This article is really worth reading... it supports everything we talk about here regarding supplements. Below is just a portion,,, they go on to discuss magnesium and vitamin d and others.
The healthy function of your telomeres requires adequate methylation in order to work properly, turning genes on and off to regulate appropriate telomereA telomere is a repeating sequence of DNA at the end of a chromosome. Each time a cell replicates and divides the telomere loses some of its length. Eventually the telomere runs out and the cell can no longer divide and rejuvenate, triggering a poor state of cell health that contributes to disease risk and eventual cell death. function. Methylation is a chemistry process of donating a methyl group (one carbon atom bonded to three hydrogen atoms —CH3) to the genetic material of the telomereA telomere is a repeating sequence of DNA at the end of a chromosome. Each time a cell replicates and divides the telomere loses some of its length. Eventually the telomere runs out and the cell can no longer divide and rejuvenate, triggering a poor state of cell health that contributes to disease risk and eventual cell death., which epigenetically marks the telomeres so they can behave properly.
The important point to understand is that you need an adequate supply of methyl donors in order for your telomeres to work properly, just like your car needs gasoline. The primary methyl donor for this purpose is called SAMe, which uses nutrients like methionine An essential amino acid which serves as a methyl donor and is involved with the biosynthesis of other nutrients. Improper conversion is associated with production of homocysteine and atherosclerosis., MSM sulfur, choline, and trimethylglycine as building blocks. Forming SAMe from these building blocks requires vitamin B12, folic acid, and vitamin B6.
Folic acid and B12 actually play multiple roles in supporting telomereA telomere is a repeating sequence of DNA at the end of a chromosome. Each time a cell replicates and divides the telomere loses some of its length. Eventually the telomere runs out and the cell can no longer divide and rejuvenate, triggering a poor state of cell health that contributes to disease risk and eventual cell death. genomic stability.
The most important basic supplement to help your telomeres is a good quality multiple vitamin along with adequate dietary protein, especially proteins that contain sulfur. Examples include whey protein, eggs, cottage cheese, dairy, red meat, chicken, legumes, duck, nuts, and seeds. Eggs contain the highest source of choline in the diet, with others such as red meat, chicken, dairy, nuts, and seeds containing moderate amounts.
For a good mood, your brain also has a high need for methyl donors. If you are stressed-out or depressed you are typically lacking methyl donors, which means your telomeres are also running low of nourishment and prone to accelerated aging. This is a major reason why stress ages a person.
This simple fact can help you determine your personal “minimum daily requirement” for methyl donors. You may want to increase your B vitamin intake. Either take more of your multi vitamin or take an extra B-complex, along with adequate protein and possible other cofactors such as MSM sulfur, choline, and trimethylglycine, to the point that you can definitely tell your energy and your mood are better. You can assume that if you have enough methyl donors to help your brain function then you most likely have enough to help your telomeres with basic nourishment.

Eventually we will find (mostly in retrospect, of course) that we can be very grateful to those people who have made life most difficult for us.
