Everyone has those days. You know, the ones where you’re a little tired, moving slowly, and feeling weak. Some may call it feeling “old.” But if you’re feeling that regularly and are incapable of performing daily tasks, it’s probably not a sign of healthy aging.
It’s true that change comes with age. You’ve put more miles on your body and it might not be up to the tasks it used to be. Your strength has likely dropped, and hormones have had a way with you in one way or another. But frailty is extreme, and new research indicates it is not a normal part of aging.
