Age-Related Health Issues

As people age, their bodies undergo natural changes that can lead to health issues. Common age-related problems include reduced bone density, increasing the risk of fractures; diminished muscle strength and flexibility; and slower immune responses, making infections more likely. Vision and hearing may decline, and memory or thinking skills can be affected. Chronic conditions like arthritis, heart disease, and diabetes may become more common. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle—regular exercise, balanced diet, and medical checkups—can help manage these changes and improve quality of life in later years.
