Promena u načinu ishrane i umerena fizička aktivnost produžavaju ljudski život

Po prvi put sada se to pokazuje i na nivou ljudskih ćelija!!!

"Major lifestyle changes can help improve levels of an enzyme called telomerase that controls cell aging, say California researchers."

"A carefully limited pilot study of 30 prostate cancer patients by scientists and doctors at UCSF and a Sausalito research institute indicates for the first time that major lifestyle changes may prevent early cell death and lengthen human life.

The research team studied the levels of an enzyme called telomerase in the prostate tissue of the 30 cancer patients who had volunteered to follow a low-fat diet, exercise moderately and reduce their stress. After only three months, 24 patients showed a highly significant increase in their telomerase levels - an indication that the cell-protecting telomeres in their cells were being restored."
