INTERNATIONAL DAY OF OLDER PERSONS-October 1

We are all growing older so this day is for ALL of us! Persons are living longer, but are they living well?

So to live well, we must encourage and enable our older persons to move more so they can be more functional and independent for as long as is possible!

Even though our bodies are changing, it does not mean that we have to be weak, frail or dependent on others!

Movement does not have to be scary! You can dance, walk, swim, join an aerobics class! Just get moving!!!

So here’s what we need to do:
✅ exercise at least 150 minutes a week at moderate intensity or 75 minutes of vigorous intensity
✅ see a physiotherapist to guide you on so that you perform the right exercises for you that will be safe and effective
✅ ensure your exercise program is a blend of strength, flexibility, endurance and balance work
✅ check your doctor to give you clearance to begin an exercise program

Add life to your years by MOVING MORE!

On Thursday 1st October, 2026, the world is celebrating the INTERNATIONAL DAY OF OLDER PERSONS!

I am excited to be a guest on Diabetes and You, on .5 with President of the Dr. Andrew Dhanoo. We will be taking a closer look at how we can ensure that we are not only getting older, but that our additional years are healthy, productive and equitable.

So tune in on Thursday 1st October, 2026 at 12 noon to 1 pm as we keep our older persons at the centre of it all!
