Not always, but it is often easier to get sick when you are old, because your body wears out a little bit. Things that you could do when you were younger you can't do anymore, and you find out that some of those things were ruining your body. We don't usually think about things when we're young, like protecting the enamel on our teeth or not being hard on our knees, or not wearing down the lining of our esophagus with spicy food... but then when we get a little older, we see how lots of things we used to do were probably bad ideas.
