Medical researchers who wrote at the Journal of the American Medical Association say that studies indicate that one out of six post menopausal breast cancers can be avoided if women kept their weight withing 4 – 5 pounds after they turned 18. It has been seen in their researches that women who gained a lot of weight during their post menopausal period have high risks of acquiring breast cancer. They said that gaining extra weight may even cause death by breast cancer.

So keep that weight at a considerable level especially if you are in the post menopausal stage. This means that you should have more exercise and be wary on the kinds of food that you take everyday.

The booming industry of the Internet has gained a lot of popularity among seniors. Most campers find themselves online to chat and check e-mails from family members located in another state or even in a different country. They also check for investment options, entertainment articles and even research a little something about their health.

What attracts seniors the most is not particularly the designs but the content itself. They would need something beefy and a good read so as not to find themselves wasting their time staring at an article that makes no sense at all. When it comes to designs, it has to be plain and simple. Texts should be big enough and must be easy to read. On top of that, it has to match the seniors’ taste.

So if you are targeting a senior as your audience then make sure that your content is good, readable and accessible.

 

I came across an article in a senior magazine that I was reading awhile ago. It talked about a couple who got together in their early 50’s and got married eventually. After a couple of months, the relationship became quite stagnant and sore. They didn’t enjoy things together anymore. They consulted a therapist and they discovered that they did not have time together. They spent time with doing things such as work and they forget about each other. There seems to be no connection anymore.

Spending time together does not necessarily mean that you have to spend thousands of dollars on a vacation. Spend time together doing absolutely nothing. Sit by the couch and just talk, watch news together, drink some tea together and try to get in bed early just to cuddle and talk. Spending time does not mean spending money as well. So keep that relationship burning and try to spend time together before you get into some serious depression.

Macular Degeneration is a group of diseases that cause the sight sensing cells of the retina to lose function and eventually lose the central or detailed vision. This usually occurs to people ages 50 and above. There are 2 types of this disease, the wet and the dry. Most people acquire the dry one. The dry type produce yellowish deposits called drusen beneath the retina causing it to lose sensitivity to light. This does not cause total blindness.

To treat this, professionals recommend a Micro Acupuncture treatment which lasts for about 20 minutes. After 5 treatments, the patient will then be evaluated and tested in the visual field scan machine.
