Patience And Determination Will Help You Improve Your Health Habits As You Age

By Michael Denby

Like most people, you have probably heard hundreds of well-intentioned adages about getting older. The following tips will help you live well, and stay active even into old age.

Try new things and constantly keep an active mind. The elderly are often looked up to for wisdom, so don’t ever stop educating yourself. You could take a course at a local community college or just read lots of books on what really interests you. What’s important is that you are always alert and thinking.

Take special care to get the proper amount of sleep for the age bracket you are in. Individuals who get between seven and nine full hours of sleep nightly often feel more relaxed as a result of balanced hormone levels. Without adequate sleep, you may become irritable and pessimistic.

With age, a lot of people are simply not able to live on their own anymore. We can reach a point as we age when caring for ourselves is no longer possible. Research local nursing homes, assisted living facilities and retirement communities to find the right place for you. While this can sometimes be less than an ideal situation, it is sometimes the best option. There are professionals who work at the facility who are licensed and able to give you any assistance that you may need.

As you grow older, your home turns into a place of safety and sanctuary. Personalize your living spaces and make them as comfortable as possible. Home will be a place where you will feel more at ease.

Do some housecleaning with your social contacts. It has been proven that smiling and laughing have the ability to decrease wrinkle formation, allowing you to look young longer. In order to have something to laugh about, you need to hang around people whose company you enjoy, not those who make you frown.

Skin Damage

If you have to be outside for a period of time, take precautions and do your best to avoid extreme sunlight or extreme cold. Skin damage can be caused by intense heat and cold. Cumulative skin damage will not only speed the getting older process, but it can also be a catalyst for skin cancer.

Having too much sugar in our diet is a large factor in our longevity. Sugar decreases an individual’s lifespan, and it causes aging to speed up. Refined sugar should be avoided as much as possible, including foods that contain high fructose corn syrup, basically just another unhealthy sugar. Research has shown that sugar significantly shortens the lifespan of all animals.

Make sure that the knowledge you have gained here is put to good use and shared with others. If you will continue to learn and do what you can to stay young, you’ll continue to have a great quality of life.
