More people say they have control over their physical health and mobility as they age than over their mental health and appearance, according to new research from the Pew Institute.
“Three-in-ten say people have at least a fair amount of control over the aging process overall, with adults ages 65 and older among the most likely to hold this view (40%),” Pew reports.
You’re on the cutting edge if you’re one of the millions of people exercising regularly in midlife or later to maintain health, independence, and quality of life. And the report is full of interesting information, like:
- 76% want to live to see 80, including 29% who want to live to 100. Average hoped-for expectancy: 91.
- Slightly more than half of those polled take anti-aging supplements like collagen or color their hair; about a quarter have had non-surgical cosmetic treatments, like Botox, to look younger.
- 22% say it is difficult to carry out everyday activities, like walking, climbing stairs, or carrying groceries.
