The Truth of Ageing – Face it or Leave it, As This is The Cycle of Life! Part 2

Ok, Three days ago we've talked about the ageing of brain, lung and skin. Today, we will continue with the ageing problem (Hope this will not scare you off) and we start with the hair.

Hair (The ageing will start at 30)

The hair loss is a common issue, especially the male hair loss that normally begins in the 30s. For your information, a hair usually grows from each follicle for about three years, then it will shed and replace with a new hair grows. If a person having male-pattern baldness, this can be a serious matter as it will eventually causing the hair follicle to shrink and in the end, no hair will be grown out at all!

Grey hair, this is caused by the inactive of Melanocytes, which is a colored pigment produced by cells in the hair follicle. That is why, when we become older, less pigment is produced and which means, the grey hair will grow out as a results.

Muscles (The muscle ageing will start at 30)

Muscles are continuously being built up and broken down each year. By the time we're reached 30, the breakdown process seems to be more rapid than the buildup. Moreover, when the adult reach his/her 40, they will start to lose between 0.5 and 2 percent of their muscle each year! Doctor advised us to do regular exercises to prevent this problem.
