Taking care of the elderly is taking care of the future for all of us.

Today we celebrate the anniversary of the creation of the Statute of the Elderly (2003), which incorporates into Brazilian law principles and resolutions from international bodies such as the United Nations (UN) and the World Health Organization (WHO).

On this date, we also remember essential care for healthy aging: maintain a balanced diet, drink a lot of water, practice activities that exercise the body and mind, have satisfactory sleep and carry out periodic checkups.
