One of the main aspirations of older people is fully aging, but to achieve this longevity in acceptable physical and mental condition will depend on your lifestyle.
For a plural number of geriatricians, aging is a natural process that much still unknown.
Recent research has been directed to find clear signs, unquestionable, the way it conducts aging.
When making this finding, physicians will be able to predict the amount years may be able to live and under what conditions, and even the time that will produce death. But so far have not found the frames to determine certain mysteries related to longevity, until now jealously guarded by Mother Nature. U.S. says a geriatrician known that we all suffer some degree of irreversible decay, resulting in weakness of some bones, reducing lung capacity and serious failures heart. On the cause of these problems still under investigation.
Instead, it was determined that weight gain and lack of muscle strength are occurring due to the sedentary life of the patient, lack of exercise, which is of paramount importance to achieve a healthy life both physically and mentally, as Juvenal said: "Mens sana in corpore healthy."
After these considerations, we are able to say that longevity, rather than a hereditary issue is a matter of lifestyle.
For this, we say to patients, especially older adults, the best advice they can do to achieve an old age through improved quality of life, moderate exercise and, above all, maintain good nutrition. These are indications that doctors have recommended several times and, let's be clear, many patients are not complying properly. As a result of these omissions, accidents occur that disrupt the lives of people who may well have lived 100 years or more, because medicine has advanced remarkably and is getting positive achievements as you progress this millennium.
Studies carried out by experts indicate that if older adults exercise regularly and eat antioxidant-rich foods, especially those containing vitamins C, E and betacarotenol, can reduce the forces that cause damage, sometimes irreversible in our body.
The geriatricians say that if you could slow the aging process and put a barrier to chronic diseases, human beings enjoy their vigor and independence for much longer.
There is an old theory is still in vogue and that heredity affects a rapidly aging people, but it has no scientific grip as demonstrated in the light of laboratory experiments on high efficiency and modern technology. It is shown that the quality of life is crucial in how humans age.
In conclusion, we bring the lapidary words a geriatrician highly respected worldwide, "There is no way to prevent aging. What we can do is make it slower."
