In a study of 726 U.S. women, researchers found that those with greater anxiety about getting older — especially fears about future health decline — showed signs of faster biological aging in their blood. Scientists measured this using advanced epigenetic clocks, tools that detect molecular aging through DNA changes. The findings suggest that aging anxiety may become biologically embedded, meaning our mindset about aging could influence how our bodies age at the cellular level. Details here.
