The 50+ Wellness Program

From Library Journal Individuals who control their own lifestyles and understand the physical changes that occur with aging will enjoy a healthier， more fulfilling maturity， say the authors of this book. This guide emphasizes the elimination of risk factors along with careful planning of a healthy lifestyle. Using check lists， tables， and diagrams， the book is devoted to health-related subjects such as nutrition and disease， food and drug interactions， the routine medical exam， and common physical problems， with a final chapter on financial planning. Discussions are brief， occasionally repetitious， and often bordering on the superficial. A better choice for wellness in the later years is the Columbia University School of Public Health Complete Guide to Health and Well-Being After 50 ( LJ 4/15/88).- Karen McNally Bensing， The Benjamin Rose Inst.
