Frequent museum visits tied to reduced cellular aging, research finds
A recent study from the United Kingdom suggests that frequent visits to museums and participation in creative activities may slow biological aging. Researchers analyzed data from over 3,500 adults and found that those engaged in arts and cultural activities exhibited signs of slower aging. The findings indicate that such activities could have health benefits comparable to physical exercise.
- ▪The study was conducted by researchers from University College London.
- ▪Adults who frequently engaged in arts and cultural activities showed slower biological aging according to DNA-based measurements.
- ▪The association between arts participation and reduced aging was stronger among adults over age 40.
