Researchers find stress early in life can extend lifespan
New research suggests that stress in early life could lead to a longer lifespan.
Researchers at the University of Michigan have found that early-life oxidative stress increases stress resistance in later life.
When cells produce too many oxidants or free radicals, they experience oxidative stress. This is a natural part of aging, but it can also be caused by stressful situations such as exercise or calorie restriction.
