    Higher brain care score is linked to younger retinal age

    In 28,657 adults, higher brain care scores were linked to thicker retinal layers, and each five-unit increase was tied to a smaller retinal age gap.In 28,657 adults, higher brain care scores were linked to thicker retinal layers, and each five-unit increase was tied to a smaller retinal age gap.

    Early overfeeding speeds muscle loss and shortens life in mice

    Overfeeding young mice damaged gut microbes, impaired muscle cell energy production, and worsened age-related muscle wasting in later life.Overfeeding young mice damaged gut microbes, impaired muscle cell energy production, and worsened age-related muscle wasting in later life.

    Higher blood pressure is linked to larger brain structures

    In an analysis of 1,012 participants, higher blood pressure was linked to larger deep brain volumes compared with blood pressure below 120/80 millimetres of mercury.In an analysis of 1,012 participants, higher blood pressure was linked to larger deep brain volumes compared with blood pressure below 120/80 millimetres of mercury.
