Smoking and obesity, stealing 10 years of age

Smoking and obesity, stealing 10 years of agehttp://www.cumbriacrack.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/smokingobesity.jpg
If you are obese and a smoker also, you look older than their real age about 10 years at least .. This is evidenced by new genetic study conducted on twins in both Britain and the United States e recently.
The This study showed that smoking and excess weight caused by the accumulation of fat excess in the body, affect the basic and important of biological aging in humans, Vtjolh seem older at the cellular level, which is actually, which speeds up the turn, the emergence of diseases of aging, which accompany the progress in Age, Ktsalb arteries and inflammation of the joints.
The researchers said in a research unit twins Hospital of St. Thomas in London, The man who smokes 20 cigarettes a day for 40 years adds about 7.4 years to age diversity, while adding the person fat 8.8 years to the old real, and add more years if accompanied by smoking, obesity .
He warned them that the smoker fat seems older by about 10 years at least, from the biological standpoint, ie, that cells from older cells than in the same age, who does not smoke and does not suffer from obesity.
They say that small caps on the end of the chromosomes carrying the genetic material at the creatures, known as the "Taylomirat," maintain the integrity of DNA and genes, so they called the "time aberrations," because it is responsible for the biological aging of cells.
And interpreted by these researchers is that these telomeres shorten in length with each division of the cell until it reaches a certain point can not then protect the DNA and the genetic material, which leads to normal aging, and human infection with many diseases associated with them, and thus determine the duration of his life at the age of .
Doctors had warned that smoking and obesity of the most important risk factors contributing to the emergence of diseases of aging, because they speed up the shrinking telomeres and the short length, Vtserg many years of human life.
