Your DNA holds the key to how fast (or slow) you age—and it all starts with telomeres. In this video, we explore the science behind telomeres, the tiny protective caps at the ends of your chromosomes that determine your biological age.
Discover 4 powerful, science-backed lifestyle strategies to slow down telomere shortening, boost cellular health, and live a longer, healthier life—without extreme measures or expensive supplements.
✨ You’ll learn: ✅ What telomeres are and why they matter for aging
✅ How your mindset affects your cells (you’ll love the janitor story!)
✅ The role of diet, exercise, sleep, and stress perception in protecting telomeres
✅ How adopting a "sage perspective" on stress can help you live younger, longer
💡 This video is perfect for busy professionals, health-conscious parents, or anyone looking to improve their longevity through practical, science-based habits.
