While it is touted that age is nothing but a number, it is important for senior adults to get a regular checkup to prevent or manage any health conditions that are associated with aging. These include conditions such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, osteoporosis, arthritis, and cancer.

Hormonal changes can also bring about concerns on weight management, while the natural aging process may also affect memory, eyesight, and hearing. The good news is that with good nutrition, healthy habits, immunization, and an active lifestyle, one can prevent health issues and age more gracefully.   Through regular checkups, a doctor can advise seniors on how to take good care of their health and help them stay active in the years to come.
