| Top 6 Fitness Tips For Baby Boomers And Older Adults | | 2008-07-10 22:18:00 | | The age of the baby boomer is upon us and this feisty group of retirees are more active than any other retired generation. The key to keeping them active and happy is to offer fitness tips that are worth their time and fun to accomplish. Here are the top 6 fitness tips for baby boomers: 1. Listen to your body. As the body ages, it tends to take longer to recover. The key to keeping active well into your aging years is to listen to what your body is telling you. Some activities of your youth may be too strenuous for the body as you age, but that does not mean you can not adjust those activities to be less taxing on the body. The aches and pains associated with fitness are the body telling you that it needs to rest. 2. Keep the doctor informed. Your doctor needs to have all of the information pertaining to your body. When visiting the doctor, tell them about your fitness program and how the exercise makes you feel. Write down the program you are following just in case some of the aches y... | | By: Baby Health Care | | |
| | How Are Baby Boomers Changing Dentistry? | | 2008-07-05 22:21:00 | | Today, the Baby Boomer generation accounts for the largest demographic of the patients treated. Advances in pharmaceutical and medical research have kept this group healthier longer than any other time in history. As dentists, we no longer see as many people who need full dentures. The Boomers benefited from water fluoridation and have managed to keep their teeth for most of their adult life. But they not only want to keep their teeth, they also want their teeth to look nice. They invest lots of money for cosmetic treatments, both dental and medical to maintain a youthful appearance. The dental practice model has changed also. We have moved away from the insurance-driven, “drill, fill, and bill” concept. We spend more time educating patients about the impact oral health has on the entire body. We now treat periodontal disease with more emphasis because researchers have found periodontal pathogens in arterial plaques. Research also has shown a link between periodontal disease, high ... | | By: Baby Health Care | | |

| Baby Boomers! Cant wait for that perfect vacation | | 2008-06-25 21:23:00 | | With the first baby boomers now officially reaching retirement age, many are looking at life settlements as an alternative to surrendering or letting their insurance policies lapse. Whether because of their inability or desire to continue to pay rising premiums, or because of the lack of need for the policy, they are realizing the benefits of having the option to sell. For those that qualify, life settlements can provide a cash infusion greater than the surrender value of a policy. They can also be used as an alternative investment. Term policies, which have no underlying cash value and typically disappear once surrendered, often have some value. Keep in mind that life settlements are not appropriate for everyone and it is estimated that 1 in 5 policyholders over age 65 are eligible. Prior to the rise of life settlements about ten years ago, the only option the insured had when they could not or did not want to make payments was to surrender the policy. Those that are surrendered and h... | | By: Baby Health Care | | |
| | Single baby boomers want sex not marriage | | 2008-06-05 01:19:00 | | Toronto: Single baby boomers are enjoying better sex, are open to threesomes and are not looking to get married, according to a new poll.Forty-six per cent of the 1,000 adults born between 1946 and 1964 who were questioned in the survey said they enjoyed sex more now than they did during their 20s and 30s."I think we're looking at a generation that really sees this time as a great period in life," said Marina Glogovac, of the online dating site Lavalife which conducted the poll."Most of these people are looking to enhance their lives, so they're not really sitting there and saying I'm desperate, I need to live with someone.

| | Baby Boomers: Get a Boost with an Anti-Aging Supplement | | 2008-04-21 00:03:00 | | There's little doubt that we Baby Boomers are in a bit of a quandary. We may not feel like we're getting older, but the mirror tells us otherwise. Some of us have retired, while others of us are looking forward to the day when we close our office door and walk out of the building for the last time. All of the evidence suggests that we'll live at least another quarter of a century after retirement, and most of us have plans for living life to the fullest. We'll be traveling, volunteering, and enjoying our grandchildren. We'll also follow our passions, which may lead us down a path of exploring new hobbies, starting a new business, or taking on a part-time job on our own terms. The linchpin to all of our dreams and aspirations, though, is our ability to stay healthy and fit. That's why an anti-aging supplement is high on the "must have" list of most Baby Boomers.When it comes to stopping and reversing the signs of aging, an antioxidant formula is key.

| Anti-Aging Tips for Baby Boomers in Retirement | | 2008-03-30 00:12:00 | | Many baby boomers in retirement are becoming more and more concerned with their health needs. Aging has become a reality, so they must take steps to improve or maintain good health and slow the aging process.According to a recent study by Herbal News Magazine, baby boomers born between 1948 and 1953 evaluated their general health more poorly than their elders, based on a similar study conducted in 1992. Perhaps this happened because the Baby Boom generation was generally less physically active than their elders had been, both at home and at work. Less physical activity and poor eating habits have led to many cases of diabetes, obesity, high cholesterol, and high blood pressure among baby boomers in retirement.Fortunately, it's not too late for baby boomers to become pro-active in their own physical well-being. These anti-aging and health tips can help.Use Herbs to Supplement DietHerbs have been around since the earth's beginnings and can often be found in seasoning and spices we use, p... | | By: Baby Health Care | | |

| | Web Design Marketing Podcast (EP3) - Targeting Baby Boomers | | 2007-05-29 15:14:18 | |
[display_podcast]
In our last podcast I discussed why it is important to market to a specific group. Today I am going to discuss targeting baby boomers. I picked baby boomers first because they tend to have the most spending power, and are one of the largest groups at this point in time. (Ages 43 - 61).
The spending power of this generation in both consumer and services is hard to ignore.
Some of the things they respond to:
Status / Heros
Iconic Authority
Trailblazers
Items that are earned
Comfort
Perks
Anti-Aging
Baby Boomer Attitude
Baby boomers tend to be marketing influenced. This means that they are much more likely to believe what marketing material tells them compared to the younger Generation-X. They tend to be more resistent to technology, but have high desires for anything that shows that they have earned luxury and status. They are beyond their midlife and are starting to think about death and retirement, so anti-aging is very important to this group.
