Medical advances during the past few centuries have helped increase a woman's life expectancy. Improved sanitation and public health as well as diagnostic medicine, antibiotics and immunization have largely conquered infectious diseases and childbirth-related deaths.
Many women over 65 suffer from one or more chronic degenerative diseases-diseases researchers say could be prevented or postponed by changing lifestyles. Heart disease, cancer, stroke, accidents, cirrhosis of the liver, diabetes and complications of osteoporosis are now the primary causes of death among women.
The most important things to do to live a longer, healthier life is to learn about your body so you can recognize changes that may indicate illness and learn to ask intelligent questions to your health care provider. Use the information to help make decisions about your own health care.
The combinations of work, family and lifestyles are endless. More women are working and raising children without a spouse, adding economic stress and emotional burnout. May you decided to pursue your career rather than marry or have children.
Reducing stress has become an absolute necessity because of its terrible physical and mental toll. If you succeed at reducing stress through regular exercise, you are reducing your odds of developing certain debilitating illnesses.
