Beyond the Buzz: How Your Coffee Might Be Slowing Down Aging

Your daily brew might be doing more than just shaking off the morning grogginess! A recent study from Queen Mary University of London found that caffeine could actually slow down cellular aging.

This little jolt could influence cell growth, DNA repair, and stress response, all vital factors in the aging process. So go ahead, enjoy that coffee — your cells might just thank you for it!
