"Recent research found that a lifetime of brisk walking can lead to DNA changes equivalent to a 16-year younger biological age by midlife.
But how do you determine whether you’re walking briskly or just taking a normal stroll?"

There are a lot of reasons to detest #Trump but today's is that he's ruined light yellow eye #concealer for the rest of us. #aging #makeup

#Retirement, #grief and loss, health concerns, and cognitive decline can contribute to #depression among older adults.

But does #aging itself naturally lead to depression?

In this article, part of Wise & Well's special report on depression, experts in geriatric psychology share how to tell if you or someone you love is struggling with serious depression…or just getting older, and helpful prevention steps to take.

sure wish i could remember the webcomic with this wittle cat trying to skateboard but it just gets a tummy ache while someone tells the cat it should work on its SEO strategy and build a coming soon page #TipOfMyTongue #Aging

If you’d like this article gifted, please ping me. It’s a good one if you’re approaching older age or you’ll be caring for someone who is.

“The Waltons” was a lovely show but heavily fictionalized; the US isn’t nearly ready for the challenges of our #aging population. (Our extensive and flexible 🥜 peanut gallery, however, will readily shame caregivers with the temerity to ask for help. Don’t let them get to you.)

Good night, Jim-Bob.

My heart’s apparel is not elegant;
I need no jewels or silk or satin thread,
No smart array of finery or dress.

When Time’s own cruel hand has carved my face,
And daubed with grey my crown of ruddy gold,
When I face Death and look into his eyes,
How can I then be other than I am?
