Why do some people seem outwardly attractive, while others do not arouse similar interest at all? The researchers put forward an interesting hypothesis that answers this question.. Their concept is this: beauty and sexuality are formed even before a person is born, writes medikforum. en.

The theory of the " “Scientists have concluded that a person’s beauty and sexuality are determined even before birth,” the publication says..

According to scientists from the USA, the main factor that determines the degree of attractiveness of a person's appearance lies in antioxidants and oxidative stress.. In particular, biologists have established a clear correlation in terms of male attractiveness: the lower the level of oxidative stress markers in the body of a man, the more symmetrical his facial features, the more women like him..

Experts defend the version that the unattractiveness of human faces is associated with asymmetry in features, which is subconsciously perceived as a violation and instinctively causes rejection.. This asymmetry, in turn, is associated with cell damage due to oxidation occurring during fetal development..

“One of the possible causes of facial asymmetry is the oxidative stress that the fetus experienced in the uterus,” the scientists said..

Experts note that oxidative stress is expressed in an excess of free radicals and a lack of antioxidants: such an imbalance triggers damage processes in DNA and body tissues..

“In some cases, oxidative stress is caused by mutations. In pregnant women, oxidative stress can be caused by smoking, infectious diseases,” the study authors added..
