SPQR<p>Researchers found that compared with the group taking the placebo, those taking vitamin D supplements had reduced telomere shortening over four years. Omega-3 fatty acid supplementation, on the other hand, had no obvious effect on telomere length.<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/physiology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>physiology</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/nutrition" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>nutrition</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/health" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>health</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/wellbeing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>wellbeing</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/fitness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>fitness</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/genetics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>genetics</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/disease" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>disease</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/aging" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>aging</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/pathology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>pathology</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/chromosome" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>chromosome</span></a> <br><a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/wellness/2025/05/22/vitamin-d-aging-telomere-study/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">washingtonpost.com/wellness/20</span><span class="invisible">25/05/22/vitamin-d-aging-telomere-study/</span></a></p>
