The symptoms of aging start with eating

Aging - the sense of taste deteriorates and the taste becomes heavier
As people age, their sense of taste becomes increasingly dull, and foods that were considered spicy and salty in the past are now acceptable.
In other words, the elderly need a higher concentration of sour, sweet, bitter, spicy and salty to experience the same feeling as young people.
In addition, studies have found that people's sense of taste begins to gradually decline around the age of 60, and the degradation becomes more obvious in those over 70 years old.
The detection threshold of salt and sucrose for people over 60 years old is 1.5 to 2.2 times higher than that of people aged 20 to 40 years old. That is, if the elderly want to taste the same as young people, they need to add salt and sucrose at a concentration of 1.5 to 1.5 times. 2.2 times.
Therefore, at a certain age, if you also find that your or your family’s taste sensitivity is decreasing, you may be really getting older.
Getting older – digestion becomes weaker
Another thing that really aging people often have in common is that their digestion ability is getting weaker and weaker, and they often cannot digest after eating too much. From the previous three meals a day, it gradually became two meals a day.
"Intestinal failure occurs first in old age". As age increases, the metabolic rate slows down, and intestinal function also declines and ages. In January 2022, the top journal "Cell" published a blockbuster study "12 Signs of Aging". Through aging research in the past 10 years, three new signs of aging were added, one of which is intestinal microbial imbalance. . Studies have found that aging-related microbial dysbiosis alters intestinal permeability, leading to systemic inflammation and premature death.
"The age of the gut" also affects the degree of human aging. A young intestine is conducive to the digestion and absorption of nutrients in the intestine, and is also conducive to the discharge of waste. The aging of the intestines will cause the digestion and absorption of food to not proceed normally.

We can do these four things
1.Keep in a good mood
Emotional states and their accompanying physiological responses can affect the function of the immune system. Positive emotional states can enhance the function of the immune system, while negative emotional states can weaken the function of the immune system.
Negative emotions can cause a series of physical changes and may accelerate the occurrence and development of tumors. Bad psychological factors and negative emotions will weaken the body's immune surveillance function, allowing tumor cells to evade recognition and attack by the immune system, increasing the probability of tumor occurrence.

  1. Exercise makes you younger
    ● There are various ways and forms of exercise. You don’t have to stick to the form. You don’t need to run or play basketball, but you can go for a walk and walk to and from get off work. You can also simply do a set of Tai Chi or Baduanjin. These are better ways to exercise and can effectively enhance cardiopulmonary function.
    ● The key to exercise is persistence. Never let your body go to waste.
  2. Pay attention to a healthy diet
    Quality must also be valued. Everyone has some preference for food, so pay attention to control the amount.
    ● If you like salty food and find it tasty, you should try to reduce your salt intake to no more than 5 grams per day.
    ● If you like to eat braised pork, which is a slightly greasy but satisfying and delicious food, then you should try to reduce your fat intake and avoid eating it frequently, which will put a burden on your cardiovascular system.
  3. Sleep is crucial
    On the road to aging, sleep problems may become more and more serious, and more and more people will be unable to sleep. The amount of sleep everyone needs is different.

Where did you found this info?

Elderly eat by far not as much fastfood, candies and so on. All salt and sugar, plus they do not drink soda.
Those who cook themselves have a way better taste than those living from fastfood and spicy food only.

Any idea why not everyone needs the same hours of sleeo, why elderly can do with less or some doze during the day?

I doubt you wrote this yourself.
