10個跡象表明你比實際年齡要老大綱
1. You have hair loss
1.掉頭髮
Seeing a little (or a lot) of scalp peeking through your hairline is a well-known sign of aging. If you’re younger and you notice things getting a little sparse on your arms, legs or other places, it can indicate your body is aging faster than you think.
髮際線能看到一點頭皮就是衰老的明顯跡象，如果你年紀還小就發現胳膊、腿或其他部位的體毛減少了，就意味着你的身體比想象得衰老得要快。
2. You can’t lift the 30-pound bag of dog food into your cart
2.不能把30磅的狗糧擡進車裏
Muscle strength is directly correlated to how you age, since you actually lose muscle mass the older you get, making you progressively weaker.
肌肉力量直接關係到你的衰老速度，因爲隨着年齡增長肌肉質量的確會下降，使你越來越虛弱。
3. Bruises take forever to heal
3.擦傷很久纔好
If your skin isn’t recovering well, something is definitely going awry in the internal aging systems.
如果你的皮膚恢復得不好，那一定是你內在的老化系統出問題了。
4. You’ve got more wrinkles than your best friend
4.你的皺紋比最好的朋友多
A telltale sign of aging is wrinkles and sagging skin, and the rate at which you get them can indicate you are aging faster than you should be for your age.
最能說明衰老的跡象就是皺紋和鬆弛的皮膚，皮膚出現這些問題的速度能顯示你衰老得比正常速度要快。
5. You make excuses to not to go out with your friends
5.你找藉口不跟朋友出去
A big sign a patient isn’t aging well is when they no longer enjoy doing the things they always loved to do.
一個病人衰老過快的跡象就是不再喜歡他們一直喜歡做的事了。
6. You can’t open the jar anymore
6.打不開罐子
Studies have shown that poor hand grip strength is linked to age-related decline. It indicates a loss of both muscle and strength. Plus a weak grip may also be an indicator that your brain is aging faster.
研究表明手的握力不夠與衰老有關。握力不夠表明你的肌肉和力量都衰退了，而且握力不好也表明你的大腦衰老過快。
7. Your favorite pants are tight in the waist but loose in the legs
7.你最喜歡的褲子褲腰緊但褲腿鬆
Gaining fat around your midsection is a common sign your body is aging quickly.
上腹部脂肪堆積通常是身體快速衰老的跡象。
8. You’re burning through giant bottles of lotion
8.用光大瓶的乳液
Is your skin chronically dry and flaky? That could be a sign of premature aging.
你的皮膚長期乾燥起皮嗎？那可能是提前衰老的標誌。
9. You sleep like a baby—fitfully, with frequent wakings, and not through the night
9.睡覺像嬰兒——斷斷續續經常醒，不睡整宿覺
Insomnia or problems getting a good night’s sleep can be a sign your body is aging quickly. Often this is due to high levels of cortisol, also known as the stress hormone. Too much cortisol not only ages you faster but can promote weight gain, lower your immune function, and can lead to many chronic diseases.
失眠或晚上睡不好表明身體衰老過快，通常是因爲皮質醇也叫應激激素過高。皮質醇過多不僅會加快衰老，而且會增重、降低免疫功能並導致很多慢性病。
10. Your face looks sunken or gaunt
10.臉看起來凹陷了或憔悴
When you lose bone mass in your face, it gives you that characteristic “elderly” profile with sunken cheeks, thin lips, and prominent temples.
臉上骨量減少就使你產生一些典型的“老年”面部特徵：臉頰凹陷、嘴脣薄、太陽穴突出。
