Higher dietary n - 3 PUFA and fiber intake are associated with longer leukocyte telomere length: Evidence from a substitution model analysis in the UK Biobank
4 Sept 2025
Abstract excerpt
Telomere attrition is a biomarker of cellular aging, influenced by lifestyle and dietary exposures. The specific role of macronutrient composition, particularly polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), in telomere dynamics remains insufficiently explored. We hypothesized that higher intake of specific macronutrients, particularly PUFAs, would be positively associated with leukocyte telomere length (LTL). In this...
