Our website recommended by TVE

On TVE's health program Saber vivir, entitled "How to stay healthy for many years," our website was expressly recommended as an example of a site that can be visited on Google to find information on general health topics.

Causes of aging and solutions

From the age of 50 onwards, we need to take even greater care of our health, as this is a time when many hormonal changes occur, both in men and women. However, while the change is abrupt in women, because estrogen disappears over a period of one year, in men the change is more gradual and takes place over a period of ten years.

In women, estrogen is produced in the ovaries and nourishes the bones, arteries, good cholesterol, and skin quality. After menopause, estrogen is no longer produced in the ovaries and we begin to age, which is why it is important to have checkups to monitor cholesterol, sugar, and other aging factors. During menopause, women tend to accumulate about 5 kg of fat, which is difficult to counteract later on.

Saber vivir answered the four basic questions that everyone asks when talking about aging:

  • Why do I gain weight as I get older?
  • Why does cholesterol rise?
  • Why is calcium lost?
  • What checkups should I get? 

Some of the solutions that were proposed were:

  • eat foods rich in omega-3 daily
  • get checkups starting at age 50
  • fill our pantry with foods such as eggplant, wheat capsules, and melatonin
  • exercise. At this point, exercises such as rowing were recommended to strengthen the back, triceps exercises to combat flabby arms, shoulders, and upper back, and squats to tone the muscles in the legs. In addition, it is obviously important to move around, even in your own home, by dancing, for example, and doing aerobic exercise.

The television program featured Dr. Santiago Palacios, gynecologist and medical director of the Palacios Institute.
