Physical & Mental Changes of Adulthood Mental Function – peaks in early adulthood (mid 30’s – late 40’s) Decline in mental abilities Loss of nerve cells, decrease in neurochemicals (ex. Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, etc.) Need to eat for mental health Getting older doesn’t mean getting dumber!! Number of successful people of advancing age Personality stays constant (even if filter changes) Experience is a valuable teacher (elder led societies) Senile dementia – loss of mental abilities Typically caused by disease ALS, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s Physical Changes Nutrition & sleep patterns Body begins to breakdown
