One day we look in the mirror and see a wrinkle, or notice some gray hairs. Where did they come from? What causes us to age?

Research into the process of aging (gerontology) has shown that are many reasons why we age.

Some of these reasons are:

• Gene mutation - This condition makes some to be biologically older by 3 to 4 years.
• Slow down of hormone production - As hormone production decreases the rate of aging exhilarates.
• Cellular changes - Affects the body's ability to fight re-new itself and compromises the immune system.
• The environment - Exposures to such thing as ultraviolet light, heat, air pollution are just few environmental problems that affect how you age.
• Lifestyle - Your lifestyle can either slow down or speed up how fast you age.
• Free radicals - The development of 'free radicals' contributes to skin aging.

These are just a few of the factors that explain why we age and contribute to the aging process. Some of these are inherited factors and are beyond our control but some we do have a degree of control over.It is important for you to take any action that will slow down this pace of aging. By doing so, you will not only have beautiful, healthy skin but you will extend your life expectancy.
