Beschrijving

Since I retired, I've had the time to get back to some hobbies that have meant a lot to me over the years, but while working, I just didn't have the time to devote to them.  I'm now taking full advantage of that and in today's episode I'll talk a little about my rediscovered love of reading.

Episode 9 - Super Agers

The first time I heard the term Super Ager, was from an article in the November 2023 AARP Bulletin.  I initially thought that they were using some catchy phrase to describe people who at lived to some age milestone, but that’s not all of it.  There really is a category of older humans that are classified as “Super Agers”.  The AARP article defined a Super Ager as “someone over 80 with an exceptional memory—one at least as good as a person 20 to 30 years younger”.  I was fascinated by the concept and decided to investigate it a little further and found that there are quite a few studies, either past or current that have been designed to determine how this happens and are there commonalities among those within the classification.  And the cognitive abilities of the so-called Super Agers are more than just a good memory.   Today, I want to look at some common traits that super agers possess.  Is it possible to turn ourselves into a super ager and are there negative impacts to living deep into our 80s, 90s or beyond 100.
