Divorce Makes You Older
A scientific study has found that twins who had been divorced appeared nearly two years older than their siblings who were married, single or even widowed. Plastic Surgeon Bahaman Guyuron and colleagues had independent observers look at digital images of 186 pairs of identical twins.
“A person’s heritage may initially dictate how they age but if you introduce certain factors into your life, you will certainly age faster. Likewise, if you avoid those factors you can slow down the hands of time,” said Dr. Guyuron.
“In this study, we looked at identical twins because they are genetically programmed to age exactly the same, and in doing so we essentially discovered that, when it comes to your face, it is possible to cheat your biological clock.”
The study found that weight and antidepressants could also make one twin look older.
