You probably know off by heart many of the causes of external aging. They include: cigarette smoking, excess alcohol, sun damage, poor nutrition, air pollution, weight gain, lack of exercise and stress.

The really good news is that you can pursue anti aging health, re-kindle your positive zest for life and help yourself to look younger in the process.
