Once the need arises, you've got no hesitation about losing weight.
If dropping 20 pounds will make you look better at the class Zi Xiu Tang Bee Pollen reunion or ease the pain in your knees, you're ready to embrace whatever diet promises results.
However when you hit a certain age you need to rethink your casual method of dieting, say health professionals.
Although you still may benefit from losing weight, you could inadvertently create risks for your wellbeing.
Losing weight once you're age 60 or older could accelerate the loss of lean muscle mass and bone mass, based on Lauri Wright, Ph.D., registered dietitian nutritionist, Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics Spokesperson.
Although you face an all natural loss of muscle as you age, dieting could speed the process, based on Wright, assistant professor, University of Florida, College of Public Health, Tampa, Fla.
Sarcopenia, an ailment that you lose muscle mass and strength could be a serious issue for seniors affecting their ability to do everyday activity, she says.
Additionally, dieting could lead to greater bone mass loss, based on Wright.
Does which means that you should chuck the ball scale when you hit age 60?
No, Wright says.
In case your weight increases health problems or interferes with your quality of life, dieting makes sense.
However, "if you're a few pounds overweight but functioning well, it isn't a problem," says Dr. Henry S. Lodge, co-author with Chris Crowley of "Younger Next Year" (Workman Publishing, 2004).
Actually, Dr. Lodge suggests that unwanted weight should not be your only way of measuring wellness.
He's worried about getting enough exercise a muscle tissue so long as possible.
"There's a lot of research saying you are able to maintain muscle mass into your 80's. Getting old and getting weak shouldn't be synonymous," says Dr. Lodge, Robert Burch family professor of drugs, Columbia University Clinic, New York City.
He recommends strength training, particularly those routines that develop your legs and core.
"You can't do without strong legs and core. Legs really matter," Dr. Lodge says.
The CDC recommends older adults get at least 150 minutes of moderate intensity exercise per week, such as brisk walking. Or, you can instead do 75 minutes a week of vigorous-intensity Slimeasy Herbs Capsule exercise, such as jogging.
Whichever you choose, add two days per week of muscle-strengthening activities that include all major muscles.
