2、Messing Up Medications 用药混乱

The majority of seniors are on multiple medications and sometimes find it difficult or too bothersome to remember when and which medications to take each day. As a result, some seniors "adjust" their daily medication routine without talking to their physicians, Moore notes. To help keep medications organized and alleviate frustration, seniors should use weekly or monthly pill boxes and have a family member or friend help them fill pill boxes on a regular basis or make a color coded chart to help keep track of their pills and the times they need to be taken, she said.
大多数老年人同时在服用多种药物，有时候他们会觉得要记住每天在什么时候服用何种药物是相当困难和麻烦的事。于是乎，一些老年人没有与医生商量就 “调整”了每日的用药程序。摩尔提醒说，要想使药物组织有序，避免用药困扰，老年人应该使用每周或每月药片盒，并且需要一个亲属或者朋友帮助他们按照规律填满药盒，或者制作一个色码表帮助他们了解何时该吃什么药。

1、Lack of Exercise 缺乏运动

Keeping physically active is integral to keeping the heart, mind and bones healthy. For some seniors, physical restrictions make exercise a challenge, but there are still small ways to incorporate physical activity into a daily routine, such as parking further away from the store to get in a short walk. And, programs such as yoga, Pilates or Tai Chi can help with balance and weight loss and can be adapted to all levels of physical ability, Moore said.
坚持运动对于保持心脏、思维和骨骼的健康是不可或缺的。摩尔指出，对一些老年人来说，身体状况的约束使得体育锻炼颇具挑战性，但是仍然有些小办法可以让体育锻炼成为日常活动的一部分。比如停车时离商场稍远一些，这样就可以进行一次短途的徒步走。此外，一些运动项目比如瑜伽、普拉提或者太极拳可以帮助保持平衡性和减肥，它们对不同体质的人们来说都适用。

While it's not yet clear what role exercise plays in weight loss, it is soundly proven to pack a host of health benefits, including helping to keep the mind sharp.
虽然目前还不清楚体育锻炼在减肥中是如何发挥作用的，但是非常确定的是体育锻炼对健康而言好处多多，而且有助于保持思维敏捷。
