TELOMERES & AGING
Can We Control Aging
Telomeres are protective DNA caps at the ends of chromosomes that prevent genetic damage when cells divide
Every time a cell divides, telomeres get a little shorter.
- as they shorten, we age
When they become too short, the cell can’t divide properly and stops functioning to eventually die.
Studies show
associations but not definitive proof of making telomeres extend:
- Omega-3
- Vitamin D (if deficient)
- Curcumin
- Green tea extract
Important: No supplement has been ‘proven’ to lengthen telomeres in humans.
However, these supplements are key to overall health. A healthy person can set the stage for our divinely intelligent bodies to restore & heal & that may very well include extending the telomeres.
Along with -
Best evidence-based strategy to slow down the aging process
✔ Exercise regularly
✔ Sleep well
✔ Manage stress
✔ Eat a Mediterranean-style diet
✔ Maintain healthy weight
✔ Avoid smoking
✔ Limit alcohol
These measurably correlate with slower telomere shortening in long-term human studies.
