According to a new study, people who look younger than their age tend to live longer than those who look older than their years. The research also found that perceived age was significantly associated with survival, even after adjustments were made for actual age, sex and the environment in which each pair of twins was raised. The bigger the difference in perceived age, the more likely it was that the older-looking twin died first.

The research also said the relation between association between perceived age and physical and mental functioning and common genetic factors influencing both survival and perceived age.

I just want to ask you people, do you also believe that looking younger than one's age means in longer life?

I am not the expert, but it may true that he/she whoever looks younger than what he/she is, gets always compliments for that & hence I suppose may boost the confidence in a sense that might prove to be a beneficial factor.

Well, we cannot deny anything merely on our knowledge. Modern science still doesn't have answer to many questions of human life. Also, the researchers must not be any foolish people. They must be doctors. We cannot completely deny these findings.

I don't agree with it. Looks is the external appearance of human body whereas age is decided by the internal metabolism of human organs. There is no relation between the two. How can one effect the other! These findings can be just a coincidence...
