What Happens to Our Heart as We Age?

As we age the blood vessels lose their elasticity and the fatty deposition on the artery walls makes the arteries smaller or rather narrow the space for the blood flowing through it. All these factors make the heart work harder than usual to pump the blood to other parts of the body. The result is hypertension, cardiac arrest, arteriosclerosis and other serious disorders.

The process of aging is unavoidable, however the effects of which vary from person to person and so does its severity. Why we grow old is an enigma, but an universal truth which cannot be challenged, and there is no magic capsule or tablet invented yet to stop this process of 'aging'.

Although aging comes in with its own discomforts like aches, pains, sags and forgetfulness; regular exercise, practicing relaxation techniques, keeping stress under control and taking good care of your body and brain can ensure more active and pain free old age.
