Proof The Bible Is True

Frailty is a state of health often experienced by older adults. It is generally characterized by health problems such as loss of muscle mass and strength and constant fatigue. Older people who are frail are vulnerable to sudden changes in their health, which can be triggered by small events such as a change in their environment or medications, or a minor infection.

 

Frail people are also the most likely to sustain injuries due to a fall, develop disabilities, be admitted to a hospital or require long-term care. They tend to have weak muscles and suffer from various conditions, such as arthritis, deafness, poor eyesight and poor memory. Because of the weakness they feel, frail older adults also tend to walk slowly, get exhausted quickly and struggle to do the simplest task, such as climb stairs or stand up on their own.

 

But while frailty threatens the health of the elderly, experts say it can be prevented with the help of specific interventions that can begin early in life. Aside from being physically active, which helps improve strength and reduce weakness, changing your diet to include more foods that are rich in flavonols can help you stay strong and healthy as you age.
