Ageing is the natural, inevitable process by which the body's structure and functions change over time. This complex phenomenon affects all aspects of human biology, including cells, tissues and organ systems. Ageing manifests itself through gradual loss of skin elasticity, reduced muscle mass, impaired skeletal health, and changes in cognitive functions.
The aging process is multifactorial and is influenced by genetics, lifestyle, environment and health habits. While ageing is inevitable, healthy lifestyle choices, such as regular physical activity, balanced nutrition, and good sleep, can help delay certain signs of ageing and promote overall wellbeing. Research in aging also focuses on understanding the underlying mechanisms to develop aging management strategies and improve quality of life for older populations.
