Living better and longer
Living Better, Longer
We are living longer and healthier than ever before. The proportion of older adults with chronic disease or disability has declined.
Eating Well, Staying Fit
Aging doesn't excuse older adults from the need to follow a healthy diet and get regular exercise.
Prevention, Self Care and Safety
Much of the illness, disability and death linked with chronic disease can be avoided by taking preventive measures.
Using Medications and Supplements
People ages 65 and older take more prescription and over-the-counter medicines than any other age group.
Health Concerns
Here's information on common health concerns for older adults, including type 2 diabetes, arthritis and depression.
For the Caregiver
Find out more about how to make your role as caregiver more effective and less stressful.
Medicare Part D
A lot of seniors feel puzzled by the new Medicare prescription drug program. Some are so confused that they may not even sign up. But missing out on the benefits of Medicare Part D could be a mistake.
