What’s this mans biological age?
We all know our chronological age, i.e. how long ago we were born. But few are aware of their biological age, i.e. how old the body is on the inside. As we live, our cells and organs wear out - it's inevitable. Is it possible to slow down the aging process? Yes, at least to some extent. It doesn't seem to be pre-programmed into the genes how quickly our bodies wear out, while time has its usual course, biological aging has its own pace. Buying your youth through anti-wrinkle treatment is not possible - the inside is the only thing that counts.
Physical activity and a healthy weight profoundly change biological age.
What we eat and how much we put in also seems to play a role. A plant-based diet can protect against premature aging, an old trick to slow down your biological aging process is to reduce your calorie intake.
Eating can be real fun
