good evening welcome
it does not matter if you are 30 or 90 years old
nobody tell you when you’re old
because if you ask a child you’re going
to say that you are old because as to the
30 but if you ask a biologist
will say that at 25
begins to age your body and if you
questions really to any other
person as a neurologist will tell you that
your brain stops making connections from
the dendrites from left
of 30 years but there are also
young people of 70 because faith jez is not
same in some and others there is no old age
unequal
we want to think about it like that but it’s not like that and
it’s not about vanity we do not
confuse is not a problem of vanity
we are talking about something different
we are talking about doing things
and say things and that really that’s what
that will make a difference
but then if what I turned around and see
around me
I really do not like that when he turned around
and I see those grandparents have harmed 2
when he turned around and I see those old
thrown in the street
and I say that is what I would not want to know
really what am I doing to make
be different to me, which is what I am
doing to be different
we said not only is it a matter of
attitude
there is much more than you
where then that difference
where does that process come through
which we should make a
reflection and think about why the
old age is a problem old age is a
problem because it really has to do
a lot with the demographics of this time
let’s see if now we can already
demographics have really notice
how was a pyramid and now it has
widened it has no way of
pyramid each time will have it less
then when the percentage of
Older people are growing by steps
gigantic and almost a quarter of
the population of the world are going to be
a quarter higher first
in 2050
we will see this phenomenon of the population
the phenomenon where there will be more
older than boys and girls in the world
this had never happened before in
the history of mankind
It was going to happen in 2050 but in Mexico
in Mexico they told us
europe is the true old continent
we are a country of young people but
they never told us when that was over
demographic bonus then that bonus
demographic ends in 2025
there are only eight years left because we are going to
grow at faster steps because
our growth rate has grown to
a level much faster than that of
world 70 percent recognizes having
some degree to move or walk
imagine 70 percent how they are
seen in society our elders
the older ones are seen and with some
terms I’ll define it very old
aversion disgust for old age
geronto phobia surplus human fear of
the old ones there is already a term to say
that there are people who are afraid of
the biggest fears the old syndrome
geronto phobic that they are going to
recognize more
that is the one that has to do with the
vanity industry is the one that nobody
wants to get old
who would want to get to old you
they would want to get old after what
what are we seeing with these
definitions that our culture is
making old age
none wanted old age is a subject
political is a complex issue
we can not go wrong
chando that is easy there is a theme that
it has to do with physical health with
mental health with relationships
social with psychological aspects and
emotional with economic aspects and
legal
see how many issues around the
old age when we talk about physical health
Most of us understand that
it has to do with diseases with
nutrition with exercise yet
that which harms our body
but really the mental health that is a
less touched topic of that is spoken very
little what do we know about health
mental
What we know is mental health is that
is much more linked to issues of
marginalization just like physical health
between more poverty and more marginalization
more physical health problems and
mental health
a grandfather in my research told me
knows what the real problem is
old age with that wisdom that they have
farmers
what is the real problem of the
Old age is not know when it
decompose is that was the expression that
you used you do not know when it breaks you up and
clear, see how much wisdom because
we do not know either but it does not happen
nothing after but when it breaks you
is when is it going to make a difference in
your life
the fear of Alzheimer’s we all have it
70 percent of people
diagnosed with dementia what
really suffer from Alzheimer’s is the
senile dementia and there is depression
due to the nature of that disease
that are misdiagnosed we are not
prepared to think about health
mental as well as the parents I tell them
and some laugh they give themselves when you
mansi for photographs and here is your
certificate primary secondary
prepa should tell you so firm
here that from this moment is done
responsible for your physical and mental health
firm because there really is a void
there while they are children, the parents
they deal with health
here and mental when they spend doing more
big and until they get sick of
something nobody deals with health
physical and mental
another flight told me in the in the
investigations these said to me susan to
my generation deceived her as her
generation deceived him the most or
less than 75 years that deceived her
yes I did because they told me that I
I will retire the 60 that I dedicated to
do what I wanted because I was going to
die very soon
that meant that the most I was going to
be old when I turned 60 was ten
years more but it turns out that I am 75 and
I’m still very good because of course
gentlemen 30 or 40 years we are going to do
old no longer going to be old only
ten years as it was until very recently
to be old for 30 or 40 years
who is prepared for that and when
we talk about the economic condition that
Coupled with this is we are concerned
poverty in a country as rich as
ours and we are concerned to talk about 40
percent of poverty
when we talk about older adults
when we talk about our elders
that poverty in percentage rises to 80
percent because they are violated 80
percent are in a situation of
poverty
and when we talk about good work
forget at 60
if there are people of 40 who do not get
work imagine that of the 60 in
legal issues there are many things that are not
they know about the rights and the laws are
pretty well written like almost all
the laws of our country but
hardly its application is the
correct
the legal system does certain
protections in theory but in the
very few actually know my rights
and how does the law matter change to
be a very important issue for all
for example the rights of parents
of being maintained by children by law
just as there is a right of children to
be maintained by parents
you have to observe these things in the
psychological and emotional factors
Because the elderly are so alone
because there is so much loneliness in the elderly
where are the friends where is the
family where are the children where
they are all around them
that has changed a lot because the
families have changed a lot and I though
they laugh they tell them ask God to have
many daughters because more than 90 per
one hundred of the elderly caregivers are
women is reality and those who do not
have daughters, well, well, porten
well with his era
imagine when we talk about factors
psychological that we are also
saying that the global organization of
health says at 60 you’re old
is the regulatory age can already be
considered old and then those of 59
they start to tremble because they already know that
the 60s are going to have bullying of the
friends then at sixty-one
psychological factor that impacts you and the
Experts do not say that it will be better
the experts say that you are not going to have
a better old age of our generations
because it ‘s very easy nutrition is not
polypharmacy medicate so good we
all the time in all ways the
antibiotics start to give from
children
stress pollution where
we believe we will be better than the
that we see today they ate better
they had less stress to an old man
you are prescribed 3 to 12 medications per
day
that ‘s what is getting into your
organism there is a fantastic geriatrician
here in morelos the doctor felix who
says three questions
3 and I tell you how your old age will be like this
as a magician llosa told him three questions and
I tell you how your old age is going to be
the first one that you put into your body and
we do not talk anything more about food
we talk about leticia your body think
in coffee soda alcohol alcohol drug that
you put your body
here he was especially and with
dedication to young people the people who
lives in excess for the happiness of
moment believes that its only consequence
will live less and is willing to
face it but not your possibility is not
I live – technology and science
has advanced a lot for the hope of
life grows
we are talking about what we are going to do
old 30 or 40 years old
then that is not your problem your
problem is how are they going to get and
Surely they will come dependent
because the time will be the same and they will
get much more dependent
so I want to make them a
reflection see this vase
imagine that this precious transparent
shining his body since he was born
imagine imagine what the body is
perfect that they inherited that body
perfect crystalline and I decide once
I just breastfeed myself and we’re going to
suppose that with a very conscious mother
to give you your food very well
stop smoking until age 8 and
all these things or assume that that
body is still perfect until the
adolescence came all the essence and of
suddenly you decided a little Benedict and you start
to put your body a little benito choose
who wants alcohol cigars that goes
happening they observe what is happening that
not passing these white flowers
precious are his old age that is passing
with his organism that is going through his
body but I did not settle for a
benito I settle for many crimes and
then start to put
poisons and poisons all this
all this that I am getting to my
body and those of us who were in high school
We know perfectly well what will happen in
the future with these beautiful flowers
white
what will happen to them what color
they will go black
nobody tells you that everything you put into it
your body adds everything that gets him
the exercise the second question what
I was doing the doctor 6
the first one remember that you put your
body the second exercise all
they say exercise yes or yes
good is true but not the excess
exercise also do not exercise
says if you do not exercise I know where
well your evils come from inside you
body and it is done is too much exercise
come from your joints of your
bones of your joints but both
extremes are bad
then the exercise is not optional the
Exercise is not optional
the exercise is not optional the last
question that asks them what they think is
how much stress you put into your life is
very great the size of stress that
we put into our lives if what I see does not
I like how I can do it then
different
look carefully prevention is the subject
we are talking about prevention I
I will give the first advice of
prevention study the genetics of their
parents and their grandparents
that’s what is going to make a difference
they study their genetics and pruning and they can
see that his own inheritance comes and
I studied they studied about what is the
prevention
eat more healthy moderate exercise
sleep schedules brain exercise
invest now really all that was what
that I was doing in my life
after reading so many things and when
I say moderate exercise believe me it
they are told by someone who does not
absolutely no exercise and that
today already made triathlons and already it seems
doing triathlon is this year because the
Exercise in excess is bad and you have to
go corresponding
Valera also then we expect a
you and I covenant if you today
find out about this they have this opportunity
I want to ask them to sensitize us
for those who are already injured
all those that are already violated what
we want to make a difference for them
respect sine qua non to the elderly
but with dignity because we are not
asking that poor of them
we are not saying what we need from
return to society
we are saying that we should not
build walls between them and us
we are saying that we can not say
that I already lived his life
they are living their life they are
living as we are living them
We value your wisdom your
experience seeks to help someone who already
is violated advance your own
experience
I created a phrase that says a word
that says wireless
Get yourself even older to be a tutor in
life and tell them do not be white white
of wisdom them without wisdom do not be
a person without wisdom that is going to
overtake in your time let’s not do it
invisible we help to live with dignity
because we will be planting for our
own future that is the most important thing
they are not planting who knows to
who are we sowing for our
own future
we made this campaign love does not forget
take care who takes care of you and these for
sensitize and in that covenant
I ask you to spread this campaign my
Granny does not remember me but I never
I will forget the omi grandfather does not have
facebook but still remember my
birthday
these are some of the images that
we started to drive but the second thing is
challenge your own old age at 30 or even
the 90 years that nobody tells you that
you are old is a personal decision
I say when I’m old I should
set when I want to get to leave
to be functional
I decide when to do it and then
there we are going to say that the youth
Take heed is
If I’m old when I decide not to
for vanity
when I decide and I’m telling you
that I have challenged my own old age up
a triathlon ends up doing a PhD
at 50 years old
I am challenging my own old age and the
invited to do it because really the
youth is a matter of faith but of
birthdate
only and ended this talk
telling them why being old is
also associated with freedom to
independence to tranquility to the
wisdom and why being old is better
that the alternative for son
