Ageing is a series of gradual changes which produces the degeneration of body cells. As our bodies age, leads to the increase of damage of healthy cells. Our old bodies simply cannot regenerate cells to compensate for the cell loss of the body. This results the impairment of the normal function of organs, systems and organisms as a whole.
Ageing process:
Very potent toxins that invade our bodies, attacks and destroys the cells causing healthy cells to die prematurely.
In younger ages anti – oxidant defense system functions well by controlling up the toxins before they can cause damage, but in old age the anti-oxidant defense system becomes less efficient through down regulation of oxidative enzymes.
As a result these toxins increases and impairs cellular regulation and functioning and triggers ageing symptoms as wells as many diseases.
We can better understand the ageing process by Shakespeare’s poem – ‘All the world is a stage'.
The poet has explained by the poem, how a man or woman ages. Here, Poet gives a beautiful descriptions about seven ages (Infancy to old age).
Ageing of skin:
As the skin are a part of an external organ so they experience heavier damage and are exposed to more harmful elements.
These harmful elements (Toxins) damages the critical structural element of skin which causes the skin to collapse and form wrinkles.
The rapid rate at which skin cells divide causes a shorter life span for the cell and as we mature, the number of skin cells in our body’s decreases.
Our skin becomes thinner and thinner as a result of this. The more skin cells in our body, healthier our skin will be and the less wrinkles we will have.
How to retard the ageing process and arrest the degeneration of cells:
– There are many milder techniques such as sun avoidance and herbal facial creams containing aloe Vera, etc.

intense helplessness.
– Previous exposure to trauma: It can cause A.S.D. Individuals with a history of abuse or childhood trauma may experience A.S.D as a reaction to anew traumatic event.
– Brain abnormalities: A deficiency in brain hormones and abnormal brain structure
can impair the brains ability to regulate the body’s response to stress and increase the
likelihood that a person will develop the disorder after a traumatic event.
– Brain injury: A traumatic brain injury may damage the part of the brain that is
responsible for regulating stress and anxiety.

restlessness , anxiety .
