@DrEricKim & co explored associations b/w optimism & telomere length in older adults.
Findings did not support telomeres as a mechanism to explain the relationship b/w optimism & reduced chronic disease.
More research is needed to underpin mechanisms https://bit.ly/3lKQj8i ">https://bit.ly/3lKQj8i&q...
