If you’re wondering why some people look quite older or younger than their actual age, then the answer may be in the DNA. And while appearing younger than you actually are may be considered a gift, the opposite of that… hmmm, not really!
What we are certainly aware of is that we are trying to guess these people’s age based on what we see, that is the appearance alone though, is an impossible task and the people in this compilation will prove this.
“There are two things we don’t know: what part of perceived age does it influence, and how does it do it,” said Manfred Kayser, Erasmus Medical Center forensic molecular biology professor who worked with the Unilever team. “By finding more genes involved in perceived age, we can better understand the relationship between how old you look and how healthy you are,” Kayser further explained.
Don’t forget too that putting all the blame on genes may not be the best idea as other factors can just as to make you look old. These include the food you eat, exposure to sunlight, smoking, and even your attitude.
As genetics play a big role in how fast or slow we age compared to other people, in the cases of the following people you’re about to witness, those genetics are certainly strong. Take a look for yourself, and if you are one of those people who look way younger than your actually age, how does it feel to be God’s favorite? 🙄
