CLA study conducted by scientists at Tokyo Institute of Science found that older adults who regularly engage in cultural activities such as visiting museums, theaters, concerts, and cinemas have significantly younger physiological ages compared to those who rarely participate. The research, published in the journal 'Epidemiology & Community Health,' suggests these activities may contribute to healthier aging. The study analyzed data from 1,899 participants in the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing, measuring various health indicators to calculate their physiological age. Those with higher cultural participation had an average physiological age of 66.9 years, while those with lower participation had an average of 69.9 years, showing a difference of approximately three years.
