“This makes telomeres important markers of biological age, or how worn down our cells are,” said Scott Ogletree, corresponding author of a paper on the study and a former postdoctoral researcher at North Carolina State University’s Center for Geospatial Analytics. “And we know that many variables – such as stress – can influence how quickly our telomeres wear down.”
The CDC's National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey for the years 1999-2002 served as the study's data source. Through interviews and physical tests, the NHANES longitudinal, nationally representative study evaluates the health of the American population. “We found that the more greenspace people had in their neighborhoods, the longer their telomeres were,” said Aaron Hipp, co-author of the study and a professor of parks, recreation and tourism management at NC State. “That was true regardless of race, economic status, whether they were drinkers or smokers, etc.
