<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Inside our cells, we have DNA, and on your DNA are little wick-like caps called telomeres. The length of those wicks is the key to determining how quickly you’re aging. The shorter your telomeres, the more the aging.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In today’s episode, Dr. Martin looks at two studies… one out of Ohio State University showing that high doses of DHA will not only protect your telomeres, but also help to lengthen them. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The second study is about coffee… the true vitamin C as Dr. Martin refers to it. Coffee is a very powerful antioxidant and it actually protects your DNA. This study from the European Journal of Nutrition is reporting a 23% improvement to your telomeres in only four weeks!</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Be sure to listen to this episode to learn more about anti-aging, and why it’s so important to protect your telomeres!</span></p> <p> </p>
