LONDON: Your lifespan is affected by the rate at which your body expands early in life, claim scientists, adding that if your growth in childhood is slow you may live longer. Bodies which grow quickly accumulate greater tissue damage, with life-shortening results, a study showed.
A team from Glasgow University looked at growth patterns in stickleback fish and altered the growth rate of 240 fish by exposing them to cold or warm spells, putting them ahead or behind their normal growth schedule, the Daily Mail reported.
Researchers found the fish got back on track once their environmental temperature was returned to normal, but the change in growth rate affected their rate of ageing. The slow-growing fish lived for around 30% longer than the stickleback's two-year average, with a lifespan of nearly 1,000 days.
The lifespan of the fast-growing fish was 15% shorter than normal.
