The Role of Telomeres in Extending Lifespan: Exploring the Latest Research.

The Role of Telomeres in Extending Lifespan: Exploring the Latest Research.


Want to live longer? It's all about the Telomeres! Not moving much at work? a study has found that going from a sedentary lifestyle to walking 20-30 minutes per day can cut pre-mature death by up to 30% 

Just 25 minutes of brisk walking a day can add as much as seven years to your life.

Now you might be asking, but Dr Julian... how? Well, it's all about the telomeres. Exercise lengthens your tellers with structures at the end of your chromosomes that regulate cellular paging. 

If your telomeres get shorter, your risk of premature death increases. 

Cause I'm HAPPY! And so can you with exercise:) 

A 2018 study reviewed over 500 000 people from a wide range of ages and from different ethnic and socioeconomic groups. 

It found that there was a strong link between exercise to being happier. 

Too hard pile? I challenge you as the study found that as little as 10 minutes a week was linked to being happier.  Of course, those that worked out 30 minutes a day showed the greatest benefit. 

The exercise involved aerobic exercise and stretching/balancing exercises. 

Another study of over a million men and women found that those who have the lowest level of fitness had a 76% increase in the likelihood that they would be diagnosed with depression. 

Another 2018 study found that people who did weight training had fewer symptoms of depression. The frequency and the amount of weight training did not matter.
