When most people hear "old age," they think of wrinkles, fatigue, thinning hair, and a long list of health problems. However, growing older does not make your health any less important. According to board certified dermatologist Dr. Beata Rydzik, virtually anyone can stay healthy over the age of 50 if they practice the right habits.

"If you maintain your health well enough, you can still be active and healthy at 90," Dr. Rydzik explains. "Start with a good diet—cut out excessive snacking and keep to healthy portion sizes. Your digestive system slows as you age, so eat foods rich in fiber like fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, which will provide you with energy. Drinking lots of fluids is also important for your health and energy levels, so be sure to stay hydrated."

"Avoiding certain activities, like smoking and excessive sun exposure, can help keep your skin healthier as well," Dr. Rydzik commented. "If you cut out bad habits, stay hydrated, and pay close attention to your skin, you can reduce or prevent damage like wrinkles, blemishes, or sagging. Healthy skin will not only make you look younger, but feel younger as well. Feeling rejuvenated will motivate you to live an active lifestyle, improving both your health and self-esteem."

Dr. Rydzik brought up exercise next. "A consistent amount of physical activity is another fantastic way to keep the body young. Start slow, pick something you enjoy, and stick with it. An effective exercise regimen can help you become even healthier than you were at a younger age."

To conclude, Dr. Rydzik had this to say: "While physical health is very important for staying healthy as you age, mental health also deserves plenty of attention. Socialize, keep healthy relationships, and participate in things that interest you. If you do experience any kind of medical problems, be sure to contact a board certified professional. Consult with your doctor before making any major physical lifestyle changes like an exercise routine or new diet, and always be sure to stay positive."
