Half of the participants were then asked to engage in what the researchers call "affect labeling," filling in responses to the prompt "I feel _________," while the other half were asked to complete a neutral shape-matching task.

Mortality rates in the United States fell by 40% from 1900 to 1940 and life expectancy rose from forty-seven to sixty-three, note researchers David M. Cutler and Grant Miller.

Aging is not currently regarded as a disease, but researchers tend increasingly to view it as the common origin of conditions like insulin resistance or cardiovascular disease, whose incidence rises with age. In treating cell aging, we could prevent these diseases.

Along with that, people with a gene variation that robs them of BDNF are more likely to have learning deficiencies.
