What are the two rapid bursts of aging? A study reveals the accelerated phases

Research published in *Nature Aging* indicates that humans do not age at a steady, linear pace, but instead undergo significant molecular changes in sudden bursts. Specifically, a Stanford study identified two rapid bursts of aging that occur on average around ages 44 and 60. These periods involve massive shifts in thousands of molecules and microbes within the body, impacting overall health.
