Senior Citizens Actually Feel Less Tired Than You
2013.12.13
You think you're feeling tired now? Just hang on until you reach your golden years because a new study might have just found a link between increasing age and decreasing fatigue.
In the study of nearly 13,000 Americans, it was the youngest people in the study who reportedly felt the most fatigued of all during daily activities. The difference between the two age groups was almost one full point on a scale of 0 to 6, with 6 representing "very tired."
The researchers also found that women reported feeling more tired than men, and that feelings of fatigue increased with each additional child in the family. The bright side for those of you who finished school and work out regularly is that the findings showed that being more educated and healthier makes you feel less tired.
