Researchers note in an article in the journal "BMC Geriatrics" suggests that frailty not only affects old people. Instead, you should pay attention starting at 40 years of age on the physical and mental health, to reduce frailty in the further course of life, or even to avoid.

45 per cent of 40 – to 49-Year-olds begin to show signs of frailty – a chronically reduced capacity and lower body strength, which are normally attributed to the age. Prof. Sue Gordon of the Australian Flinders University found: "You don’t have to be in the 70s or 80s, on the path to a infirmity to take. The age plays no role."

The good news is that Younger people around the age of 40 have the opportunity to counteract this by rethinking your health, habits and routines, and find ways to improve your life-style. The researchers advise to pay attention at the latest starting from the fourth decade of life to the first signs of frailty, to the basin where poor core stability, little strength in the legs, poor balance, lack of feeling in the feet, under weight, include soil problems, and a poor diet. In advanced frailty, poor mental performance are added often, living Alone, psychological problems, poor lung function and poor sleep.
