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?

Started around 32-33 for me. Have learned that staying healthy is not a given- it takes a lot of continuous hard work. E.g., thinking hard about diet, completely reevaluating bad habits like drinking, and (most importantly?) getting tons of near-daily exercise. Make this stuff priority no.1 in your life and it will pay off massively
