Living a healthy lifestyle is one of the best things you can do to stay healthier as you age.

The Cleveland Clinic suggests how to promote healthy aging:

  • Don't smoke, and stick to a limit of one alcoholic drink per 24 hours.
  • Get regular exercise, including aerobic, balance and strength-training activities.
  • Maintain a healthy body weight.
  • See your doctor regularly.
  • If possible, avoid medications that may make you feel confused.
