Baby boomers often make similar health mistakes
Researchers at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and Harvard Medical School have crunched the numbers, and the results are in: baby boomers are substantially more obese than the generations before them. Experts say that boomers seem to share many of the same habits and traits when it comes to managing their health. For example, according to surveys many baby boomers blame genetics for high blood pressure, think it's already too late to do anything to improve their health, and are even overly optimistic about their health at times.
Doctors stress that it's never too late to start taking care of yourself and improving your health, especially since they often hear boomers say they wish they'd taken better care of themselves when they were younger. One expert suggests choosing one "issue" at a time, and focusing on that before moving on to the next thing.
