Tak salah nak cuba intermittent fasting, tapi always consult with your doctor first.

Especially for older adults, what works for one person may not work for another.

Make sure you’re still getting enough nutrition, protein and fluids to stay strong and healthy.

Sakit belakang bila buat kerja harian? Jangan salahkan umur dulu.

Cara kita bergerak setiap hari boleh beri kesan pada spine, especially as we get older. Jaga pergerakan, jaga badan—so you can keep doing the things you love for longer.

Jangan tunggu jatuh baru nak jaga balance.

Balance boleh dilatih! Sedikit latihan setiap minggu boleh membantu anda bergerak dengan lebih yakin dan mengurangkan risiko jatuh.

Pickleball memang best… tapi jangan lupa main dengan selamat.

Kalau ada masalah balance, osteoporosis, atau pernah jatuh sebelum ini, jangan abaikan risiko kecederaan.

Stay active, but play smart—because healthy ageing is about moving safely, not stopping.

Getting older doesn’t mean you have to stop doing what you love.

For older adults, activities like pickleball can be a great way to stay active, social, and improve overall wellbeing. But with age, balance, bones, and joints need extra attention.

Play smart, stay safe, and keep moving—because healthy ageing is about staying independent and enjoying life.

Healthy ageing starts with a healthy liver.

As we age, our liver continues to play an important role in processing medications, storing nutrients, and protecting our body.

That’s why looking after your liver is just as important as looking after your heart or brain.

Sometimes, older adults don’t need louder voices—they need kinder words.

The way we speak can comfort, build trust, and make someone feel safe. These are 5 phrases I often use as a geriatrician that remind my patients they’re never alone.

Which one would you say to someone you love today?

Sometimes, the right words can heal too.

As a geriatrician, caring for older adults isn’t just about medication—it’s also about listening, showing patience, and making them feel heard. Because every conversation matters.

This World Brain Day, remember—it’s never too early or too late to care for your brain.

Healthy ageing starts with healthy habits. Stay active, eat well, keep your mind engaged, and don’t ignore changes in memory or thinking.

Small steps today can help protect your brain for tomorrow.
