It was not till later on after spending a couple of months in Sharm El Sheikh that the reality downed upon me after a number of other cases that I've seen one after the other pointing to such a discovery.
But perhaps the absence of pollution in Sharm El Sheikh, the excellent weather, the scenery and everything in the environment there is behind this 'anti-aging' phenomenon.
Anyway, regardless of the reasons behind this phenomenon I noticed in Sharm, the thing is it does work and the hundreds of people living and working in Sharm are live examples present out there to prove it.

Egyptian police made a series of arrests yesterday as they stepped up the hunt for the network behind three deadly bombings, but officials admitted they had no clear leads over who was behind the country’s worst terrorist attack, and many of the suspects were later released.
