The term Anti Aging means different things to different people and also depends on your age and to some degree is governed by fashion and culture.
To a 50 year old woman it may mean "I want to reduce my wrinkles". To a 21 year old girl it may mean "How can I keep my skin like this for the next 15 years?" To a 30 year old man it may mean "How can I keep my current fitness for the
next 30 years?"
This article is aimed at a particular group of people you are interested in anti aging, mainly 20 to 30 year olds. If you are in another group or have some other interest in anti aging you may like to visit my web site
