Naturally, as we age our bodies change and become prone to certain
health problems, some of which may be unpleasant alterations in our skin,
eyesight and hearing, teeth and digestion, loss of hair, and/or memory. In
addition, it is common for older people to
develop more serious disorders as arthritis,
osteoporosis,
hardening of
the arteries
(atherosclerosis),
high blood
pressure,
hernias,
thyroid and
kidney
problems,
diabetes,
Parkinson’s
disease and
various
forms of
cancer.
Everyone should be concerned about how
the aging process affects them and their
loved ones, including their friends and
relatives
and even
their
children.
Vulnerability
to the
various
ailments
associated
with aging
is a product
of your
individual
characteristics
like
physical
condition,
genetics,
age, gender,
marital
status, your
occupation,
and the
environment
in which
your body
functions.
This
environment
includes
your diet
and
lifestyle.
In addition,
it includes
elements
upon which
your body is
exposed to –
including
smoking,
excessive
alcohol
consumption,
drug usage,
overexposure
to sunlight
and
pollution,
