What care does your body need?"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>The age of 60 arrives and with it a new stage, where we prepare to slow down at work or even leave professional life behind. With retirement, we have more time to spend on ourselves. So it could be the ideal time to start taking more care of your body and your health.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So how about taking advantage of this new phase in your life to introduce healthy habits and activities that bring more pleasure to your day? We've put together a list of 5 essential tips for improving your health after 60.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-atividade-fisica\"><strong>1.&nbsp;<\/strong>Physical Activity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Keeping your body active and pain-free is essential at this stage of life. We therefore recommend regular physical activity. Swimming, Pilates, yoga and aqua aerobics are just a few of the training options that will improve your health and your willingness to carry out everyday tasks.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But remember that before you start any exercise, it's important to consult a doctor. After an assessment, he or she will be able to recommend the exercises best suited to your needs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-vida-social-ativa\"><strong>2. Active social life<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In old age, cases of depression and cognitive problems increase, as many elderly people are less inclined to leave the house and tend to isolate themselves. That's why it's very important to have an active social life. Make plans to go out and interact with other people on a regular basis. For example, consider joining a sports club or taking a course that motivates you. Interacting with people helps to manage emotions, stress and maintain good habits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-vida-saudavel\"><strong>3. Healthy living<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It's never too late to change your eating habits and start valuing a healthier lifestyle. Eating more fruit and vegetables, exercising, getting enough sleep, not smoking and controlling your weight are just a few of the things you can do.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hopkinsmedicine.org\/health\/wellness-and-prevention\/4-top-ways-to-live-longer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">care that can improve your health and longevity.<\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Taking supplements rich in antioxidants, which bring numerous health benefits, especially after the age of 60, is more than recommended. They act as an anti-inflammatory, preserve skin health, reduce fatigue, improve brain and cognitive health, protect the body against oxidative stress, promote joint health, among many other advantages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-cuide-do-seu-cerebro\"><strong>4. Take care of your brain<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Contrary to what many people think, our brains remain agile after 60, but it's important to look for ways to stimulate your mind, whether through games, hobbies or studies. Learn to play a musical instrument, enrol in a course, volunteer in your community, learn a new language, keep doing crossword puzzles - any activity is important to keep you active.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-seja-positivo\"><strong>5. Be positive<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In order for the body to learn to cope with stress, it's important to learn to think positively. So if you feel depressed or nervous about getting older, spend some time thinking about the positive aspects of this phase of life, such as having more time for your own spiritual growth.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The age of 60 arrives and with it a new stage, where we prepare to slow down at work or even leave professional life behind.
