The study involved 58 mothers, 19 of whom had a healthy child each, and 39 who had a chronically ill child. Those who cared for a sick child had higher exposure to stress and shorter telomeres. And the longer the mother spent caring for a chronically ill child, the shorter her telomeres...
Healthy life style including Mediterranean diet, moderate exercise, managing stress (breathing, meditation, yoga), spending time with loved ones and lots of laughter will help us to keep our telomeres long and safe.doi:10.1515/tjb-2017-0319Dikmen, Z. Gunnur...
At either end of each chromosome is aDNA structurecalled a telomere. As cells age and divide, telomere length becomes shorter and shorter until the cell eventually dies. It’s a natural and inevitable process. So what do telomeres have to do with cellular health? Well, telomeres don’t shor...
Yet every cell in our bodies must have a way of differentiating between the two because the best way to protect the healthy end of a chromosome also happens to be the worst way to repair damaged DNA. Consider the enzyme telomerase, which is responsible for maintaining protective telomeres at ...
chromosomes, known as telomeres. These telomeres shorten as you age, which is associated with easier sickness and worse chances of survival. You can keep them longer by the way you live. Better diet and some activities can protect your DNA from the influence of aging, leading to a longer ...
see, there are ways today you can improve your health and better manage the effects of aging. Now that you know more about telomeres, their role in your health as you age and how you can keep them healthy longer, will you take the next step to protect the health of your telomeres?
According to new research, masters athletes have longer telomeres than non-athletes of the same age.

The foods you eat, your response to challenges, the amount of exercise you get, and many other factors appear to influence your telomeres and can prevent premature aging at the cellular level. One of the keys to enjoying good health is simply doing your part to foster healthy cell renewal....
However, one thing is certain: In order to deliver on the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goal to "Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages", something must be done to secure better lifelong quality of life for all. Agreements must be made for long-term ...
