Mental Attitude: Frequent Nightmares May Increase Risk of Premature Death.
Telomeres are protective DNA sequences at the ends of chromosomes that shorten with each cell division, acting as a biological clock that contributes to cellular and overall aging. A recent study found that individuals who experience recurring nightmares show accelerated telomere shortening, likely driven by elevated cortisol levels released in response to stress-inducing dreams. This faster cellular aging is linked to a higher risk of chronic diseases at younger ages and may increase the likelihood of premature death.
