Changes that happen with age Posted or Updated on 12 Apr 2022

As you get older your body changes and some of the changes you experience may not be what you’d expect. For example, did you know that by age 60, most people have lost around half of their tastebuds?

There are some health conditions that become more common as you age. There are physiological reasons for these changes, but there are also some steps you can take to minimise their effects. Taking some easy preventative measures can help you to stay healthy as you grow older.
