AGE IS BUT A NUMBER
Many of us believe gaining a few extra pounds is an inevitable part of ageing. But research shows adults over 60 can lose the equivalent amount of weight as younger people using only lifestyle changes, such as focusing on a healthy diet and increasing exercise6. So if your years are advancing, don’t let that deter you from the benefits of healthy lifestyle change. Sustainable weight loss for those who are overweight or obese is linked with improvements in more than 50 co-morbidities, including diabetes, heart disease, cancer and osteoarthritis.
