The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
what I see is that people with a BMI of 28 or above so that's considered obese have much much higher levels of these double stranded Brakes in their DNA compared to people that are lean people that have a BMI of 25 or below
I see that obese people have significantly more of this DNA damage than people that are lean specifically of these double stranded breaks because gamma h2ax signifies a double stranded Break
not only do they the obese have higher DNA damage but their capacity to repair that damage is also diminished
it damages DNA causes doubl stranded breaks to DNA which is the precursor to oncogenic mutations and it fundamentally accelerates the aging process
