    TITLE: Popular brain supplement linked to shorter lifespan in men

    URL: sciencedaily.com/releases/2026

    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.

  4. A quotation from The Bible

    The gladness of the heart is the life of man, and the joyfulness of a man prolongeth his days.
     
    [εὐφροσύνη καρδίας ζωὴ ἀνθρώπου,
    καὶ ἀγαλλίαμα ἀνδρὸς μακροημέρευσις.]

    The Bible (The Old Testament) (14th - 2nd C BC) Judeo-Christian sacred scripture [Tanakh, Hebrew Bible], incl. the Apocrypha (Deuterocanonicals)
    Book 22b. Sirach (Ecclesiasticus) 30:22ff (Sir 30:22) [tr. KJV (1611)]

  5. `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.`

  6. Why do #women outlive #men? A study of 1,176 species points to an answer.
    Body of evidence suggests women's #longevity may derive, from having double X #chromosomes, a redundancy that protects them against harmful mutations. The most sweeping analysis to date of #lifespan differences between males and females in more than 1,000 #mammal and #bird species.
    “From a #human standpoint, it’s really remarkable that women live longer across almost every country in the world”

  7. Globally, scientists are working to unlock the secrets of extending human #lifespan at the #cellular level, where #aging occurs gradually due to the shortening of #telomeres the protective caps at the ends of #chromosomes that function like shoelace tips to prevent unraveling.
