Do you know what premature aging is?

If you are about to turn 30 or have already crossed that milestone and your first wrinkle has already appeared, this is for you. In an interview with Dr. Ullianov Peralta Armendáriz, Clinical Researcher at the Higher School of Medicine and Medical Training Manager at Andrómaco Pharmaceutical Industry, we were able to resolve all the doubts we had about a problem that affects most women and men today. It is about premature aging. But how does it happen? At what age does it start? What are its causes? Here are the answers:   What is premature aging? Although its name says it all, for a clearer definition, premature aging is the damage that your body may suffer or is already suffering simply because it is alive. It occurs over the years when physical and mental abilities become deficient and is caused by internal and external factors.   What factors provoke premature aging? There are various theories that try to explain why we age, among them some are based on the genetic information we carry since birth. Another cause and one of the main ones is the generation of free radicals, which accelerate the aging process, as they have the ability to shorten the lifespan of each cell in our body, making us look older than we actually are.   At what age does premature aging occur? In reality, aging begins from the moment we are born, but while we are children, there are a large number of mechanisms that minimize the damage; however, starting from the age of 30, we begin to have evident signs of aging, which is when we believe we have started to age. It is also when we realize that it is inevitable to reverse this process.   Which parts of the body are most affected by aging? In reality, this process occurs in all our organs and can manifest externally on our skin through wrinkles, dark spots, presence of spider veins or venous networks; and in internal factors such as chronic fatigue, progressive memory loss, damage to blood vessels, and the appearance of cancer cells.   What can trigger this cycle? If you have habits like a high-calorie diet, low consumption of fruits and vegetables, are used to drinking and smoking, exercise is not your best ally, and you are constantly exposed to sunlight, beware! these could be the causes of your body aging more quickly.   How to prevent premature aging in 7 steps? 1.
