Simple Steps to Aging Gracefully and Healthily

Health

We usually say that life begins at 40, but the truth is that society doesn’t particularly treat growing older as something positive. Ageism is far too rampant, even on exacting discrimination on ourselves whenever we get older. But we should celebrate growing older, change our mindset, and enjoy life no matter how young or old we are. Changing the Age Mindset We need to stop thinking that aging is something negative. It’s a natural part of life that we’ll all eventually get to. We’ll be wiser, filled with experience, and rich with memories. Instead of treating it like a punishment, we should embrace it. We’ll enjoy the remainder of our lives better than if we treat it like being past 45 is a bad thing. However it’s critical to understand that to truly enjoy old age, you need to take care...

Health

At any given time in the United States, four million people walk around with braces in their teeth. But unlike graded glasses which are more of a necessity than a cosmetic procedure, braces can help people dealing with crooked teeth to make them straighter.

Sports and Health: You Don’t Need Surgery to Keep Your Spine and Back Healthy

Health

Just recently, L.A. Lakers bowed out to Chris Paul’s Phoenix Suns. And as the NBA is one of America’s most-watched sport export to the world, the world seemed stunned that last year’s NBA Champion could be taken out unceremoniously in the first round of the playoffs. Where’s the superstar called LeBron James? What did he do? And how about his 2.08 m 28-year-old sidekick who helped him deliver the championship last year? Where was Anthony Davis? You bet they were there. But one thing has sidelined their skills: injury. Had James not have a high ankle sprain and Davis not have an Achilles injury, the Lakers may have a legitimate run to the top. But that’s wishful thinking now that all is done. Injury indeed is a common refrain in sports. What’s worse is there are injuries that could end a...
