5 Tips for Healthy, Beautiful Aging

& OVERCOMING STIGMA

MENTAL HEALTH IN MEN: UNDERSTANDING

INTRODUCTION

Mental health is a critical aspect of overall well-being, affecting individuals of all genders. However, mental health has a prevailing stigma, particularly among men. Societal expectations, cultural norms, and traditional gender roles often discourage men from seeking help and openly discussing their mental health struggles. This article aims to shed light on the topic of mental health in men, explore the reasons behind the stigma, and provide strategies for understanding and overcoming it.

UNDERSTANDING THE STIGMA

The stigma surrounding mental health in men stems from a variety of factors. One key factor is societal expectations that men should be strong, stoic, and independent. As a result, expressing vulnerability or seeking help for mental health issues is often seen as a sign of weakness. As a result, many

men internalize their feelings, leading to increased stress and worsening mental health conditions.

OVERCOMING THE STIGMA

Education and Awareness: One of the most effective ways to combat mental health stigma in men is through education and awareness campaigns. By providing accurate information about mental health, its prevalence, and the available treatments, we can dispel misconceptions and promote understanding.

Cultural norms also play a significant role in perpetuating the stigma. In many societies, the concept of masculinity is closely tied to notions of dominance, control, and emotional restraint. This can create barriers for men seeking help, as they fear judgment and ostracization if they display emotions or admit to struggling with mental health.

Another contributing factor is the lack of awareness and education surrounding mental health. Men may not recognize the symptoms of mental health disorders or understand that they are experiencing a genuine condition. This lack of awareness further reinforces the stigma, as men may dismiss their struggles as a temporary phase or a personal failing.

Public campaigns can also highlight stories of men who have sought help and successfully managed their mental health, encouraging others to do the same.

Promoting Open Dialogue: It is crucial to create safe spaces for men to discuss their mental health. Encouraging open dialogue among friends, family, and within communities can help normalize conversations about mental health. Men should feel comfortable sharing their experiences, emotions, and struggles without fear of judgment. The stigma can gradually be dismantled by fostering

an environment of support and understanding.

Challenging Gender Stereotypes: It is essential to challenge traditional gender stereotypes that reinforce mental health stigma. Men should be encouraged to embrace their emotions and understand that seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness. Promoting diverse and positive representations of masculinity can help redefine societal expectations and create a more inclusive and accepting environment.

Mental Health Services Tailored for Men: Mental health services should be tailored to address men's specific needs and concerns. Offering malefriendly environments where men feel comfortable seeking help can make a significant difference. Mental health professionals can also receive training to understand better and support men's mental health challenges.

Leading by Example: Men in positions of influence, such as celebrities, athletes, and community leaders, have a unique opportunity to lead by example and challenge the stigma surrounding mental health. When public figures share their own mental health journeys and advocate for

seeking help, it can inspire others to do the same. Their stories help normalize the idea that mental health issues can affect anyone and that seeking support is a courageous and necessary step.

CONCLUSION

The stigma surrounding mental health in men is a significant barrier to seeking help and support. Understanding the factors contributing to this stigma and working to overcome them is crucial for improving men's mental health outcomes. We can create a more supportive and accepting society by promoting education, open dialogue, challenging stereotypes, and providing tailored mental health services. Breaking down the stigma surrounding mental health in men will allow individuals to seek help when needed, ultimately leading to better overall well-being.

The Role of Exercise in HealthyPromotingAging:

ENHANCING PHYSICAL & MENTAL WELL-BEING

Aging is an inevitable process that brings about changes in our bodies and minds. However, regular physical activity has become a powerful tool in promoting healthy aging by maintaining physical fitness and preserving cognitive function. This article explores the benefits of exercise for individuals as they age, emphasizing its positive impact on physical and mental well-being. Additionally, specific exercise recommendations for different age groups will be provided to help individuals incorporate physical activity into their lives effectively.

The Benefits of Regular Exercise in Healthy Aging:

Physical Fitness and Strength: Regular exercise enhances muscular strength, flexibility, and cardiovascular fitness, which tend to decline with age. Strength training exercises, such as weightlifting or resistance training, help maintain muscle mass and bone density, reducing the risk of falls and fractures. Aerobic exercises, such as brisk walking, swimming, or cycling, improve heart health and endurance, allowing individuals to maintain an active lifestyle.

Disease Prevention:

Regular physical activity has been associated with a reduced risk of several chronic diseases commonly affecting older adults, including heart disease, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and certain types of cancer. Exercise helps control weight, lowers blood pressure, improves blood sugar control, and boosts the immune system, reducing the risk of developing these conditions.

Cognitive Function and Mental Well-being: Exercise profoundly impacts cognitive function and mental well-being. It promotes the release of endorphins, neurotransmitters that enhance mood and reduce stress and anxiety. Regular exercise has been linked to a reduced risk of cognitive decline and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease. It improves memory, attention, and overall cognitive performance. Engaging in physical activity also provides opportunities for social interaction, reducing feelings of loneliness and isolation.

Specific Exercise Recommendations for Different Age Groups:

Young Adults (18-40 years): Young adults should aim for a combination of aerobic exercises and strength training. Examples include jogging, swimming, cycling, dancing, and weightlifting. The American College of Sports Medicine recommends at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity exercise per week and two or more strength training sessions targeting major muscle groups.

Middle-aged Adults (40-65 years): Middle-aged adults should continue with aerobic exercises and strength training, focusing on maintaining fitness and preventing age-related decline. Activities like brisk walking, cycling, aerobics classes, and moderate-intensity strength training are beneficial. The exercise guidelines remain the same as for young adults.

Older Adults (65 years and above): Older adults should prioritize exercises that enhance balance, flexibility, and mobility to reduce the risk of falls and injuries. Activities like yoga, Tai Chi, water aerobics, and low-impact exercises are recommended. The exercise guidelines suggest at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity activity per week, combined with activities that improve strength and balance.

Conclusion:

Regular physical activity plays a vital role in promoting healthy aging by preserving physical fitness, preventing chronic diseases, and enhancing cognitive function. Regardless of age, incorporating exercise into daily routines brings numerous benefits to the body and mind. By following age-specific exercise recommendations, individuals can optimize their health and well-being throughout aging. It is always possible to start reaping the benefits of exercise for a healthier and happier life in the golden years.

Cognitive Health & Aging:

STRATEGIES FOR MAINTAINING FUNCTION AND PREVENTING DECLINE

Maintaining cognitive function becomes increasingly important for overall well-being and quality of life as we age. Cognitive decline, including memory loss and decreased mental agility, is a common concern among older adults. However, research suggests that there are strategies individuals can employ to promote cognitive health and potentially delay or prevent cognitive decline. This article investigates various strategies, including brain-boosting activities, lifestyle modifications, and potential interventions, that can support cognitive function in older adults.

BRAIN-BOOSTING ACTIVITIES

1. Mental Stimulation: Mentally stimulating activities challenge the brain and promote cognitive health. Activities like reading, puzzles, crosswords, playing musical instruments, learning a new language, or engaging in strategic games such as chess or Sudoku can help maintain and enhance cognitive abilities.

2. Lifelong Learning: Continuing education and learning new skills

can positively impact cognitive function. Enrolling in courses or workshops, attending lectures, or pursuing hobbies that require learning and skill development stimulates the brain and helps maintain cognitive abilities.

3. Social Interaction: Maintaining social connections and engaging in social activities has been linked to better cognitive health. Social interaction stimulates the brain, boosts mood, and can provide opportunities for mental challenges. Participating in group activities, joining clubs, volunteering, or spending time with family and friends benefits cognitive well-being.

LIFESTYLE MODIFICATIONS

1. Regular Physical Exercise: Physical exercise benefits the body and supports cognitive function. Aerobic exercises, such as walking, swimming, or dancing, increase blood flow to the brain, promoting the growth of

grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats. Omega-3 fatty acids, found in fatty fish like salmon, have been associated with improved cognitive function. Limiting processed foods, saturated fats, and refined sugars is also recommended.

3. Quality Sleep: Adequate sleep is crucial for cognitive function. During sleep, the brain consolidates memories and rejuvenates itself. Aim for 7-8 hours of quality sleep each night, establish a regular sleep routine, and create a sleep-friendly environment by minimizing noise and electronic distractions.

POTENTIAL INTERVENTIONS

1. Cognitive Training Programs: Computerized cognitive training programs, such as memory exercises and attention tasks, have shown promise in improving cognitive function and preventing decline in older adults. These programs can be accessed online or through specific apps and should be tailored to individual needs and abilities.

new neurons and improving cognitive performance. Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise per week.

2. Healthy Diet: Adopting a balanced and nutritious diet is essential for maintaining cognitive health. Focus on consuming fruits, vegetables, whole

2. Management of Chronic Conditions: Effectively managing chronic conditions, such as diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease, is crucial for preserving cognitive function. Controlling blood sugar levels, maintaining healthy blood pressure, and adopting heart-healthy habits can significantly reduce the risk of cognitive decline.

3. Brain-Healthy Lifestyle: Engaging in activities that promote overall brain health can positively impact cognitive function. These activities include stress reduction techniques (such as meditation or mindfulness), avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption, and maintaining a healthy weight.

CONCLUSION

Maintaining cognitive function and preventing cognitive decline are essential aspects of healthy aging. By incorporating brainboosting activities, making lifestyle modifications, and considering potential interventions, older adults can promote their cognitive health and potentially delay the onset of cognitive decline. It is always possible to start implementing these strategies, as they offer numerous benefits for overall well-being and a fulfilling life as we age.

SOCIAL CONNECTIONS & HEALTHY AGING: EMBRACING

THE POWER OF COMMUNITY

As individuals age, social connections and relationships play a crucial role in promoting healthy aging and overall wellbeing. The significance of social interactions goes beyond mere companionship. Engaging with others and actively participating in communities can profoundly affect physical, mental and emotional health. In this article, we will explore the benefits of social engagement, discuss the importance of community involvement, and provide strategies to combat social isolation among older adults, ultimately fostering a vibrant and fulfilling aging experience.

THE BENEFITS OF SOCIAL ENGAGEMENT

Cognitive Health: Active social participation stimulates the brain and promotes cognitive function. Engaging in conversations, debates, and intellectual pursuits helps maintain mental sharpness, memory, and overall cognitive abilities. Social interactions challenge the mind and provide opportunities for continuous learning and growth.

Emotional Well-being: Social connections provide emotional support, companionship, and a sense of belonging, which are crucial for emotional well-being. Strong social ties can reduce feelings of loneliness, depression, and anxiety. Sharing experiences, laughter, and emotional support with others create a positive and nurturing environment for mental health.

Physical Health: Active engagement in social activities has shown a positive correlation with enhanced physical health outcomes. It can motivate individuals to adopt healthier habits like regular exercise, balanced nutrition, and self-care. Participating in group activities and community events often

involves physical movement, fostering an active lifestyle that benefits overall physical well-being.

THE IMPORTANCE OF COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT

Volunteerism: Engaging in volunteer activities enables people to give back to their communities while experiencing a sense of purpose and fulfillment. Volunteering provides opportunities for social connections, helps combat social isolation, and offers a chance to use skills and expertise to impact society positively.

Intergenerational Programs: Interacting with younger or older generations through intergenerational programs promotes mutual understanding, breaks down age-related stereotypes, and provides opportunities for learning and growth for both older adults and younger individuals. Such programs can include mentoring, tutoring, or participating in community initiatives that unite different age groups.

Active Participation in Community Groups: Joining clubs, organizations, or community groups based on shared interests fosters social connections and a sense of belonging. These groups provide platforms for meeting like-minded individuals, engaging in hobbies, pursuing passions, and participating in activities that promote social interaction and personal fulfillment.

STRATEGIES TO COMBAT SOCIAL ISOLATION

Utilize Technology: Technology can be a valuable tool to bridge distances and connect with others. Most people have access to and the ability to use social media platforms, video calls, or online communities as an easy way to stay in touch with family and friends and engage in virtual social activities. Local community centers may offer technical assistance programs to help older adults navigate ever-changing digital platforms.

Participate in Senior Centers and Community Programs: Senior centers and community programs provide opportunities for social engagement and access to various activities, including exercise classes, educational workshops, arts and crafts, and group outings. These programs create a supportive environment where individuals can interact, learn, and form new connections.

Reach Out and Stay Active: Taking the initiative to maintain and strengthen existing relationships is vital. Reach out to friends, family, or neighbors regularly through phone calls, visits, or attending social events. Additionally, pursuing personal interests and hobbies, individually or as part of a group, can expand social networks and foster new connections.

CONCLUSION

Social connections and community involvement are essential components of healthy aging. By embracing the power of social engagement, older and younger generations can experience numerous benefits that positively impact their physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Combating social isolation through active community participation, volunteerism, and intergenerational interactions leads to a richer and more fulfilling aging experience. Let us prioritize social connections and create an inclusive society that supports and values the contributions of all generations, enabling each other to age gracefully and joyfully throughout each season of life.

Revitalize Your Body, Boost Your Confidence, & Ignite Your Sex Life with These Expert Tips

BY GUEST CONTRIBUTOR: CHRISTIAN PALMER

Men, if you're ready to feel great, have a stellar sex life, look great naked and have unshakable confidence, then this is for you. Just because Father Time continues to tick doesn't mean you have to lose your vigor and youthful appearance. You have the ability to make your future even better than your past through good nutrition, sleep, exercise and sexual health. Read on, and I'll show you how.

You've likely heard that you should eat healthy, but what does that really

mean? If you want to maintain a strong body, bones and good looks, you need to consume enough protein. Protein is what your skin, muscles, hair and nails are made of. When you exercise, you break down your muscle tissue and put stress on your tendons, cartilage and ligaments. It's also necessary to recover from your hard work in the gym, allowing you to get stronger and build muscle. In addition, the protein from your diet, specifically collagen, will keep your cartilage, tendons and ligaments strong, which means you'll maintain healthier joints. It also plays

an important role in hair growth. Besides the animal protein you eat, adding a quality collagen supplement will help optimize the amount of collagen you consume.

Protein is crucial when it comes to your appearance. Our skin is made of 70% - 80% collagen and elastin, which are both proteins necessary to keep your skin firm and youthful. The only way you can replenish these proteins is through your diet. So, how much protein should you consume, and

what sources are good? A good place to be is 0.8 to 1.0 grams of protein per pound of lean body weight. My nutrition clients follow this rule of thumb, and it's a principle I stand by. Great sources of protein are pastureraised organic or grass-fed red meat, organic chicken, pasture-raised or organic whole eggs, S.M.A.S.H fish and wild game meat like elk and bison.

creates the aesthetics of a sexy body. A well-built physique makes you look younger and more desirable. It helps you prevent diseases such as diabetes, combat sarcopenia as you age and it builds your confidence because you'll look better both naked and in your dress clothes.

Resistance training is one of the best methods of anti-aging. Building muscle creates shape to your body

can temporarily lower testosterone production by as much as 40%, directly affecting sexual function, strength, digestion, mood, cognitive function, skin hydration and skin healing. This means you'll likely look, feel and function older than you actually are. Sleep also plays a significant role in preventing diseases such as Alzheimer's and diabetes.

Other foods that you should be eating if you want to optimize your health and support testosterone production are blueberries, arugula and red meat. Blueberries contain powerful antioxidants called anthocyanins, which help prevent common cancers found in middle-aged men. Arugula helps the body produce nitric oxide, which is essential for cardiovascular health, blood flow and healthy erectile function. Red meat gets a second mention because it's a great source of zinc, an essential mineral for testosterone production.

Intense resistance training is one of the keys to creating the body you've always wanted. If you've ever looked in the mirror and thought, "I'd love to have bigger arms and shoulders," or "I'd love to have a bigger chest," or "I want to grow my legs," then resistance training is your answer. Building muscle will do a few things for you. First, it will raise your metabolism since muscle is the most metabolically active tissue in the body. This means you can burn more calories as fat while you exercise and when you are at rest. Muscle

and pushes upward on the skin from underneath, making the skin firmer. Squats, rows, lunges, deadlifts and hip thrusts; the ladies will thank you for that last exercise. Three to five days per week of resistance training is a good frequency for you to gain the benefits.

The most underappreciated magic bullet to longevity and a lean, strong body is sleep, especially for us men. Studies show that getting five hours or less of sleep several nights in a row

Your next question is likely, "how much sleep should I get?" Seven to nine hours of uninterrupted sleep is ideal. From personal experience, research I've read and my clients' success from following this, it's undoubtedly true and very effective. Lastly, your regimen should include sufficient hydration and daily sun exposure. Maintaining proper hydration is crucial for promoting muscle growth, fat burning and digestion, as well as preserving the elasticity and firmness of your skin. Dehydration is a common factor in prematurely aged skin as well as alcohol consumption and smoking. I recommend consuming at least half of your lean body weight, in ounces, of water daily. By combining this with regular exposure to sunlight, you can support your body in synthesizing vitamin D, which is vital for healthy testosterone production and efficient calcium absorption, necessary for maintaining strong bones. Finally, sun exposure helps support a healthy cardiovascular system, positively affecting blood flow. That means stronger erections, lower blood pressure and a healthier you.

It's an extremely exciting time for those of you who want to live healthier, feel more confident and look great. With so much well-supported, promising and new research in the anti-aging industry, people can vastly improve their health and life span and feel more vigorous. This means more time to enjoy doing what you love with the people you love most.

LIVE YOUR BEST LIFE YET!

"CHANGE YOUR MINDSET, CHANGE YOUR LIFE."

BY GUEST CONTRIBUTOR: LINDA STEPHENS

It's so easy to put your health and wellness on the back burner. We say things like, "I really want to lose this weight, I want to get back to the gym or I'm tired of feeling tired and having zero motivation to get moving." It seems like there's always something else to do. Then we're left feeling exhausted while searching for the next series on Netflix.

Your body and brain are deeply connected and in constant contact with each other. The thoughts you think, usually negative for some reason, will keep you from achieving above and beyond. The voices in our heads will hold us back and tell us we don't have what it takes. But, in fact, you DO have what it takes. The human body is capable of so much more than we realize. We just have to believe that we always have more in the tank.

It's very easy to put your health on hold as long as you're healthy. The old adage, you "don't miss something until it's gone," rings true. Why wait for the diagnosis to start taking your health seriously? Isn't it worthy of your attention NOW while you ARE healthy?

Look at your self-care habits now while you're reading this. Ask yourself a few simple questions:

These are all very important questions. Most likely, you've probably answered "no" to more than one. Your body is a precision machine capable of so much. Just as you wouldn't put low-octane gas in your Ferrari, you shouldn't put lowoctane gas (processed food, alcohol, sugar) into your body.

How can you turn your mindset around today? Here are a few simple strategies to implement in order to put your health at the top of the priority list:

1. Set aside 30 minutes 5-6 times weekly to move your body. Take a brisk walk even if the weather isn't ideal. Walking provides a meditative experience and has demonstrated the ability to reduce cortisol levels (stress hormones). Engaging in a post-meal walk aids digestion and contributes to improved sleep quality.

2. Speak self-affirmations upon waking and going to sleep. Consciously adopt an "attitude of gratitude" and vocalize the aspects of your life you are grateful for. This does wonders for your mindset.

• Do I put others' needs before mine or let work consume me?

• Do I set time daily for movement, stretching or strength building?

• Do I fuel my body and brain in a way that leaves me energized or feeling sluggish?

• Do I prioritize my sleep habits so I wake each day feeling ready to take on the day?

3. Put down sugar and alcohol as a means of self-soothing. Both substances harm your health, providing only temporary relief from pain. When the numbness wears off, the stressor is still there. Instead, exercise and meditate, which will work wonders and have lasting benefits for your well-being.

4. You have to "adult," meaning push yourself to do the things you don't want to. This is the only way you can kick out bad habits. It's much harder, but you can't cave and say, "I just don't have the motivation." That's a cop-out. Turn it around and say, "Today, I will do something good for my body and brain."

Here's my point, YOU have to put yourself first. Yes, even before your kids or work. You have to practice self-care and self-love daily. Don't wait for your doctor to tell you something you don't want to hear or write prescriptions for medications you don't need. Your body is fully equipped with all that you need to be strong, energetic, happy and fulfilled. BUT you have to do the work. No one is coming to make you do it.

I'm also excited to announce my Midlife Mastery channel on the Muscle & Fitness+ platform. Midlife Mastery aims to show women that this is the best time in their lives. Women learn lifestyle modifications to help balance the hormonal changes experienced over 40/50 & beyond. This is such an important time in a woman's life as it directly correlates with how they will go through the aging process. Midlife Mastery teaches women how to live long, strong and vibrant. We can't stop the aging process, but we can control how we feel, look and move as we go down the path of life.

TIPS FOR HEALTHY, BEAUTIFUL Aging

WORDS BY: RILEY GEORGE

As we age, it becomes more important to take care of our bodies and minds to maintain good health and beauty. Aging is a natural process that we all go through, but it's important to remember that getting older doesn't have to mean losing our health and beauty. It becomes more important than ever to take care of our bodies and minds to maintain good health and stay youthful in appearance as we get older.

The good news is that we can incorporate many simple and practical tips for healthy, beautiful aging into our daily routines. Below are some of

the best tips for healthy aging, including diet, exercise, skincare and more. With a little effort and commitment, you can age gracefully and maintain your health and beauty for years to come. Follow some of these tips for healthy, beautiful aging that you can easily incorporate into your lifestyle!

Eat a Healthy and Balanced Diet

Eating a healthy and balanced diet is crucial for healthy aging. Make sure to include plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean protein and healthy fats in your diet. These foods are rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants that can help reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease, stroke and cancer. A balanced diet can also help maintain a healthy weight, which is essential for good health.

Stay Hydrated

As we age, our bodies lose some of their ability to conserve water, which can lead to dehydration. Make sure to drink plenty of water throughout the day, and limit your intake of alcohol and caffeine. Staying hydrated can help regulate body temperature, improve digestion and prevent urinary tract infections.

Exercise Regularly

Regular exercise is vital for healthy aging. It can help maintain a healthy weight, reduce the risk of chronic diseases, and promote mental health. Aim for at least 30

minutes of moderate exercise most days of the week. You can choose any physical activity that you enjoy, such as walking, swimming, yoga or strength training. Exercise can also help improve balance and prevent falls, which is essential for older adults.

Protect Your Skin from the Sun

Exposure to the sun can cause wrinkles, age spots, and other skin damage. Make sure to wear sunscreen with a minimum SPF of 30 every day, even on cloudy days. You can also wear protective clothing such as long-sleeved shirts, hats and sunglasses to protect your skin from the harmful effects of the sun. Avoid prolonged exposure to the sun, especially during peak hours.

Get Enough Sleep

Getting enough sleep is essential for overall health and can help reduce the risk of chronic diseases. Aim for 7-8 hours of sleep each night. Poor sleep quality can lead to depression, memory problems and impaired immune function. Try to establish a regular sleep schedule and create a relaxing bedtime routine to help you sleep better.

Practice Stress Reduction Techniques

Chronic stress can lead to a range of health problems, including heart disease and depression. Practice

relaxation techniques such as deep breathing, meditation or yoga to help manage stress. You can also engage in activities you enjoy, such as listening to music, reading a book or spending time with friends and family.

Stay Socially Active

Social isolation can lead to depression and other health problems. Stay connected with friends and family, and participate in social activities that you enjoy. You can join a social group, volunteer in your community or take a class to meet new people.

Challenge Your Brain

Keeping your brain active and engaged can help prevent cognitive decline. Read, do crossword puzzles, learn a new skill or take up a new hobby. Challenging your brain can help improve memory, attention and problem-solving skills.

Get Regular Health Screenings

Regular health screenings can help detect and treat health problems early, before they become more serious. Make sure to see your healthcare provider regularly and follow their recommendations for health screenings such as mammograms, colonoscopies and blood tests.

Take Care of Your Teeth and Gums

Poor oral health can lead to a range of health problems, including heart disease and diabetes. Brush and floss your teeth regularly, and see your dentist for regular checkups. Good oral hygiene can help prevent cavities, gum disease, and tooth loss, which can affect your overall health and well-being.

Healthy aging is possible with a few simple lifestyle changes. As we age, it's important to take care of our bodies and minds to maintain good health and beauty. Incorporating these tips for healthy, beautiful aging into your daily routine can help you stay active, healthy and happy in your golden years. Remember that there is always time to start living a healthier lifestyle; small changes can make a big difference in the long run. These simple lifestyle changes allow you to look and feel your best as you age gracefully.
