Yes, wrinkles, and memory lapses will occur. But guess what? Great things happen to our bodies after age 60, too: allergies decrease, weight often decreases naturally, teeth become less sensitive, catching colds occurs less frequently and relationships can be fabulous. And forget less energy - age doesn't cause weakness, only lack of activity does! The same holds true for the brain: age alone has no effect on thinking. This unique health guide reveals what to expect as the years pass, and, more importantly, provides specific, empowering advice on how to stop physical and mental decline in their tracks. Here's a healthy-living guide like no other. * Features strategies to improve memory and brain power and stay mentally active. * Includes ways to safeguard heart health and tackle high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, weight gain and stress. * Illustrates simple, effective movements that build muscle and keep joints supple. * A resource section is packed with information about leisure activities, travel, healthcare, finances, legal help and more.
