The paper (<a href=\"http:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/jhn.12403\/full\" target=\"_blank\">J-Y Lee et al, Journal of Human Nutrition and Dietetics, DOI: 10.1111\/jhn.12403, 2016<\/a>)\u00a0reported that people who consumed the most vitamin C and folic acid had the longest telomeres.<\/p>\n<p>You might be wondering how journalists extrapolated from that study to headlines proclaiming that those vitamins could slow biological aging. To understand the answer to that question you need to know two things:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>What is biological aging?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>What are telomeres and why are they important?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>What Is Biological Aging?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.chaneyhealth.com\/healthtips\/biological-aging\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-2078\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chaneyhealth.com\/healthtips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/biological-aging-300x242.jpg\" alt=\"biological aging\" width=\"300\" height=\"242\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chaneyhealth.com\/healthtips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/biological-aging-300x242.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.chaneyhealth.com\/healthtips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/biological-aging.jpg 392w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>In simplest terms, biological aging refers to the aging process on a cellular level. This concept is based on the \u201cHayflick Limit\u201d first proposed by Leonard Hayflick in 1962. He showed that normal human cells have a maximum lifespan of 40-60 cell divisions. As they approach that upper limit, DNA damage accumulates and cell division slows and eventually stops.<\/p>\n<p>The \u201cHayflick Limit\u201d is important because our tissues depend on constant cell division to remain young and vital. Our organs are made up of various tissues and depend on those tissues performing at an optimal level. Thus, as more and more cells lose the ability to divide, our tissues and our organs begin to age. This is thought to be associated with disease and eventually death.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, even though biological aging refers to aging at a cellular level, its significance is thought to extend far beyond the cellular level. It is thought to influence aging, disease, and death at a whole-body level. It reminds me of the famous quote \u201cFor want of a nail\u2026the kingdom was lost.\u201d If you\u2019ve forgotten that quote, look it up. It is a perfect analogy for how something that seems so inconsequential can have such a profound effect on our health and mortality.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What Are Telomeres And Why Are They Important?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.chaneyhealth.com\/healthtips\/anti-aging-vitamins-telomeres\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-2077\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chaneyhealth.com\/healthtips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/anti-aging-vitamins-telomeres-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"anti-aging vitamins telomeres\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chaneyhealth.com\/healthtips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/anti-aging-vitamins-telomeres-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.chaneyhealth.com\/healthtips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/anti-aging-vitamins-telomeres.jpg 369w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>Telomeres are sequences of repetitive DNA at the ends of our chromosomes that protect their integrity. Telomeres become progressively shorter as we age. As a very simple analogy we can think of telomeres as being similar to the tips of our shoelaces. If you have ever lost the tip of your shoelace, you know that the shoelace is worthless once the tip is gone.<\/p>\n<p>That analogy holds perfectly with respect to our telomeres. As the telomers become progressively shorter, DNA division slows and eventually stops. DNA division is essential for cell division. Telomere shortening is postulated to be responsible for the Hayflick Limit. Thus, it is no surprise that telomere shortening is associated with aging, age-related diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, heart disease and dementia, and death.<\/p>\n<p>Telomere shortening is a bad news, good news phenomenon. On the \u201cbad\u201d side, telomere shortening is inevitable. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but we will all die at some point.<\/p>\n<p>On the \u201cgood\u201d side, there is tremendous heterogeneity in telomere length between individuals at any given age. Some of these differences in telomere length may be genetic, but many appear to be lifestyle related (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC3370421\/\" target=\"_blank\">MA Shammas, Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition &amp; Metabolic Care, 14: 28-34, 2011<\/a>). For example, short telomers appear to be associated with things like smoking, environmental pollution, stress, meat consumption, and fat consumption. Long telomeres are associated with the lack of those things and with positive lifestyle characteristics such as exercise and consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center; color: #339966;\">Are Some Vitamins Anti-Aging Vitamins?<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.chaneyhealth.com\/healthtips\/slow-aging\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-2076\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chaneyhealth.com\/healthtips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/slow-aging-300x217.jpg\" alt=\"slow aging\" width=\"300\" height=\"217\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chaneyhealth.com\/healthtips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/slow-aging-300x217.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.chaneyhealth.com\/healthtips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/slow-aging.jpg 435w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>More recent studies have begun to look at the influence of individual nutrients on telomere length. The study featured this week (<a href=\"http:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/jhn.12403\/full\" target=\"_blank\">J-Y Lee et al, Journal of Human Nutrition and Dietetics, DOI: 10.1111\/jhn.12403, 2016<\/a>)\u00a0is just the latest example.<\/p>\n<p>This study used food frequency questionnaires to assess nutrient intake of 1958 middle-aged and older Koreans between June 2001 and January 2003. They measured intake of vitamins A, B1, B2, B3, B6, B9 (folate), C and E plus calcium, phosphorous, potassium iron and zinc.<\/p>\n<p>Ten years later they measured telomere length in the same population and reported that:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Telomere length was positively associated with intake of vitamin C, folate, and potassium.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>No association with telomere length was seen for the other nutrients.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>So, are these anti-aging vitamins? \u00a0Let&#8217;s look at the strengths and weaknesses of this study.<\/p>\n<p>This study has some notable strengths:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>It is a fairly large study, so the results are statistically significant.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>There is a good biochemical rationale for vitamin C and folate being protective for telomeres.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Antioxidants such as vitamin C, vitamin E, carotenoids, and polyphenols protect the DNA from oxidative damage.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Folic acid, vitamin B6, and vitamin B12 are involved in pathways that stabilize and repair DNA.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>It is consistent with previous studies (See below)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>However, this study also has some glaring weaknesses:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>It only measures associations, not cause and effect.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>The diet analysis was not repeated at the end of the study. The authors assumed that dietary habits did not change, but we don\u2019t know that.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>The use of dietary supplements was not assessed, so we don\u2019t know how that might have influenced the outcome.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>What Does This Study Mean For You?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If we look at the totality of published studies(<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC3370421\/\" target=\"_blank\">MA Shammas, Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition &amp; Metabolic Care, 14: 28-34, 2011<\/a>) :<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>There is good evidence that optimal intake of the antioxidants C and E is positively associated with telomere length.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>There is good evidence that optimal intake of folic acid and vitamin B12 is positively associated with telomere length.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>There is preliminary evidence that optimal intake of carotenoids, polyphenols, and omega-3 fatty acids is positively associated with telomere length.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>However, there is a lot we don\u2019t know about telomeres. We know that short telomeres are associated with aging, age-related diseases and death. What we do not know is whether telomere shortening is the cause of the aging process or merely a marker of aging. Let me rephrase those two possibilities in a more understandable manner.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>If telomere shortening is the cause of the aging process, anything we can do to decrease the rate of telomere shortening would slow the aging process and delay the onset of age-related diseases. \u00a0If the vitamins mentioned above then caused this decrease, they could\u00a0indeed be considered anti-aging vitamins.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>If telomere length is simply a marker of aging, we can consider it like the \u201ccanary in the coal mine\u201d. That analogy might be particularly apt. The value of the canary is that it can detect toxic gases when they are still undetectable to humans. It turns out that it is virtually impossible to detect the effect of nutrient intake on longevity (We simply live too long), and it has proven very difficult to determine the effect of nutrient intake on age-related diseases. Having a simple marker of the aging process may well give us valuable insight into how we can best delay the aging process.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Either way longer telomeres are probably a good thing. Based on a limit of 40-60 cell divisions for normal human cells, Leonard Hayflick estimated a maximum human lifespan of 120 years. If we could truly decrease the rate of telomere shortening, would that potentially increase maximum human lifespan or would it mean that more of us reach 120 in good health? Most of us would probably be happy with either outcome.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center; color: #3366ff;\">The Bottom Line<\/h3>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Telomeres are the tips at the end of our chromosomes that protect the chromosomes from unraveling.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Our telomeres get progressively shorter as we get older. Short telomeres are associated with aging, age-related diseases, and death.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Recent studies have shown that our lifestyle can influence the rate of telomere shortening.
