Andrew Weil, MD, an influential advocate of alternative/integrative medicine has decided to age gracefully.  (Los Angeles Times, December 5, 2025, Aging with grace, naturally.)

 Age gracefully?  He has to be kidding!

 From my 76-year-old perspective, Weil, at 63, is a youngster who has made an untimely decision to become a poster boy for acceptance of early decline.  Unfortunately, countless people will follow his example.

 Its difficult to be at odds with Dr.  Weil.  His advocacy of healthy living is without peer.  His recognition of the role of inflammation in the disease process is light years ahead of traditional medicine.  He has deserved to be respected and praised. Dr.  Weils decision to succumb to graceful aging appears to be his belief that its not possible to reverse the aging process.  It cant be, and everyone knows that.  But what everyone should know, and should be encouraged to know, is that the aging process can be managed and controlled, enabling those in their 70s and 80s to do what they were able to do 25 years earlier.  It is deliberately, obstinately, and passionately aging. The term aging gracefully means different things to different people.  It does not imply toughness, that much is certain. To me, aging gracefully means letting go, just letting life happen.  It suggests giving up goals, dreams, productivity, and challenge.  Its placidly waiting for death.  A hallmark of graceful aging is a subtle but rapid and relentless onset of typical signs of oldness.

 Aging gracefully is an accepted part of life for many people. After all, regardless of how well we live, we are born to die. We take vitamins, eat right, exercise, and then we die anyway.  So it makes sense to enjoy life as much as possible.

 Youth is a gift.  It takes work in later life to maintain youthful characteristics like mental and physical strength, flexibility, and independence. It means ignoring what tradition or custom has set as a standard for a given stage of life.  Daringly different, it is. Its putting a treadmill next to an inviting recliner in front of a TV and choosing to walk for an hour instead of sitting.  Its about deliberately opting to make the older years fun, rewarding, and even amazing.

 Many residents of nursing homes have chosen, or allowed themselves to age gracefully.  Perhaps they would not be where they are if they had made different lifestyle choices early on.  According to gerontologist John W.  Rowe, MD, 70 percent of the aging process is controllable with wise lifestyle choices.  Thats an enormous amount of personal power to wield over the outcome of your life.  Why give it up for wimpy graceful aging?

 Dr.  Weil has made a decision to forfeit a large part of his aging power, but you dont have to.  You DO have choices.  You CAN manage your aging process.  Learn how to control, extend, and extend your best Boomer years into the future. Start now!
