Researchers have demonstrated for the first time a link between diet, circadian rhythms, eye health and lifespan in Drosophila.

Rochester biologists who study the genetics of lifespan suggest novel targets to combat aging and age-related diseases.

Despite huge variation in lifespan and size, different animal species end their natural life with similar numbers of genetic changes.

In a study that followed hundreds of mice over their lifespans, calorie restriction combined with time-restricted eating boosted longevity.

Eating a hot dog could cost you 36 minutes of healthy life, while choosing to eat a serving of nuts instead could help you gain 26 minutes.

A novel approach to reverse aspects of aging-related deterioration in the brain and cognitive function via the microbes in the gut.

The first study to compare the accumulation of mutations across many animal species has shed new light on decades-old questions.

Lifelong physical activity could protect against age-related loss of muscle mass and function, according to new research.

Drinking coffee is not only associated with a lower risk of heart disease and dangerous heart rhythms but also with living longer.

The time of day that people with diabetes eat certain foods may be just as important to their well-being as portion size and calories

Researchers have found that body temperature exerts a greater effect on lifespan than metabolic rate.

New research from UGA shows every extra step counts when it comes to protecting the brain from the harmful effects of aging.

Salk researchers treated mice with anti-aging regimen beginning in middle age and found no increase in cancer or other health problems later

Between 30 and 60 minutes of muscle strengthening activity every week is linked to a 10-20% lower risk of death from all causes.

A landmark study linking greater metabolic health—achieved through a natural plant extract—with longer lifespans in C. elegans.

Study confirms the health benefits of moderate calorie restrictions in humans — and identifies a key protein that could extend health.

A young adult in the US could add more than a decade to their life by changing their diet from a typical Western diet to an optimized diet.

Eating a hot dog could cost you 36 minutes of healthy life, while choosing to eat a serving of nuts could help you gain 26 minutes of life.

Research showed a strong association between predicted retinal age and real age, with an overall accuracy to within 3.5 years.

Humans, who evolved to live many decades after they stopped reproducing, also evolved to be relatively active in their later years.
