Genetics may also play a role in how and where we store fat as we age. The good news is that exercise can help alleviate a lot of menopause complications. It reduces the incidence of high blood pressure, heart disease, strokes and hot flashes.
Exercises that incorporate weights and stretching help strengthen bones and reduce osteoporosis. Yoga is a perfect workout for older women because it uses the body's weight as resistance and promotes flexibility. Start slowly if you're a novice exerciser, but it's never too late to start.
