Welcome to Elder Health Connection, a podcast where I gather innovators in elder healthcare to discuss their unique perspectives on caregiving and care receiving. My name is Caroline Morris and I use my combined experience in biochemistry, physical therapy, health coaching, and growing up next door to my grandparents, to dig deep into the complexities of aging and then draw out practical solutions that can fit into your life. I record this show from my home in Alexandria, VA, sometimes with input from my dogs, Vinny and Barry. Thank you for joining us today!

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.
