The age when the body starts ageing faster

For many years, scientists assumed that ageing happens gradually over time. However, newer studies are revealing a different picture. A recent study (reference below) suggests ageing may not happen steadily throughout life. Instead, there may be a key turning point when the body begins to age faster -around the age of 50, where many biological changes in the body accelerate. This may help explain why many people start noticing more health challenges in their 50s compared to the 30s or early 40s.
