“Study. _See also 0:24:32. 00:29:05 - The impact of sex-differences when it comes to lifespan and some of the mechanisms that may be driving a part of that.”

“These findings indicate that the androgen clock may be an effective tool for investigating how sex hormones influence aging. Learn more about epigenetic aging in this episode featuring Dr. Steve Horvath, one of the investigators involved in this study.”

“Those whose blood showed an increase in the proportion of omega-6 fats over the six years were considerably less likely to develop metabolic syndrome, regardless of age, sex, body mass index, weight change, or lifestyle habits.”

“Interestingly, they found no associations between altering men's activity levels and sleep quality, highlighting the sex-related differences in response to exercise. These findings indicate that engaging in moderate- to vigorous-intensity physical activity improves sleep quality in middle-aged women.”

“The effects of gardening on sleep were dose-dependent, with sleep problems decreasing as weekly gardening time increased. The benefits of gardening were consistent, even after considering other factors that influence sleep, such as age, sex, education level, and body mass index.”

“The losses appeared to be related to sex-specific increases in blood leukocyte counts and inflammation, as evidenced by higher levels of C-reactive protein. These findings point to the importance of maintaining a healthy body weight throughout life as a strategy to reduce or prevent cognitive decline.”

“They found that reducing high blood pressure cut the risk of a person developing dementia by approximately 13 percent, even after considering a person's age, sex, history of stroke, body mass index, and whether they had diabetes.”

“Researchers collected information from more than 600 older adults regarding their age, sex, education, use of beta-blockers (drugs that lower heart rate), and APOE4 gene status (a genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's).”

“They found that a higher intake of the omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA was associated with less DNA damage. These findings held true even after considering other factors that influence DNA integrity, such as the children's age, sex, body mass index, and others.”

“In whole blood, the relationship can be sex‐dependent and nonlinear. For supplementation discussions, it suggests that 1) blood NAD is not a universal aging biomarker, and 2) trial design/stratification by sex and age bands may be important.”
