In my early 20s, I got tinnitus even though in the rare occasion I'm around loud noises I wear hearing protection.

In my mid-late 20s, my vision got worse after never needing glasses and my knees starting creaking with occasional pain. I now need some more involved dental work even though I brush and floss regularly.

I've lived a predominantly outdoor, active lifestyle the last several years, so I should be quite well off health-wise, but it still feels like I'm aging faster than I should be. wtf?

My body started falling apart in my 30s. It took a radical diet change to discover I have major issues with gluten. It cleared up so many problems I had. A little while later I discovered I don't process alcohol well and it had a cumulative effect. Once I cut that out things got much better again.

I guess what I'm saying is, consider your diet. I used to make fun of gluten free people. I'm not laughing anymore.

I'm doing all right myself, but I can't say the same for my girlfriend. Headaches, tummyaches, backaches, or whatever random thing it is today, there's always something. She's a few years older than me so I guess I have something to look forward to lol.
