Brian Lera on WNYC. Now for the next few minutes, we're going to do something a little different.

We're going to have a call in on the question. At what age did you feel your body change in some way

that made you feel older? And how did you adjust to that physically or psychologically?

212-433 WNYC. At what age? and how did you adjust to that physically or psychologically?

212-433 W-N-YC. At what age did you feel your body change in some way that made you feel older?

And how did you adjust to that physically or psychologically?

212-433-9692. Why do I ask? Well, here's the news hook. We were surprised to see a new Stanford Medicine study that found that we tend to undergo two rapid periods of what the study calls

molecular aging at two specific ages, 44 and 60. And I thought, really, aren't we more individual than that? But the researchers say these ages, 44 and 60,

tend to be common points of noticeable change at what they call the molecular level, but which we

might experience more concretely than that. So have you seen this story, first of all,

originally published in the journal Nature Aging last week?

And at what age did you feel your body change in some way that made you feel older?

Was it 44?

Was it 60?

Or was it any other age?

And how did you adjust to that physically or psychologically?

212-433 WNYC, 433-9-6-9-2? Researchers wrote, if it's ever felt like everything in your body

is breaking down at once, that might not be your imagination. So listeners, I'm not sure that's how it

goes. I think often people experience their bodies as they age breaking down one piece at a time.

But help us report this story. Did you find that aging hit you particularly all at once

around your mid-40s or early 60s, particularly

hard. Call in to share how your body's changed during these time periods or any other time
