[|Human|] Hello. My dad has recently declined health-wise and I am wondering what could possibly be wrong with him. He s 63 years old and smoked most of his life. He quit about two years ago. He also worked as a welder in a blacksmith shop for 45 years. He is down to skin and bones, literally can see shoulder blades sticking out even under a sweatshirt, yet his stomach seems to stick out as if it is bloated, and he s never been a guy with a big belly. He s picking at every bump/pimple he can find on his body. He s not sleeping much. He seems to be starting to have mind issues as well, like saying things that don t make sense, short term memory loss, etc. Most of the time he is absolutely exhausted and can sometimes barely stay awake while sitting in his chair while we are visiting him.

Dear, It seems that he has something serious on his mind which are disturbing him and telling upon his physical health also.  As you know mind and body are interrelated.

Finding tasks for them, keeping their mind busy, and rewarding them for a job well done will promote a desire for mentally stimulating activities. Your love and care will reverse the situation for bettermentHaving a healthy lifestyle, staying mentally active, and participating in social activities may help maintain mental function or postpone its decline. Intake of balanced diet containing all essential nutrients, fiber, vitamins, minerals in natural form, a lot of water, and yoga postures to detoxify and strengthening, stretching of arms and legs and whole body & Panama -deep breathing & meditation help to acquire well balanced body and mind.
