Cellular health is affected, broadly speaking, by almost everything that affects your body. Remember, your cells are best thought of as the building blocks that comprise all the tissues that make up your body.

There are skin cells, for instance, and they’re affected by:

Exposure to sunlight – too much sunlight can cause skin mutations and cellular damage

The vitamins and minerals you consume

Your genetic predispositions for certain conditions

In a way, anything that affects your body also affects your cells. But to get more specific, cellular health is broadly affected by these major factors.

Age

Your age also affects your cellular health. Aging in general can be roughly summarized like this:

Each cell in your body has telomeres, which are the regions at the end of your chromosomes that contain repetitive nucleotides. Telomeres protect the ends of your chromosomes from deterioration or prevent them from fusing with other chromosomes.

However, as you get older, your cells divide more and more. The more your cells divide, the more your telomeres shrink over time.

As your telomeres shrink, your chromosomes become more vulnerable to damage from their environment. This causes certain cells to mutate or fail to replicate properly and die.

This is essentially aging: your body can’t repair itself as well as it could before, so it starts to deteriorate. This is also the reason why cancer tends to be more common as you get older.

Thus, cellular health is more important to focus on as you age. Undertaking certain cellular rejuvenation therapies and focusing on maintaining a great diet and exercise routine may support you in maintaining cellular health even as you gather years under your belt.
