Rapid metabolism, long life
2004/09/01 Elhuyar Zientzia Iturria: Elhuyar aldizkaria
A study conducted with mice reveals that rapid metabolic velocity live longer than those of slower metabolism.
Although the slow metabolism is longer compared to species, in a study carried out with mice, it is observed that those of rapid metabolic velocity live longer than those of slower metabolism.
For the research, the oxygen consumption of mice was measured and it was verified that those of rapid metabolism consumed 30% more oxygen and lived an average of a third more than those of slow metabolism. It seems that mice of rapid metabolism better prevent the spread of free radicals that cause aging.
