What is a healthy aging?

Aging is a natural part of life, and it's up to us to make the most of it. that means being active and feeling my best. No matter your age, you can feel your best, too! 

Here are seven easy ways you can stay active and healthy

1- Stay Connected

Loneliness is harmful to your health. If you feel lonely -- whether you live alone or with someone, have lots of friends or none -- you are more likely to get dementia or depression. Seniors who report feeling left out and isolated have more trouble with everyday tasks like bathing and climbing stairs. They also die earlier than less-lonely folks do. Researchers found that lonely people have higher levels of stress hormones that cause inflammation, or swelling, linked to arthritis and diabetes. Another study found more antibodies to certain herpes viruses in lonely people, a sign of stress in their immune system. So stay or make friends. Do volunteer work or simply help someone in need. Just connect.

2-Eat healthy foods

Try to get outside in the sunshine for at least 15-20 minutes a day for a vitamin D boost. It can also be found in food such as eggs and oily fish. Alternatively, talk to your doctor about a vitamin D supplement.

5-Sort out your sleep

Many of us have trouble getting – or staying – asleep as we get older. This can leave you feeling tired and grumpy.
Avoid insomnia by cutting down on daytime naps, establishing a bedtime routine and going to bed at the same time each night.
Try a warm drink such as chamomile tea or hot milk before you go to bed

Drinking fluids throughout the day is very important. Sometimes older adults may not drink enough or may not notice thirst. Dehydration can lead to dizziness, fainting and low blood pressure. These may put you at higher risk for falling. Having enough fluid can help with regularity. Fluids also move nutrients through the body and cushion your joints and organs. 

7-Quitting smoking

Is the best thing you can do for your health — and for the health of those around you. There's no denying that quitting is tough. Ex-smokers say it's one of the hardest things they've ever done, and many quit more than once before they were successful. But they did it, and so can you.
