Seniors

Our body is just like a very delicate machine and more we use this machine,

more sensitive it becomes to faults. Similar is the case with old age because

in our old age, we had consumed almost everything of our body and it

needs special care and extreme attention to stay fit and working 100

percent. If you are in your early 40’s then, you should know that you are

entering an age where very small diseases can over run you and you will be

left helpless but there are lots of things which you can always do to improve

your daily life and stay fit even in your old age.

Keep Your Mind Young

Most of the people get old because they think they are old. Your mind frame

has a very deep effect on your overall health. You should never say to

yourself that you have become old and weak because if you trusted this

opinion then, it will make you even weaker and older.

You should keep your spirits up and say to yourself that it is not the time to

lie down on your bed instead you should participate actively in daily

activities. I have seen people who lie down on their bed when they enter in

their 50’s and have their grandkids. This is not the way instead you should

remain active and try to participate in your family matters as it tells you

your importance and you do not stick to that plan of being weaker.

Some Secret Health Tips for Older People

Regular exercise is the key to stay fit for any age group but the types of

exercise keep changing. When you are young and youthful then, you can

afford to do aerobics, weight lifting and other similar exercises but once you

cross your 50 then, your bones and muscles become weaker and you cannot

execute all of the those exercise plans.

You need to know this fact and choose some light and mild exercises for you

like stretching, walking, light jogging and other similar exercises. Walk and

jogging are two of the most essential and most effective exercises which you

can do and these will help you to not only maintain your health but these

will also help you to get rid of certain heart and lungs diseases.

You can also try light kinds of aerobics and other hard stretching exercise

but try them for a particular period and see their effect. If you feel strain or

pain in your muscles and weakness in your whole body then, you should

know that these are not the appropriate exercises for you.

Regular Health Check Ups

As I mentioned above that in older age, your muscles, bones and other vital

organs become weaker and they tend to get diseased and faulty very easily.

So to avoid any unpleasant situation, you should have regular checkups

from your doctor. These checkups will ensure that everything is working

properly inside your body and even if something is going wrong, it will be

diagnosed in early stages and doctors will be able to give you proper

medication to cure it as soon as possible. There is no better person than

your family doctor to do this checkup because he knows your history and he

will know your problems much better than a new doctor.

Overcome Your Bad Habits

As we grow up, we develop certain bad habits like smoking, drinking and

other similar things. These habits may not harm you mush in young age

and you will be able to resist their side effects and bad effects on your

health in that age but when you get into older age then, these habits can be

life threatening for you.

Drinking disturbs your immune system is disturbed at that age and you are

no longer resisting its side effects. It can destroy your digestion system and

can initiate some very harmful liver diseases too. Similarly if you smoke too

much then, it can damage your lungs. In order to make your last few years

easy on yourself, you need to quit these habits and if you cannot quit them

completely then, at least try to limit them.

Senior Safety At Home

In old age, people tend to fell sick a lot more often and it is necessary that

they should be provided with proper support at home. Muscles become

weak and sometime weakness becomes terrible and they cannot even walk

properly.

In this state, they need to have proper support while climbing stairs and

they should also have proper support in their bath rooms so that they do

not slip from slippery tiles of bathroom. Going in an old age home is not a

very good option because that place sucks from many points of view.

There is a very lonely feeling in these places which makes you very

disturbed mentally. In last years of your life, you always need someone

from your family and especially from your kids to help you out and to look

after you. This gives you a very soothing and helping atmosphere if

someone your love is always around to help you in your bad times.
