The 40s vs. 60s: What’s Changing?
In your 40s, the study found big shifts in molecules related to stuff like alcohol and caffeine metabolism, heart health, and even your skin and muscles. By your 60s, the changes are more about your immune system, kidney function, and how your body handles carbs and caffeine.
Some of these changes might be linked to lifestyle. For example, if you’re hitting the wine a little harder in your 40s, that could explain some of the shifts in alcohol metabolism. But the researchers aren’t entirely sure yet, they’re planning to find out what’s causing these changes.
