Simply put—no one wants to look older than they are.
The way your body functions and how well you feel physically surely depends on your age. But did you know your body could be showing signs of aging that don’t align with the number of candles you blew out on your last birthday?
While chronological age is something we’re all familiar with, biological age is a little harder to determine. It represents the amount your body has aged due to lifestyle factors like smoking, sun exposure, environmental hazards, and diet. So your body may be older than you consider yourself to be. By the same token, this is good news! It means you have some control over the aging process, and can also end up offsetting the wear and tear that naturally comes with age by eating better, exercising, and quitting bad habits like smoking or excessive tanning.
