Most people generally tend to associate aging with forgetfulness, irritability, weakness and sickness. Research studies indicate, this is far from truth- - - especially if you have been adopting a fairly disciplined lifestyle over the years. It stands to reason that reversing the process of aging cannot materialize overnight; it takes years of awareness to healthful living. Following strategies to protect your heart, your organs and your memory, could significantly improve on the quality of your lives. Adopting a healthy lifestyle is the key. By learning techniques to keep your blood pressure and sugar levels under control, safeguard against memory loss, boost your metabolism, you could increase vigor and reverse the process of aging. Cheers to your good health!

@Gabugs I totally agree. My mom was still dancing in her 70s.

Wow! @rasmasandra I commend your mom for maintaining good health. I'm sure with her genes, you would do the same.

@vandana7 Amazing feat indeed. Kudos to your dad. I see a pattern here that the seniors are continuing to live longer.

I am sure we can improve health but doubt we can reverse aging, otherwise we would all turn into children!

My mother is 84, going strong and has a fantastic mind and very few skin wrinkles. She's a college graduate but decided to study theology again in her local church and graduated in her early 70's. I felt so privileged to return the favor of buying her her books, something she did to all of us siblings.

That is the theory, then, when I look at my 94 years Mom, who is healthy with an excellent memory and I know how and what she eats, I wonder if everything is only in our genes.

@ladyluck Although genes do play a role in longevity, other factors do prevail. It looks like from the stats we just heard from most comments, it is the seniors who have become adept at maintaining good health are living longer.

@LadyDuck Good point here. Living in the country, certainly has its merits. Pollution free environment can certainly make a big difference. Thanks for this helpful insight.

My dear @jillybean1222 Instead of merely envying them, please practice improving your lifestyle. Little changes started early can go a long way.

@Corbin5 How wonderful of you to endorse this view by sharing with us the examples of your parents. I'm sure it will provide us an inspiration to keep working on reversing the NEGATIVE signs of aging. THANK YOU!
