Human beings exhibit a major characteristic which is growth. From infancy, childhood, adulthood and aging is a process every human beings must undertake. For some people, it is usually exciting to be an aged because of relief of duties. While other see it as a suffering period. The question remains is this fallacy true? Well, let's find it out together.

The Medical Process Behind Aging And From Which Age It Actually Start

The medical process behind aging is usually weakened bones and muscles. As a human being advance in age, some parts of the body begins to wear out causing to weakening to that part. It is usually in the ankles of the feet's, arm and the muscles of the face. Aging differs for different people. It is due to the genetic makeup of that individuals. Most people begin aging from their early 40s while other see it later in their lifetime.

Am I Afraid of Becoming Older

Normally, I keep a neutral position in the matter of aging. Why will I be afraid of aging when he or she knows that it's part of the growth process. If you weren't afraid of childhood to adulthood, then one shouldn't be afraid of adulthood to aging. This fear may be due to the problems associated with aging like weak body system, less active service, etc. I think a neutral position should be kept in this matter.

Nutritional Items To Prevent Aging

To prevent aging, here are some nutritional items we should use:

  • High Intake of Vegetables: Veggies are very useful when it comes to preventing early aging. Green fleshy vegetables are perfect option for this job.

Exercises That Can Make One Look Younger Even in Old Age

Here are the suggested exercise one can do to stay younger:

  • Weight lifting: This is an essential exercise for the aged. The purpose is to trim out saggy skin and enhance a better body structure.
  • Jogging: This is also a great exercise for the older people. Having a 20-30 minutes of jogging will improve flexible and strong bones. The problems of weak ankles will be solved with this exercise.
  • Swimming: Embarking on this aerobic exercise will help improve the breathing test of the aged. Also, they can have a pool party to spice up the swimming.

Conclusively, being an aged person is normal when you clock that particular age. But the important thing is to check on your diet and start performing exercise in your adulthood so that any problem in aging years will be eliminated.

This just reminded me of the beauty of skincare product used by most old women. This has really helped majority control wrinkles which makes them look younger but old in age. Your points are on track and it interests me to go through them over and over again. Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to reading more of your posts.

Yeah, this is an interesting point. Skincare products has the capacity to makes the aged look younger in term of body texture. This reminds of my neighbor's grandmother who uses this skincare products. I was shocked to hear that she was 89 years old when her body texture depicts that of late 40s. Thanks for adding value to my post.

To answer that question of yours that you've asked at the beginning, is his fallacy true?

Yes, and no.
We are all different, and we will all embrace life and grow older differently. Some might look forward to it, and others might not. One thing I am dead sure about is that deep down, all of us cannot help but wonder what aging will bring for us. The unknown is a fear factor for many.

What I can tell you is that aging is not for sissy's.

Best of luck for the contest!
PS: Thank you; I accepted your invitation and dropped an entry.

Your answer to my previous question is just amazing and straightforward. At some point, most people embrace growth as they know that aging comes with it. While other are living in the fear of the unknown which is basically what the future holds. The wonder of aging is great that every living things go through the process. Thanks for this valuable comment. I really appreciate

¡Saludos amigo!😊

Me encanta esa posición neutral ante el envejecimiento porque, de esa manera no te agobias por envejecer o, para prevenir este efecto y, analizando la situación, pienso que esa debe ser la postura ya que, enfocarnos tanto en ello también envejece.

Te deseo mucho éxito en la dinámica, un fuerte abrazo💚
