Got a Drinking Problem? Do you know? Well, Heads up! If you have an AUD (Alcohol Use Disorder) then you are aging faster than others!
Biological aging markers in blood and brain tissue indicate age acceleration in alcohol use disorder Conclusions: The present study is the first to simultaneously investigate epigenetic clocks, telomere length, and mtDNAcn in postmortem brain and whole blood samples in individuals with AUD. We found evidence for accelerated biological aging in AUD in blood and brain, as measured by Levine's epigenetic clock, and DNAmTL.
