This is very interesting and just shows you how much research has been done by scientists and medical practitioners around the world. We are living in exciting times.
(Visit: http://www.uctv.tv/) Does stress speed up the aging process at a genetic level? Our cells are constantly aging. When cell divide some telomere is lost but if it becomes too short, that cell can no longer replicate and eventual dies. Elissa Epel...

Can cells just divide and divide forever? Not if telomeres can help it! Find out more in this video. Head on over to khanacademy.org or the khanacademymedicine YouTube channel to see some really informative videos!
Watch how stress effects our genes! The genetic structures called telomeres protect the ends of our chromosomes from fraying. As we age, our telomeres shorten. Stress by way of stress hormones accelerate the shortening of telomeres. A telomere is a reg...
Studies show that telomere length correlates with cellular aging. Scientists have observed that when telomeres are shorter, disease and death are near. I highly recommend this test! Please leave a comment below this video and we will be sure to respond...
