A 40-year-old woman says that for more than two decades she has stopped aging without using surgeries, aesthetic treatments or medicines to achieve it.


Aging in a natural process that each body develops in a different way. This woman's, for example, claims to be very special because since she was 20 years old, her appearance has remained the same.

Shimmi Munshi is a mother in her 40s who says that for two decades she has not been able to age, and that now she is constantly confused with her son's girlfriend, who is half her age.

“As an adult I have always looked younger. My friends started to get old, but I think I'm going in the opposite direction and I have no idea why, ”the woman said, according to Yahoo!

Munshi explained that when she had her son, at the age of 20, she believed that life would be more complicated and assumed that from then on she would constantly look tired, like other mothers she knew.

However, the opposite happened. "I was a single mom juggling work and motherhood, and anyone would think that stress would kick in, but instead it seemed that age had stopped," she described.  

Shimmi also revealed that, although many women say they envy her, for her her look is sometimes a bit problematic, since you constantly ask her for her ID to verify that she is of legal age. "I feel like the female version of Peter Pan, I am the woman who never grows up," he said.

Likewise, she assured that she has not undergone any cosmetic surgery and that its quality is probably due to genetics or another reason that specialists have not yet found, since her care routine is very basic.

"My beauty routine consists of baby wipes [to remove makeup], and whatever moisturizer is on special offer at the supermarket," said the mother. Although she added that what she does try is to drink a lot of water, consume green tea and not drink alcoholic beverages.

Despite not having any genetic conditions, syndrome or health problems that could alter the way his face looks, Munshi does suffer from a gastric disease that complicates his daily life.

It is gastroparesis, a condition that makes you vomit continuously. In fact, the mother described that there are days when she has done it up to 60 times in just 24 hours. But even that has not changed her "eternal youth."

The University of Rochester Medical Center, in the United States, explains that gastroparesis is a stomach disorder in which this organ takes too long to process food, or is not able to digest it at all. That is why sometimes solid masses are formed that the body expels through vomiting, since they are unable to reach and travel through the intestine.

The main symptoms of this disease are constant vomiting, abdominal pain, a feeling of hardening in the stomach and abdomen, constant nausea, gastroesophageal reflux and weight loss. And experts warned that it must be treated immediately or it could have fatal consequences.
