#88 - Como é ter longevidade com autonomia motora e cognitiva

Brazil follows a global trend of population aging. Data from the 2022 Census shows that 10.9% of Brazilians are 65 years of age or older — a growth of 57.4% in just over a decade. Faced with this scenario, experts emphasize that living longer is not the only goal: it is necessary to ensure autonomy and quality of life throughout the years. In this episode of the Sua Saúde podcast, the vice-president of CRM-SC, Marcelo Lemos dos Reis, talks with geriatrician Juliane Ferrari, who explains that aging with motor and cognitive autonomy means maintaining the ability to perform daily activities independently, preserving both movement and mental functions.
