The Most Common Problems From Aging

Whether it is the lifestyle, environment, or other factors, aging leads to some sort of health problems more often than not.  With new medical advances, people are able to live longer and enjoy better quality of lives, however, that does not mask the many health issues that we are facing.  Here are the top conditions that our aging population are dealing with the most. 

The American diet is notoriously unhealthy, and heart conditions and diabetes are inevitable to come with such lifestyle.  Besides our diet, lack of exercise can also attribute to bad bone health, leading to fractures when falling.  However, aging itself do bring on certain problems such as cataracts, arthritis, or incontinence.  We slow down and our immune systems become weaker, even though problem persist, with enough support and care surrounding the senior, they can still live a quality and fulfilling life.
