Why some women NEVER AGE

Have you ever met someone who didn’t look its age? Why do some people age quicker than others? A new study from Harvard University in collaboration with other companies, suggests a possible explanation as to why there are people who never age. The results of this study may surprise you.

Women who never age

In the study a wide range of women, from 2 different ethnic groups, were tested for “ Methuselah genes” –that offer a more effective DNA repair. As an example, think of the sun, people with these genes are more protected from the sun than those who don’t have them. Alexa Kimball, a dermatology professor at Harvard led the study in which a group of scientists also participated.

The study revealed that Methuselah genes are found in 1 out of 5 black Americans. On the other hand, only 1 in 10 white Americans is a carrier.  Therefore, if you naturally have a darker complexion, chances are you may have won the genetic lottery in the aging department.

SPF is a must

Despite the fact of new evidence suggesting who are the people that could age quicker, it is very important to always protect ourselves from the sun no matter what. For healthy, glowing skin Hydrate and protect it on a daily basis.

With science advancing every day, I am sure more studies are going to help women understand in more depth the pros and cons of their genetics. For now, let’s keep in mind that taking care of our skin is a must, as it is the largest organ we have in our bodies.
