 There are hundreds of potions and lotions on the market claiming to reverse our natural ageing process on the outside, but have you considered what lies within? While you literally try to save your skin, the body underneath is still racking up the years and there may be trouble ahead. Seeing a chiropractor could improve that situation.
Our body constantly has to replace itself. The 75 trillion cells that make us into human beings are replaced either every few days as with the bowel, or every few months as with red blood cells. As the old cells die, a photocopy of that cell replaces it. But there's a problem. The body can't quite match the quality of the DNA in the old cell and we're left with an inferior copy. This is the ageing process.
One theory of ageing is that an accumulation of inferior cells leads to deterioration in the function of our body and soon symptoms, such as joint pain, begin to appear. How quickly we age depends upon each individual and factors such as exposure to toxins and infections can also decrease |
