Aging sometimes causes degenerative failure of the organs of balance, or of the nerve signals in the brain, and can also make leg muscles weaker. Problems with the inner ear can cause the muscles to "overcorrect" and cause a swaying problem. Problems with the leg muscles can mean that they are tensing to compensate for lack of normal muscle tone, which ordinarily makes these constant small corrections imperceptible.
What else can I help you with?
Are short people better than tall people?
Yes, Here is why:Physical advantages of shorter heightShorter people of the same proportions as taller people have many physical advantages based on the laws of physics, and these advantages are supported by many researchers. Shorter people have faster reaction times, greater ability to accelerate body movements, stronger muscles in proportion to body weight, greater endurance, and the ability to rotate the body faster. They are also less likely to break bones in falling. As a consequence of these physical attributes, shorter people can excel as gymnasts, divers, skiers, martial artists, rock climbers, figure skaters, rodeo riders, soccer players and long distance runners. Within their weight classes they are excellent wrestlers, boxers, and weight lifters.Shorter people are also less likely to require surgery for herniated spinal disks. In addition, shorter people are less likely to break a hip from falling. Another advantage of smaller people is that they are less likely to die in auto crashes. One study found that people weighing less than 132 pounds had the lowest risk of dying or suffering serious injuries compared to bigger people. Although height data weren't provided, it is known that height and weight tend to be correlated. Thus, lighter weight people are more likely to be shorter than heavier people. No adjustments for air bag deployment were made, although other studies have found them to negatively affect short people.
Explain the concept of relative age?
Age is basically the amount of years you've been alive since you were born. If you die when your lets say 20, you will never turn 21 because your no longer alive. However some people will still count age even after death, but its more common that age is years alive.
What causes anxiety in people of old age?
Answer old and scaredThe older you get, the more there is to worry about and past 65 or so the less you can do about it. Can I pay my bills, will I get sick, who will take care of me, when am I going to die? These are just a few and it varies person to person. Most people get scared the older they get. Generally, the older, the more scared. Some fears are justified and some are not. Every case is different. AnswerWell I'm 65 (don't feel it) but from talking to people my own age and some older there are some of those factors the above poster expressed, but for most of us getting older (the years seem to slip by faster than ever) it isn't so much the above and death isn't this mysterious terrible thing because you've been to so many funerals it becomes part of your life. It isn't only the older generation where you go to funerals; I've been to 3 funerals where the person has been 25 up 40 years old. Another fear is losing control of your life such as someone taking over your responsibilities. Contrary to popular belief many elderly prefer to be as independent as possible for as long as they can and I know several who are in their 90s that are still independent. None of us want to end up in an Old Age Home and would prefer to die at home around familiar surroundings, our family and pets. Getting older means you have to rely on a good friend, family member to get you around to shop, see doctors because the elderly can fall easily (especially in winter or wet conditions) and breaks hips, etc., very easily. For my friends and myself it's a fear of not retaining our independence and having to rely on others (takes the dignity away.) As long as I can stand I plan on being in my home until I drop, and if some well meaning person tries to get me out of my house and into a nursing home I'll be at the front door sitting on a chair with my shotgun loaded with rock salt!AnswerOn top of all of the above, many older people's seratonin levels drop markedly with age. This occurs naturally, but may be made worse by reduction in exercise, less time spent outdoors, and even a reduced quality of diet. All of this can be treated with SSRI medications and some research shows that a diet high in healthy carbohydrates can also increase the brain's production of seratonin. Declining hormone levels, DHEA, HGH, Testosterone, seratonin, etc are liked with decreased ability to manage stess and anxiety as we age. A diet, exercise and supplement program to maximize DHEA, testosterone and other youth homones will help.Medications can do it. Some elderly can be taking 12 different pills and the mixing of the medications can cause fear, anxiety and depression. Memory loss can cause a lot of fear. A hyperthyroid or other hormonal imbalance can do it too. Neurological disorders can cause anxiety too. Older people often don't sleep well and live in a lot of pain. This can contribute to anxiety.
