Join Caroline for Part 5 of our “What Is Aging?” series covering the digestive system, as well as bowel and bladder continence. We discuss common age related changes like nutrient absorption, digestive motility, constipation, and incontinence. We also talk about the role of physical therapy and health coaching in improving these systems with age.
