Why do some people seem to age better than others?!


Question: Why do some people seem to age better than others!?
I've noticed some people seem to maintain their youthful looks well into their old age, whilst others seem to age really quickly!. Why is there such disparity within the human race when it comes to ageing and the effect it has on our bodies!? Is it genetic!? Or is it solely down to lifestyle and diet!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

Answers:
I am sure a lot of it is genetic and if you are lucky enough to have been born of slim healthy parents, the chances are you will be the same into old age!. Healthy eating helps but again it is really down to your metabolism as fat people will remain fat despite many attempts at dieting, with few exceptions!. Those lucky enough to be slim throughout their lives are just programmed like that with no effort!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
it's genetics! If you're born with darker skin or more oily skin you will wrinkle less and your face will look more youthful!. But if you have fair skin or skin that tends to be dry more likely than not you'll wrinkle up like a prune!. Also it's how you take care of yourself!. If you have more money you can afford to have expensive treatments, or if you were raised with good hygiene habits you might take more care of yourself!. But mostly it's the hand you've been dealt!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I believe its a mixture of both genetic and lifestyle!. If you have inherite a good facial bone structure you certainly have a head start on aging well but after that its down to taking care of yourself!.

Health/bodywise its again a mixture but certainly keeping active and also a positive attitude towards life helps!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I think it may be a mixture of both!. Genetics help immensely, however lifestyle is the determining factor!. You can definitely can help yourself age better!. Limit the amount of time you spend in the sun, or at least wear a good quality sunblock!.!.!.cliche!.!.but!.!.water, water, water, and keep control of the food that you put into your body!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Genetics also!. Just because you look a bit grey and wrinkled outside doesn't mean your body is not in better shape, and healthier than someone else who looks superficially younger!.

Also, people age at different rates then stop!. So someone who looks old for 25 might look a young 50 year old!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It has a lot to do with how well they treated their bodies as they came to age!. People that are in the sun a lot ages their skin!. People with oily skin tend to keep youthful looks!. But mostly it is eating healthy!. The rest is in genetics!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I'm 24, and the father of my child is 30, he looks younger than I do, and I still get carded when I go out (age of majority is 19 here)!.

I don't know why that is, I have a healthier lifestyle than he does!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
It really has to do with lifestyle and diet!. A person who is overweight is going to look older; a person who constantly sunbathes is going to get more wrinkles and look older!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
there are a few reasons:
1 genetics (mainly)
2 health/lifestyle
3 stress
4 smoking
those are the main ones

Genetics and lifestyles, some people never drink water to keep their bodies and skin hydrated thus resulting in wrinkles earlier in life and sagging body bits!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
