(By Misook Lee, LAc) Aging starts with our appearance gradually changing: tiny wrinkles in the face, thinning hair, and decline in muscle mass. Some can have pain issues such as joint problems, muscle damage and all sorts of immune-related diseases. Others have chronic metabolic issues such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and arteriosclerosis. Others suffer from chronic fatigue, lethargy, and depression. Cognitive functions may also decline, and at least some memory loss and slowing of processing speed are very common. Although all these changes are a natural part of aging, we can delay the progress of deterioration, prevent the severity of symptoms, and maintain a healthy condition through the use of therapies that enhance our natural health such as acupuncture and herbal medicine.
