at age 30, cells begin to lose their ability to maintain optimal function and metabolism. Lean muscle mass lost, weight gain due to increase of adipose tissue can occur, fuctional decline of highly metabolic organs can occur (brain, liver, heart, kidneys) and lead to decreased organ function. rate of decline can accelerate. increase in fat can lead to insulin resistance

menopause - due to overall lack of production of estrogen and progesterone and coincides with the end of women’s egg supply. occurs between 45 and 55. accompanied by an increase in body fat and decrease in lean tissue. menopause can increase risk of heart disease and osteoporosis. diet rich in calcium and vitamin D essential to strengthen bones.

decline in melatonin and human growth hormone (HGH) can results in difficulty fallin asleep, abnormal eating patterns, daytime fatigue, anxiety

decline in melatonin and human growth hormone (HGH) can result in difficulty falling asleep, abnormal eating patterns, daytime fatigue, anxiety

decrease in human growth hormone alone (HGH) can result in increased fat mass (especially centrally located), decreased lean muscle mass, diminished muscle strength, decrease physical energy and stamina

risk factors for diabetes associated with aging: decreased actiivty, change in insulin action, medication, genetics, disease, change in Beta cell function

reduction in insulin production results in elevated glucose levels and the risk for type II diabetes

physical activity is important to increase the amount of glucose that gets transported into the tissues and out of the blood. Exercise facilitates this function independent of insulin presence in skeletal muscle only

secretion of digestive juices lessens with age and motility of GI muscles is weakened, both resulting in decreased absorption and bioavailability of nutrients

if the hypothalamus does not secrete enough ADH, the person will not drink. reduction in thirst could lead to dehydration.

if the hypothalamus does not secrete enough ADH, diminishing kidney function may lead to excess fluid excretion during urination, increasing risk for dehydration. If patient needs assistance in day to day life, they may decrease fluid intake to avoid calling for help
