The clues to why young people are ageing faster than they should: These factors have all been linked to higher cancer rates - so are you at risk?

'Accelerated ageing' and rising cancer rates have been attributed to a mix of genetics, lifestyle, diet and environmental factors. But new data suggests specific lifestyle choices may be to blame

another day, another #gaslighting “news article” to explain away the “unexplainable” occurrences happening & increasing all around us #cancer

It was your decaf coffee🙄
Your lack of sleep
Your crap diet🙄🙄
microplastics, chemical products, water, Teflon pots & pans, detergent, air etc

BUT it absolutely definitely💯 could not be #sarscov2 #CovidAcceleratedAging #acceleratedAging #telomereShortening

Not everything was Covid, but pretty sure everything is Covid now #reckless

Oh sweet summer child.. death would be welcome compared to the plethora of other possibilities
#dementia #psychosis #diabetes #ckd #EndothelialDamage #vascularDysfunction #acceleratedAging #cardiacArrest #cancer #tCells #ImmuneDysregulation #mitichondria

I could go on #covidPapers

You really haven’t lived until you’ve seen someone die & how you die is a detail most unfortunately don’t think about

Quality over quantity🤷🏻‍♀️

it took me several check outs from the library to get through this, but it is one of the most interesting, depressing & dense books I’ve ever listened to & am a better person for listening to it altho👀👀👀

After reading/skimming the peer reviewed #CovidPapers all of 2022 & noticing #acceleratedAging all around me for the past year, learning about #dementia was my goal for 2023 & boy did #TiaPowell #DementiaReimagined deliver

Having never known about it, what I can say is, you definitely do not want this; it makes #cancer look like a🎄🎁

Book was published in 2019 when there were 75 million #babyBoomers approaching the prime dementia ages where 30-50% will have it by age 85. Post Covid tho, that number has risen %-wise & age of onset lowered by DECADES

Symptoms aren’t straight forward b/c it’s not merely the stereotypical memory loss & I realized one of my building neighbors had been suffering from it for at least 15 years after listening to all the presentations of different types. There are 7 stages & you could probably hide the fact you have it w/out too much difficulty #brainFog

There is no cure & the “recommendations of prevention” are honestly… useless if you don’t remember the first rule; DO NOT GET COVID/viruses or minimize the amount of times you do & certainly don’t breathe air arbitrarily🚫😷

Never thought about dementia b/c it didn’t run in my family but after 2 full infections, now I worry just a bit. Ok.. I’m a fatalist hypochondriac so perhaps slightly more than a “bit” but medical paranoia has been generally my friend, so I’ll continue being paranoid

The stories are harrowing but this book is definitely what I needed to know b/c mental decline will only be ever increasing all around as more time goes by

Great read that demonstrates MORE research for #acceleratedAging

At its core, #SARS2 is a #telomere shortening #mitochondria destroying disease where you age rapidly like #DavidBowie did in #TheHunger

It’s amazing to me a society obsessed w/ #health #youth is subjecting themselves to untrammeled exposure to a #BSL3 #pathogen willingly

Yet they continue to #exercise take #antioxidants & all sorts of prescriptive except THE MOST IMPORTANT ONE

it’s all just too hard
🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🤷🏻‍♀️🖤

Oh yay another pre-print on something that was already covered last October🙄

Literally no amount of science will get these people to #wearADamnMask

They don’t give a damn about themselves, so we expect them to care about the rest of society?

Taken me⏱️⏱️to conclude💯 b/c infectious disease isn’t fashion forecasting, but we are in absolute dire demise circumstances w/ free for all #Covid #SARS2 #mutations #Bidenomics

GIVE US UNFETTERED ACCESS TO #novavax now

bioRxivEpigenetic Age Acceleration in Surviving versus Deceased COVID-19 Patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome following HospitalizationAging has been reported as a major risk factor for severe symptoms and higher mortality rates in COVID-19 patients. Molecular hallmarks such as epigenetic alterations and telomere attenuation reflect the biological process of aging. Epigenetic clocks have been shown to be valuable tools for measuring biological age in a variety of tissues and samples. As such, these epigenetic clocks can determine accelerated biological aging and time-to-mortality across various tissues. Previous reports have shown accelerated biological aging and telomere attrition acceleration following SARS-CoV-2 infection. However, the effect of accelerated epigenetic aging on outcome (death/recovery) in COVID-19 patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) has not been well investigated. In this study, we measured DNA methylation age and telomere attrition in 87 severe COVID-19 cases with ARDS under mechanical ventilation. Furthermore, we compared dynamic changes in epigenetic aging across multiples time-points until recovery or death. Epigenetic age was measured using the Horvath, Hannum, DNAm skin and blood, GrimAge, and PhenoAge clocks, whereas telomere length was calculated using the surrogate marker DNAmTL. Our analysis revealed significant accelerated epigenetic aging but no telomere attrition acceleration in severe COVID-19 cases. In addition, we observed epigenetic age deceleration at inclusion vs end of follow-up in recovered but not in deceased COVID-19 cases using certain clocks. When comparing dynamic changes in epigenetic age acceleration (EAA), we detected higher EAA using both the Horvath and PhenoAge clocks in deceased vs recovered patients. The DNAmTL measurements revealed telomere attrition acceleration in deceased COVID19 patients between inclusion and end of follow-up as well as a significant change in dynamic telomere attrition acceleration when comparing patients who recovered vs those who died. In conclusion, EAA and telomere attrition acceleration was associated with treatment outcome in hospitalized COVID-19 Patients with ARDS. A better understanding of the long-term effects of EAA in COVID19 patients and how they might contribute to Long COVID symptoms in recovered individuals is urgently needed. ### Competing Interest Statement The authors have declared no competing interest.

Idk if anyone else is noticing this, but many of my neighbors in their 40’s & 50’s after not seeing them for 6 months-a year suddenly having full head of grey hair.. whereas before it was zero/few if any

Grey/white hair is a symptom of #telomere aging & happens as they shorten from stress etc

@Cahoowdy 🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️
it’s approximately every 2.5 months; i keep tabs

there’s 1 cashier who always double masks properly but her “excuse” is her mother is 80-something #peerPressure

have a 30 yr old acquaintance that i always talk to at my store &
she seems to be “managing” but can see in real time her health declining; she looks older than me..how old i should look (45)

can’t imagine how her internal organs are doing tho as not even full year of 0 caution #acceleratedAging #HBP #Rx

really believed,naive me,that when teenagers,celebrities & young people would start dropping dead, it would change things b/c #logic #airborneVirus

Was not prepared for people to be so tied to their #beliefs #perspectives #conspiracyTheory #vaccines that they would come up with any & all #excuses so they could dine in a #restaurant & not #wearAMask

#wtfever #wearTheMask or die young OR age on the inside like a Dorian Gray painting #choices #acceleratedAging #CovidIsNotACold #EndothelialDamage

Oh this isn’t me be scientific whatsoever🤣😂more my highly active imagination & experiencing it; estimated my lifespan to be 77 & started subtracting from there

But tbh more I learn about what this does #acceleratedAging #EndothelialDamage & hearing about relatively healthy men who are only 2-4 years older than me, drop suddenly dead of🫀issues…My dad died at 72 & was equally same<health at 48 as examples

I’ve been a fan of Chappelle for decades & idk details of what happened, but to be friendly w/this #fascist is too much

My aunt is a terrible human, but did learn from her the importance of who your friends were #badInfluence

Also multiple & constant unbridled exposures to #sarscov2 has been scientifically shown to do things to the brain #inflammation #dementia #alzheimers #acceleratedAging

I’m no #neuroscientist #psychologist #etc but I know #crazy when I see it🫥

“The vulnerability of older people to #viruses is neither surprising, nor new. The more we age, the more we accumulate scars from previous illness & chronic conditions that put us at higher risk of severe illness.”
#WeAreAllVulnerable
These articles always put in a couple truths easily missed; this had mask hypocrisy & “barring a new #variant
#narrative only old people die is #disingenuous & #dangerous

Until people #comprehend what #acceleratedAging is…

I’d really like to know how because based on behavior, people appear to believe it #delusion

I thought I was the most #gullible person in the world, but usually I fall for things only once.. & then you’re dead to me lol #cdc

at this point, months from now when they have sudden health issues, most won’t connect the dots & attribute it to aging..even if they’re younger #denial as this is an #acceleratedAging disease
