There are many people who like to say that 'age is but a number'. These are the same people who seek ways to stay younger as they grow older. And we don't mean that they do it with a bunch of cosmetics in the market but instead, they actually involve themselves into doing things that actually make them feel younger. It could be a sport or even an activity of some sort. These people are the ones in the right! Why? Read on...

Researchers have revealed that feeling youthful can actually help people stay young. They showed that the ageing of the brain slows down considerably depending on how people feel about themselves. They have more grey matter in their brains leading to better decision making, self-control and hearing. Not just that, they also have better memory, feel healthier and have lower chances of being depressed.

People may feel old if they start to lose grey matter and this makes everyday tasks more difficult.
