Start today taking care of your posture, muscles, bones and

It is all about YOUR NUTRITION that goes into your body
YOUR body changes in posture and gait-your walking pattern are
common with aging. Also, changes in the skin and hair are
common.
YOUR skeleton provides support and structure to the body. YOU
need to know what to do to take care of this support system.
muscles provide the force and strength to move the body.
Coordination is directed by the brain but is affected by changes
in the muscles and joints. Changes in the muscles, joints, and
bones affect the posture and walk, and lead to weakness and
slowed movement.
YOU will loose bone mass and or density as YOU age, especially
women after menopause. YOUR bones lose calcium and other
minerals.
Even YOUR foot arches may become less pronounced,
contributing to a slight loss of height.
The long bones of YOUR arms and legs are more brittle because
of mineral loss, but they do not change length.
The joints become stiffer and less flexible. Fluid in the joints may
decrease. The cartilage may begin to rub together and wear
away. Minerals may deposit in and around some joint such as
calcification.
Hip and knew joints may begin to lose cartilage and the fingers
and bones may thicken.
Lean body mass decreases. This decrease is partly cased by a
loss of muscle tissue and atrophy sets in.
The speed and amount of muscle changes seem to be caused by
genes. Muscle changes often begins in the 20 s in men and in
the 40 s in women.
Muscles fibers shrink, muscle tissue is replaced more slowly.
Lost muscle tissue may be replaced with a tough fibrous tissue.
Most noticeable in the hands, which may look thin and bony.
