The psychiatrist José Luis Marín asserts that the postal code has more impact on life expectancy than the genetic code, highlighting the importance of socioeconomic and environmental factors in people's health. #Salud #Longevidad #DesigualdadSocial (translated)
The author argued that human longevity depended on planetary health, saying environmental changes disproportionately affected older people and that clean air, safe water, nutritious food and safe temperatures were essential for healthy ageing. They questioned the value of extending lifespans without protecting those conditions.
The author wrote that George Church and colleagues had identified SRSF1, an RNA-processing and splicing factor, through a transcriptomic screen, and said it restored youthful profiles in cells. They also reported that activating SRSF1 extended median lifespan by 14% in a small mouse study.
The general director of the Idis Foundation, Marta Villanueva, asserts that medicine and the concept of health must adapt to the new reality of longevity, focusing on combating unwanted loneliness to ensure comprehensive well-being throughout life. #Longevidad #Soledad #CuidadosSociosanitarios (translated)
Large dogs age more quickly than small ones due to changes in DNA methylation that affect their longevity and biological processes throughout their lives. #Perros #Envejecimiento #CienciaCanina (translated)
Diego Simeone, in his sixteenth season as coach of Atlético de Madrid, looks towards the longevity of Alex Ferguson at Manchester United while his own future at the club remains unresolved despite the mutual desire to renew his contract. #Simeone #Atlético #Ferguson (translated)
The author asked what the DNA of the oldest known land animal, which they said had lived 194 years, might reveal about ageing. They wrote that exceptional longevity may depend not on avoiding ageing, but on maintaining stable regulation of genes involved in energy production, RNA processing and DNA repair.
A genome study of Maria Branyas, who lived 117 years, reveals that a positive attitude and certain genetic factors, along with her diet rich in dairy, may be key to the secret of extreme longevity. #Longevidad #Supercentenarios #Salud (translated)
Bolotana, a town in Sardinia, is recognized for having women with the second highest life expectancy in the world, surpassed only by those in Hong Kong, thanks to their healthy diet, connection with nature, and physical activity. #Longevidad #Cerdeña #ZonaAzul (translated)
Jonathan, the 194-year-old giant tortoise from Aldabra, has been the subject of scientific study revealing 287 unique genetic variants that contribute to his incredible longevity and offer new insights into aging. #Jonathan #Longevidad #Tortugas (translated)
“In Jonathan, the genetic regulators involved in energy production and DNA repair have remained incredibly stable for almost two centuries, which is striking because they usually deteriorate over time,” notes one of the authors, Justin Gerlach, a researcher in the ecology of giant tortoises at the British University of C. #TortugaJonathan #Longevidad #CienciaGenética (translated)
Jonathan, the 194-year-old tortoise, has revealed his secret to longevity through a genetic study showing 287 unique variants that slow down aging and a methylome that effectively controls DNA repair and other key processes in the organism. #TortugaJonathan #Longevidad #CienciaGenética (translated)
Longevity in Portugal represents a medical achievement, but it brings to light the challenge of ensuring that these years are lived with autonomy and quality, rather than translating into dependency and incapacity. #saúde #longevidade #medicina (translated)
The International Longevity Summit in Madrid brings together experts and scientists to discuss life extension, generating controversy due to its elitist approach in a capitalist context that raises questions about who truly benefits from these advancements in longevity. #Longevidad #Envejecimiento #Salud (translated)
Cinco expertos en ciencia del envejecimiento analizan si existe un límite biológico para la vida humana y discuten el impacto de los avances tecnológicos en la longevidad en el contexto de mejorar la salud y la calidad de vida. #Longevità #EnvejecimientoSaludable #Ciencia
Diego Suárez, experto en longevidad, cuestiona el mito de que es necesario comer cada tres horas, argumentando que espaciar las comidas puede resultar en una mayor energía y reducción de la hinchazón. #Longevidad #AlimentaciónConsciente #SaludInmunológica
Vicente Mera, experto en longevidad, subraya la importancia de adoptar hábitos saludables antes de cumplir 60 años, ya que a esa edad la calidad de vida puede empezar a disminuir, siendo crucial intervenir proactivamente en el cuidado de la salud. #Longevidad #Salud #Bienestar
Un estudio revela que el esturión de lago podría vivir hasta 427 años, mucho más de lo que se pensaba, lo que abre nuevas posibilidades para la conservación de esta especie vulnerable en los Grandes Lagos de EE.UU. #EsturiónDeLago #LongevidadAnimal #Conservación
El entrenamiento de fuerza se ha vuelto esencial en la conversación sobre salud y envejecimiento, ya que la investigación muestra que la fuerza muscular es un mejor predictor de la salud y longevidad que la masa muscular por sí sola. #FuerzaMuscular #SaludEnvejecimiento #MasaMuscular
El VO2 máx es un importante parámetro de salud que indica la cantidad máxima de oxígeno que el cuerpo puede absorber y utilizar durante el ejercicio, y se ha demostrado que mejorarlo puede reducir significativamente el riesgo cardiovascular y aumentar la longevidad. #VO2Máx #SaludCardiovascular #EjercicioRegular
