Being active can have positive health benefits
By Jim Dueck
We have been told for years that exercise,
maintaining a healthy weight and a healthy diet are good for us. When it comes to senior living, staying active is a good way to maintain good health and independence. A study conducted by the Hebrew Univer- sity Medical Center, reveals that “seniors who do any amount
of exercise appear to live longer and have a lower risk of disability.” For many of us, it is not too late. e study continues that even if you have never led an active lifestyle before, the bene ts of exercise were experienced by those who began exer- cising between ages 70 and 85.
Living in a retire- ment community where daily activities, trips and socials are planned for you, can help you get more ac- tive and stay active to help you live your best life during your senior years.
I recently asked a
friend of mine, who had recently retired, what the most surpris- ing thing he learned once he retired? He said, without hesita- tion, “I have to nd something to do ev- eryday or I will sit around the house, gain weight and become unhealthy.”
at is just one of the many reasons to move to a retirement com- munity like Palm Vil- lage. Activities, trips and a variety of social events provide seniors with age appropriate and fun things to do everyday to promote staying active and healthy. It is not too late to get active.
