“New research from the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging (CLSA) reveals that nearly 1 in 4 older adults who were not in optimal well – being at baseline regained it within three years.
Those who were younger, married, physically active , non – smokers , had higher income , and fewer chronic conditions were more likely to recover well – being.
These findings suggest that declines in health and happiness with age aren’t inevitable – and that lifestyle and social factors can make a meaningful difference.”
