Ageing simply refers to growing older.”She added: “There are many influences that directly impact healthy ageing and four key behaviours that we can all start today to ensure healthy ageing, they are — not smoking, moderate drinking, regular exercise and eating fruits and vegetables daily.“These strategies can start today, all we need to do is to make that personal commitment to ageing healthy and gracefully.”
