SOURCE: SCIENCE DAILY MIND-BRAIN FEEDTITLE: Popular brain supplement linked to shorter lifespan in men
URL: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/09/260904000330.htm
A large study involving more than 270,000 people has linked higher blood levels of the amino acid tyrosine to a shorter lifespan in men. Using both observational data and genetic analysis, researchers found that elevated tyrosine could potentially reduce male life expectancy by nearly a year, while no significant effect appeared in women. Tyrosine is found naturally in protein-rich foods and is also sold as a supplement for boosting focus and mental performance, making the finding especially intriguing.

Experiments with the nematode *Caenorhabditis elegans* found that feeding with a magnetotactic bacterium reduces ferroptosis--a type of programmed cell death that is dependent on iron--and extended lifespan by as much as 40%. Neural function was also improved in older worms.

My latest video is about prenatal and infant development. It begins the part of my series on developmental psychology, where I go over the psychological development of a person throughout their whole life, from before to after their death.

`We report that plasma concentrations of ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase-L1 (UCH-L1) and neurofilament light (NfL) become exponentially higher from ages 2 to 85 in cross-sectional samples, serving as neuronal death/damage biomarkers across the lifespan.`
