Summary of Living Well: Taking Care of Yourself in the Middle and Later Years (Large Print Edition)

Medical care allows us to live longer, but to enjoy life we need to stay healthy. Living Well presents a thorough but unstressful program for keeping in good mental and physical shape as we grow older, with advice on everything from choosing a doctor to having a happy sex life. Here you will find up-to-date information about how many diseases associated with aging, such as osteoarthritis, diabetes, and atherosclerosis, can be avoided or put off, along with clear advice on financial planning, medications, and keeping your mind active.This edition of Living Well has been improved with forty-five easy-to-use decision charts and large easy-to-read print. Always mindful of helping readers make and preserve choices in medical care, Drs. Vickery and Fries have designed each chart-on hip pain to incontinence to diet and exercise-to provide valuable advice on solving a specific problem of later life.
