1.皮肤干燥

随着人们年龄的增长,皮肤变得越来越稀。它缺乏像以前一样保持水分的能力,因此皮肤变得干燥脆弱。脆弱的皮肤很容易破裂,因此老年人更容易割伤和瘀伤。通过喝大量的水并每天保湿,为皮肤补充水分。

2.不同的汗味

您知道老人或老人倾向于闻到“老人”的味道吗?这是因为随着年龄的增长,荷尔蒙和汗腺的变化会改变汗液的成分。如果您发现闻味方式有所变化,可以通过以下几种方法来减少体味: 

  • 穿棉制衣服,以在新加坡炎热潮湿的天气中保持凉爽! 
  • 应用止汗药 
  • 避免食用会散发气味的食物,例如大蒜和洋葱。

3.味觉减弱

Have you started to notice how your wife’s cooking start to taste bland? Don’t blame it on her cooking, it might be something to do with your sense of smell and your taste bud too. As the body ages, the signal from the nose to the brain declines, making it harder for your brain to decipher the taste.

If you’re on medications, it can also affect the way your food taste. So instead of sprinkling salt on your dishes the next time, try using different seasonings instead to spice up the dish. Too much sodium leads to health complications such as high blood pressure!

4。肌肉跟上

您是否注意到自己的反应或行动比您希望的慢?这不是您变得越来越虚弱的问题,而是大脑和肌肉的信号有关。尝试新的运动或填字游戏或新课程等智力游戏,训练您的大脑细胞并保持精神活跃。学习永无止境!

5.上厕所的次数增加

随着年龄的增长,所有肌肉都会衰弱,膀胱的肌肉也会衰弱。您可能会发现自己全天甚至在晚上都要去洗手间,这会严重影响您的睡眠质量。肾脏在晚上处理更多的尿液,因此也可以解释为什么您晚上经常去厕所。您可以尝试做的是减少饮水量而又没有脱水的风险(请咨询医生)或每2小时至4小时小便一次,而不是每次您都感到有点敦促而上厕所。
