How to grow telomeres?

Telomere growth (or extension) is primarily driven by the enzyme telomerase, which adds repetitive DNA sequences to the ends of chromosomes. However, there is no simple way to “grow” telomeres naturally in humans outside of experimental conditions. While lifestyle factors such as regular physical exercise, a healthy diet rich in antioxidants, and stress management may help protect telomeres from excessive shortening, they have not been shown to directly increase telomere length. Research on telomere lengthening strategies, including telomerase activation, is still ongoing.
