It’s no secret we’re in a wellness revolution. The massive baby boomer population, skyrocketing health care costs, and trends in our overall health status are demanding a change in lifestyles. According to the American Hospital Association (www.aha.org), by the year 2030 six of ten baby boomers will manage more than one chronic disease such as obesity, diabetes or arthritis. Other predictions are we’ll live longer, but at a questionable quality of life.

If you want both a long lifeline and a high quality of life, consider Aging Fabulously from the inside out. It’s well within your control. Healthy aging medical guru Dr. Mehmet Oz says once we pass age 50, more than 80% of how well we age is within our control. What do we control? Our lifestyle choices: Nutrition, Exercise, and Daily Stress.

Here’s what you can do starting right now. Take control of your moment-to-moment choices in these three areas. Learn about healthy nutrition. Start with the venerable Food Guide Pyramid (www.mypyramid.gov) and tailor it to your needs and preferences. The same website can guide you toward being more physically active. Pay attention to how you feel and manage your daily stress levels. If you’re not sure where to start or you prefer a coach, a good counselor can shorten your path to good health by guiding you in all three areas.

The best way to age well is to take charge. With today’s advances in medical science, we have key biomarkers of good health and known health risk factors. Get knowledgeable about your health status.
