Stay Young with Socialization

Chat, traveling, visiting to the home of relatives and friends are a variety of social activities that we usually do day-to-day. But for the oldies these activities is one of the important things that is done to maintain physical and mental health they are.

In fact, new research led by Dr. Aron Buchman from Rush University Medical Center in Chicago said that the oldies who do a little social activity will tend to experience more rapid decline in motoric function.

Research conducted during the 5 years of 906 Oldies with an average age of 80 showing that the oldies who have high social activity also has better motoric ability. They were tested by performing a series of physical tasks such as walking with straight, stand with one foot tiptoe, twirl a circle without a drop, and install the nails in the board.

Bunchman said that people in the age of 60, 70, and 80 years of walking more slowly than when they are aged 25 years. Their research shows the existence of this close relationship between social activities and motoric function, and a new insight for us on matters relating to the influence of aging and how to overcome this.
