This study, which was published in the American Association for the Advancement of Science's journal, was able to identify the specific molecule, called NRF1, responsible for maintaining telomeres. Exercise, spending 45 minutes on a stationary bicycle in this case, reportedly boosted the levels of NRF1 and kept the cells "younger."

"Think about NRF1 like varnish on nails,” Decottignies told TIME Magazine. “You cannot change the nail, but you can change the varnish again and again. What you’re doing is refreshing and replacing the old section with new protective molecules at the telomeres.”
