Almost before you have passed childhood your body is already beginning to age. Initially these changes will be so subtle they will be barely noticeable but they are start of the body slowly aging.

The musculoskeletal system is the first area that most age related diseases and illnesses start.

We should not be shocked at the number of people under 35 who need to wear aids for their vision either contact lenses (the choice of many) and glasses. By the time you get to age 40 there is around a one in five chance you will be wearing glasses or contact lenses. Currently around 90 million people over 40 suffer from presbyopia in the US today. A figure which is increasing year on year.

When hearing becomes impaired, it often seems like those talking are inarticulate or you are missing words here and there.

As the hearing is weakend,you will start to hear speech differently. For instance, the use of K may sound distorted, which affects comprehension and understanding. In other words, a older person may hear the CH in a word, such as Chute Up, and think that someone is telling them to shut-up.

The CH sounds different. It is possible to help people with hearing problems or partial deafness in a number of ways by using hearing aids or other assistive listening devices. In addition it helps to face the person you are talking to and maybe use body language or hand gestures to assist in any explanation or conversation. Also speak clearly and more slowly.
