Prone to Falling? Take THIS Test Immediately

Dear Turapür Today Reader,
As we age, we all have to face an unfortunate reality.
Sometimes our bodies just don’t work like they used to.
Maybe we struggle seeing things that were once crystal clear… or find yourself struggling to hear everyday conversations.
Or even worse, our balance and strength begin to fail us… leading to dangerous FALLS!
In fact, about one third of older people who live at home fall at least ONCE A YEAR.
And in the United States, falls are the LEADING CAUSE of accidental death and the 7th leading cause of death in people age 65 or over.
And once a person has had a fall… they are more likely to fall again.
If this has happened to you (or someone you love), I’m here to tell you there is some good news.
If you’re terrified of falling (either now, or in the future), there’s a NEW test you can take IMMEDIATELY that could end up saving your life.
Scientists at Staffordshire University have developed a SIMPLE clinical test that can assess the lower limb strength of seniors to predict their risk of falls.
And the test requires ZERO fancy equipment… or expensive trips to a doctor. All you need is a card and your big toe!
They call it the ”enhanced paper grip test” which involves pulling a small card from underneath the foot while gripping it with the big toe.
If a card can be easily pulled away from the grip of the big toe, it could be a sign that you’re susceptible to life-altering falls.
You may be asking… how in the world does a big toe predict if I’m going to fall?!
Remember, our feet as the cornerstone of stability and movement. It’s where the ‘rubber meets the road.’

And big toe grip (also called Hallux grip force) has been strongly linked to the strength of ALL muscle groups of the foot and ankle and to the ability to maintain balance.
So, if you’re having issues with your balance and stability, it’s probably time to talk to your doctor about taking this quick and easy test.
It could just be the thing that saves you from any future falls.
