Balance Isn’t Just a Muscle Issue — It Starts in Your Inner Ear
Balance declines with age — but it’s not just due to weak legs. Your ears, joints, and brain all work together to keep you steady
What causes balance issues in older adults?

- Joint stiffness in ankles and knees reduces reflex time
- Vitamin D and magnesium deficiency can weaken stabilizer muscles
What to Do:
- Practice single-leg stands and heel-to-toe walks
- Eat vitamin D-rich foods (eggs, mushrooms, salmon)
- Add a magnesium glycinate supplement
FAQ:
