Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI)
Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is a condition characterized by a decline in cognitive function that is greater than what might be expected due to normal aging. While MCI itself is not a diagnosis of dementia, it can be a precursor to conditions like Alzheimer's disease.
Frailty
Frailty is a medical condition common among older adults, marked by decreased strength, endurance, and overall resilience. It increases vulnerability to illness, falls, and slower recovery from health challenges. With early detection, proper nutrition, and targeted exercise, frailty can be managed or even reversed.
Inflammaging
Inflammaging is a term used to describe the chronic, low-grade inflammation that occurs as we age. This chronic inflammation can contribute to a variety of age-related diseases, including heart disease, Alzheimer's disease, and cancer. Understanding inflammaging can help us develop strategies to promote healthy aging and reduce the risk of age-related diseases.
Macular Degeneration and Age-Related Vision Loss
Macular degeneration is a progressive eye condition that affects central vision, making tasks like reading and recognizing faces difficult. It’s most common in older adults and can be managed through early detection, nutritional support, and treatment.
