A member asked:
Is it true that if you start puberty 3 years late, you will end looking 3 years younger in the long run?

Hmmmm: Interesting idea/myth. Mostly all these factors are life style and genetics dependent. Exercise, eat properly, sleep well, avoid tobacco, nicotine and drugs and you'll increase your chances of attaining these goals.
