Healthy Ageing Elixir Recipe Review

The challenge has started! The wiz team is really excited to produce a new elixir* that has never existed before! To start it off, the wiz team decided to review recipes** and existing elixirs created by fellow wizards and witches*** instead of throwing in all the magical ingredients together~


Wizzes hard at work here!


Our brain juices are flowing~


The elderly population is increasing rapidly. Wizards and witches are really concerned about this issue and the wiz team wants to rectify this problem with the new potion. Besides facing stereotypes that affects how the society views them and negatively impacting their mental and physical performances, elderly people also tend to feel lonely and are often neglected by the community and loved ones. This is especially so if the elderly lives alone.

Healthy ageing is one approach to aid people in aging gracefully and still feel valued by the society even as they retire.

Here are some of the existing potions that the wiz team has found:
•  App for elderly to reflect on own medication intake [1]
•  Rehabilitative systems for people who suffer strokes [2]
•  Check on family members across the country [3]
•  Photostroller – promote interaction & engagement among residents [4]
