older fathers and grandfathers appear to be “genetically programmed” to live longer.
