How to extend life: Dr. Moseley talks about how to maintain a good balance can extend life

Professor Dawn Skelton mentioned something in Dr.

The brain is the most complex organ of the human body.

If there is a problem with any of our senses, it will appear in a bad balance

Professor Skelton added that if our brain does not work well to maintain a good balance, then it cannot integrate well with hormones or the cardiovascular system

Poor balance is a sign of the decline in other things, Professor Skelton said

We certainly know that if you can improve your balance so that you don't fall as you did before, Professor Skelton replied that this will have a great impact on hip fractures and the resulting adverse consequences

We also know that many activities that improve balance involve dual tasks, so [they] make the brain work harder

The professor said that there are some suggestions that improving your balance can help cognition and may prevent dementia

do not miss it 

Professor Skelton also said that there is evidence that balance exercises are better than standing up and walking around

It is recommended not to sit for a long time—an example of sedentary behavior—Professor Skelton recommends balancing exercises for every hour of sitting

She said, maybe stand for 30 seconds with one leg, or stand in tandem

Tandem standing means that you put the tip of your heel against the toe of your other foot, as if you were walking a tightrope

Walking backwards is also a good balance challenge, [but] be careful, Professor Skelton added

To help extend life, she recommends balance exercises in daily life

So when you wait for the kettle to boil, stand on one leg, Professor Skelton said

 Finally, with practice, Professor Skelton said you can improve your balance

Your brain will better integrate this information, she explained, but she recommends that people practice near a fixed stand
.

The ideal situation is a good sturdy sink, a sturdy kitchen surface [not a chair], things like that, she explained
.

For those things that don't move, she clarified that people of any age are encouraged to start improving their balance today
