It is the greatest inevitability of life - aging. Have you ever wondered what happens within your body, that leads to its gradual decline in function and ultimately #aging? The longer we live, the more likely we are to develop age-related diseases; including cancer. In recent years, #science has taken big steps in understanding the biology of aging. Scientists have discovered nine biological hallmarks that contribute to the aging process. Here's how it works. More videos coming soon.
