Summary
  • It is a fact that everyone gets older. However,
    with this fact there is a list of myths about
    aging that needs to be debunk.
  • No matter how much you try, you cannot keep
    yourself from aging. Even if you try to keep
    yourself young, using Botox, cosmetic surgery, or
    anything else, growing older is simply not going
    to go away.
  • There's nothing you can do about it, everyone
    ages. But this doesnt mean you need to fear of
    aging!
  • It is common for people to be afraid of getting
    older. Some of the reasons for this are due to
    unnecessary myths about aging.

Growing older is growing ill
  • It is one of the most common myths that as a
    person get older, they get sicker. Although there
    is a good chance of having to make more visits to
    the doctor, this is usually just due to a weaker
    immune. You will see a lot of changes as you grow
    older, but being old doesn't means that you will
    be sick or feel tired all of the time.
  • To help prevent sickness, it is advised to
  • Eat a healthy and nutritious diet.
  • Take vitamin and nutrient supplements.
  • Follow an exercise routine.
  • Drink more water.
  • Visit your doctor regularly.

With growing age you become senile
  • This is one of the older myths believed by people
    all across the world.
  • Have you heard of stories where an old person
    turns absent-minded?
  • There are many different things that can cause
    mental decline but it does not mean that everyone
    will suffer from it as they age.
  • The real good news is that if mental functioning
    declines, in many cases it can be improved and
    even prevented.

Aging means losing your teeth
  • This is another myth that is dreadful. No, you
    are not going to lose all your teeth.
  • In case someone in your family is losing their
    teeth, it is not just because of the old age.
  • It can be due to gum diseases that people might
    get when they are younger and carry with them to
    old age.
  • For instance, the most common problem is
    gingivitis, i.e. when the gums turn red, swell
    and bleed.
  • If you take a good care of your gums and teeth
    when youre young, you may never have to consider
    false teeth.
