The secret to senior health is proper diet and exercise. A nutritional diet and physical activity can help prevent diseases such as cancer, stroke, heart disease, and diabetes. A healthy diet also can help manage diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease. As people get older, it becomes more important to exercise regularly. Having proper health can decreases chances for serious illness or death caused by infection. If a senior catches the flu, for instance, it can have more detrimental effects than in a healthier, younger person. As people age, their immune system response weakens. Seniors need to be proactive in keeping their systems strong.
