Proper nutrition, along with physical activity, is essential for maintaining health, vitality, and independence in old age. It helps control chronic diseases, prevents cognitive decline and depression, and reduces the risk of falls and dependence.
Regular physical exercise is beneficial for health and can reduce the risk of chronic diseases, improve physical and mental capacity, and delay dependence on care. Activities such as walking, yoga, aerobic exercises, strength exercises, cardio exercises, mobility exercises, and balance exercises are mentioned. Participation in exercise groups, group walks, or yoga classes is an excellent way to improve physical and mental health, in addition to socializing and fostering a sense of community and mutual support. Physiotherapy and individualized physical rehabilitation are also important for recovering functional independence.
