Energy levels dip. Recovery takes longer. Stress seems to hit harder. Add in hormonal changes, and it can feel like staying healthy takes a lot more work than it did when you were in your 20s and 30s.

I believe we have to take steps every single day to bolster our health and that your health care providers should offer advice on how to do so.
