Summer, a Dangerous Time For Senior Citizens
Hi Folks,
Boy is it hot here! mid to upper 90′s with heat indexes over 100 for the past week and this week isn’t looking much better!
At exercise this morning one of our guys got a little overheated and “blacked out” for a second and fell. He wasn’t hurt and is back to his old self but it served as a warning – us seniors have to go a little slower and watch ourselves a little closer.
Most of my senior friends are in great shape but they realize they are not as young as they used to be, so they go about their lives at a little different pace. . . Smart!

Myths About the Aging Brain and Memory Loss
Hi Folks,
Most of my friends are seniors which only stands to reason since I’m also a senior and retired.
It’s only natural that I’m around a lot of seniors every day so I make it a point of listening closely to what they talk about. And I can tell you that during any conversation that lasts more than just a few minutes someone will make a comment about memory loss. Senior moments and forgetfulness seems to be a chief concern with my senior friends. More than any other health concern.
And this brings me to the subject of today’s article: Myths about the aging brain and memory loss.

Tips for a Healthy Retirement
Hi Folks,
One of the foundation stones for a happy retirement is good health. And, as we all know, this means getting regular exercise, adeqauate rest, and eating right.
As we age our bodies do not process certain foods as well as they once did. Meaning we need to cut back on some foods which were once important to our good health and increase our intake of other foods that contain nutrients that we need more of.
