Ageing
Ageing (also spelt aging) is the process of becoming older. This happens continually throughout life. Older age tends to bring with it unwelcome changes such as a greater risk of health problems and typical changes to appearance. As populations are living longer, the challenge is to avoid living longer in ill health, but instead to have longer lives which are happy and healthy.
by Dr Mary Harding, MRCGP
