NIH Senior Health

Welcome to the National Institute of Health’s site for Senior Health information.

I love that this site was designed with seniors in mind; the font is easily changed between three sizes and you can even change the contrast colors of the site so it is easier to read.

You’ll find two important menus – the one at the very top of the page (containing the categories Health Topics A-Z and Video A-Z), and the menu right on the main page that lists health topics by their first letter from A to Z. I love that they’ve made the Health Topics doubly accessible. You’ll also find a lot of great information featured on the main page like exercise stories, health video, and the link to sign up for e-mail updates. 

To begin navigating I’d suggest either clicking the letter of a health topic you are curious about or checking out the video topics.  When you explore a topic you’ll find lots of information, images, and links to more information – or even quizzes to help you fully understand the topic. If there is a video for that topic then you will find that too! 

This site is a great place to look into health topics that affect seniors. Check it out today!

  1. Thanks for info but you did not mention that Trump and the GOP are doing all they can to destroy the NIH and defund all their programs. So the web site could disappear at any time or important information removed.
