Hello friend. Taking care of your health can feel like a lot of work. A new report shares fresh details on how our bodies age over time.
What's new
Researchers at Yale looked at fifty one studies. They found that certain prescription drugs, healthy diets, and exercise can slow down biological aging. At the same time, popular anti-aging supplements do not seem to do much. It is still not certain if these changes will actually help people live longer lives.
What it means for you
You might wonder how to use this news in your daily routine. Eating healthy foods and moving your body are good choices. If you have questions about any prescription drugs, please ask your doctor or pharmacist.
One small thing to try
Take a short walk outside today to enjoy some fresh air and movement.
