Things Worth Noting
Vitamin D, the “sunshine vitamin,” may slow biological aging by supporting cellular health, reducing inflammation, and protecting against age-related diseases. It promotes telomere maintenance, epigenetic regulation, and mitochondrial function, while combating inflammaging and cellular senescence. Found in fatty fish, fortified foods, and supplements, vitamin D is also synthesized through sunlight exposure. Deficiency, common globally, accelerates […]
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental condition driven by genetic, environmental, and neurobiological factors. Genetics, with 50-90% heritability, involves polygenic risk, rare mutations like copy number variations, and syndromes like Fragile X. Epigenetic changes, such as DNA methylation, link genes to environmental influences. Prenatal exposures—toxins, maternal infections, or obesity—disrupt fetal brain development, while […]
