Illness and rapid ageing are the result of a breakdown of our body systems. Anything that prevents the proper functioning of cells and tissues will lead to a lack of proper functions of the body. That is when we are said to be “sick” or in “poor health”. Similarly, as we advance in age, our bodies go through a continuous process of change. Our body cells are constantly degenerating and being continuously replaced by new ones during the cell division process. An increase in cell degeneration throughout our body causes poor health and ageing. Furthermore, factors such as stress, disease and premature ageing results in further decrease of cells.
