Healthy Ageing
What is Healthy Ageing?
Ageing is something we all go through, but how we age can be different for everyone. Healthy ageing means living an active and happy life while staying physically, mentally, and emotionally healthy as we get older. It’s not just about living longer, but also about quality of life.
Key Strategies for Healthy Ageing
1. Balanced Diet:
- A variety of healthy whole foods like fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains and healthy fats can help prevent chronic diseases and keep your energy levels up.
2. Regular Physical Activity:
- Staying active helps maintain a healthy weight, improves heart health, strengthens muscles and bones and boosts mental well-being¹.
3. Holistic Approach:
- Healthy ageing involves adopting good habits and keeping both your mind and body active. Making healthy choices throughout your life can help you enjoy a full and satisfying life as you grow older.
NOW® Energy and NOW® Weight can play a significant role in Healthy Ageing, in three key ways:
- By improving efficiency of glucose management, helping prevent overweight and associated diseases (like diabetes & prediabetes),
- NOW® Weight is high in antioxidants, important in slowing the ageing process, and effective in reducing inflammation,
- Contributing to the maintenance of healthy cholesterol levels and significantly reducing abdominal fatty deposits – having a direct impact on the prevention of cardiovascular disease.
