Why do women’s brains age better than men’s? A new study from the University of California San Francisco has uncovered a fascinating secret! Scientists found that as women age, their second X chromosome “awakens,” unlocking genes that help protect brain function and slow cognitive decline. This discovery could lead to groundbreaking treatments for aging-related diseases in both men and women. Could this be the key to keeping our brains young longer? Watch now to find out!

00:00Did you know that women's brains age better than men's?
00:03A groundbreaking study from the University of California San Francisco has just revealed why.
00:08For years, scientists thought the second X chromosome in females wasn't doing much.
00:13But new research shows that as women age, this silent chromosome reactivates,
00:18unlocking genes that help protect brain function.
00:21Researchers found that this reawakening slows cognitive decline,
00:25keeping the female brain more resilient.
00:27This could explain why women often experience fewer age-related brain issues compared to men.
00:32And it doesn't stop there.
00:34Scientists believe this discovery could lead to new treatments for aging-related diseases for both men and women.
00:40Could this be the key to unlocking longer-lasting brain health?
