HEALTHY AGING IS A REALITY AND NOT A DREAM
• Functional capacity like ventilator capacity, muscle strength & cardiovascular output increases in childhood & peaks in early adulthood, eventually followed by a decline resulting in disease & disability in old age.
• Rate of decline however gets accelerated by negative adult life style factors like smoking, alcohol, lack of exercise, improper diet as well as by environmental & external factors; Hence this decline can be slowed down or even reversed at any age through the individual himself or the policy makers.
