How can we lose weight to prepare for operations? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A few days ago, a friend told me that she's been asked by a surgeon to lose 15 kg. She's very upset about this. The discussion took place in an outpatient consultation prior to her having a hip replacement. She had thought she'd have the operation soon, but it seems she must lose the weight first. She's in significant pain and says she's always been hopeless at dieting. No wonder she's distressed. I know she's not alone. I'm sure a number of people reading this column are in the same boat or hav
Let's use common sense to tackle inflammation (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Last week I wrote about avoiding or delaying fragility. I think this is quite a difficult topic, but what I said seems to have resonated with many of you judging by the responses I’ve had to it. This week, I’m tackling inflammation, which is another condition that is tough to comprehend but which can cause serious damage to our health. The trouble is that it’s not easy to measure or identify. It’s important though, because earlier this year, new research showed that in the UK over two-thirds of
Letâs do all we can to delay frailty for as long as possible (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The other day, I met a former colleague I hadnât seen for a while, and I couldnât believe how she had altered. She looked 20 years older than I was expecting. I know that people can suddenly age, but she is younger than me and her appearance was a real shock. She said that she feels tired much of the time and has less energy than usual, and that she had lost some weight without trying to. Apparently, sheâs seen a doctor and had various tests, but they didnât reveal anything serious, thou
It's never too late to pick up an instrument and fall in love with music (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We’re really lucky here in East Anglia to have so much music around us in the shape of good amateur choirs and orchestras, various festivals, and professional music-making at the highest levels in Snape and elsewhere. We are also fortunate to be a nation with more than 20 amazing world-class orchestras and ensembles, and to produce top-class musicians who are revered globally. All this makes what has happened to musical education in the UK utterly bewildering. As parents and grandparents, many o
One simple thing can improve balance and reduce risk of early death (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I’m writing about balance this week – which is a vital factor in ageing positively, confidence, posture, and not looking doddery. A study published by the British Journal of Sports Science in 2022 showed that people who cannot stand on one leg and balance for at least 10 seconds have more than double the risk of dying prematurely than those who can. This is a serious statistic and certainly makes me want to be as steady on my feet as possible. Also today, I want to mention temporary problems wit
