Elevated Aldosterone-Renin Ratio Tied to Atrial Fibrillation and Stroke in Older Adults

A prospective US cohort study leveraging data from 3,477 participants (mean age 74.8 years; 61.5% female) in the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) study has found that higher aldosterone-renin ratio (ARR) is independently associated with increased cardiovascular risk over nearly a decade of follow-up. Researchers measured serum aldosterone and renin […]


Multivitamins May Slow Biological Aging

A recent study suggests that daily multivitamin-mineral supplements could slightly slow the biological aging process in older adults, though the effect size is modest and requires further investigation. As part of the COSMOS trial, researchers analyzed data from 958 participants over two years using advanced “epigenetic clocks”—DNA methylation measures that […]
