Chronological age and biological age are not the same however.  Your chronological age is not so important.  Your biological age, involving the changes in your abilities, in your level of fitness and in the general way your body works and reacts is very important and is how we really define the process of ‘aging’.

 

Premature aging manifests itself in numerous ways and can involve any or all of your essential organs. The function of your central nervous system, brain, immune system, endocrine system and cardiovascular system are all affected. Your connective and muscular tissues are also affected.

Conditions that suggest you are aging prematurely or are affected by the signs of aging include:

Cataracts
Atherosclerosis
Low hormone levels (DHEA, Testosterone, Estrogens)
Chronic inflammation
Osteoporosis
Greying of hair amongst many other factors

 

This site endeavours to give information on ways we, as individuals responsible for our well being, can take care of ourselves in every possible way to slow down the aging process and nuture our health, our bodies and let us lead healthy lives as long as we possible can.
