The doctor explained that people who look older than their age have a higher risk of dementia. Age appearance indicates that the body is aging faster than its actual age along with its appearance.
“Because we all age at different rates. And if you have a friend around you who looks like he is 80 at the age of 50, then you will understand that his aging process, namely introversion, is progressing faster. This isn’t just about looks. This includes the development of skeletal muscles, brain, etc. It means you’re more likely to age faster,” said the geriatrician.
