About The Study: In this multiple-events case-control study, long-term obesity was associated with the expression of biochemical aging markers in adults ages 28 to 31, consistent with epigenetic alterations, telomere attrition, chronic inflammation, impaired nutrient sensing, mitochondrial stress, and compromised intercellular communication. In young adults, chronic health issues may emerge from accelerated biological aging associated with long-term obesity.
