Reproduction and Aging

Reproduction is energetically costly and can accelerate aging in organisms due to trade-offs between investing resources in reproduction versus somatic maintenance. The "Disposable Soma Theory" suggests organisms allocate resources to reproduction at the expense of somatic maintenance, potentially leading to accelerated aging. Studies in various organisms, including humans, indicate links between reproductive history, such as early or frequent childbirth, and accelerated aging markers. Evolutionary theories propose trade-offs between reproductive success and longevity, influencing strategies for resource allocation across the lifespan. Understanding these relationships informs research on aging processes, reproductive health, and strategies to promote healthy aging across different species and populations.
