70s was the age of baby boomers. All the products were centered towards babies and markets were flooded with baby products like Baby food, baby clothes, baby toys and what not? It is very interesting to know that all those babies are in their 30s and 40s now!
And once again the market is flooded with product for these grown up babies " yes, I am talking about skin care products, dry skin therapy, facial cleansers, and dry skin remedies. Everybody wants to cash this opportunity. But in the race to launch the product and get the profit as soon as possible many companies compromise on quality and we as end customer do not get an effective product.

Most people look forward to retirement. They envision this to be a time when they are not driven by the clock, have to commute or deal with work demands, and can do whatever they want. Even couples who have prepared financially for retirement are often taken aback to find that they have not prepared themselves for the emotional and mental changes that they experience after retirement.
Mistake #1:To Underestimate the Emotional Adjustment
Retirement foremost is a time of profound change. For instance, if both partners have held jobs they are now faced with figuring out how to spend days that suddenly allow for so much togetherness. If one partner has been home and the other enters that environment that also requires a major emotional adjustment. Couples who accept and acknowledge that their mixed emotional reactions are normal are well on the way to dealing with the changes.

Baby Boomers Ultimate Anti Aging Concepts: 5 Radical Tips
April 18, 2008 | Leave a Comment
Many of us “Baby Boomers” are each beginning to feel our age, and we’re starting to live it too. Every morning, clock radios everywhere announce the start of another day. As a typical boomer rolls out of bed, an old ache, pain, and/or little worry makes its presence known, just like the day before. The same beverage — coffee, tea, or maybe even caffeinated soda — is ingested in an attempt to energize the same tired face reflected in the morning mirror.
By the time we hit our 50’s, we may have feelings that our lives are not as they could be. Yes, there are pills, and many varieties of the “quick fix”’ (also called the “Life Makeover”) — everything from creams to diets and Bo-tox injections, perfect-sounding and easy “fountains of youth”, for ourselves. Let’s face it , most of us are looking for ways to slow the ticking of our biological clocks.

Baby Boomers Have Discovered The Fountain Of Youth
April 5, 2008 | Leave a Comment
There is a whole generation out there that is getting scared. They are getting scared of getting old and feeble. That generation which we commonly refer to as Baby Boomers have lived a life of vitality and carefree existence, but now as they start approaching retirement, they don’t want it to stop. But doesn’t becoming old mean you can’t be as active as you once were? Not really, and you better believe that these Baby Boomers are going to do everything in their power to stay active as long as they can.

What Lies Ahead
March 27, 2008 | Leave a Comment
I am a Baby Boomer. I was a working caregiver. I am a business owner providing elder care education through workshops at the work place. I recently attended an Annual Governor’s Conference on Aging. During those three days, attendees had the opportunity to listen to our state leaders, department heads and other professionals talk about, lecture, and impart information on aging. So what did I learn? I learned that if we’re not nervous, we should be. If we truly believe our government backed support system, i.e., Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, are prepared to handle the 76 million Baby Boomers approaching retirement age, think again.

The Importance Of Knowing

Her hair was disheveled, which was unusual for her. The mini stroke she’d suffered after the sudden death of her longtime friend (right at the breakfast table. Put her head down and BOOM. Transitioned into whatever awaits us upon death with nary a peep) was evident in her slowed speech and inflexible fingers.
“I’m not going to be around much longer”, she informed me. I gently confirmed with a question that she was ready to move on. “Yes”, she said. “But I’ll need a perm first”.
Just the week before, a nurse at the home had expressed his dismay at the process in which the death of residents were, or were not as the case may be, handled. The body removed, the room sanitized a new resident moving in as if the prior occupant never existed.

Future Of Baby Boomer Health Care
March 20, 2008 | Leave a Comment
A recent study shows that the aging of baby boomers will do more than merely increase the number of patients - it also will reduce the number of doctors and nurses available to care for them.
Nearly 13% of registered nurses in the U.S. will reach retirement age in five years, says a report by the Center for Health Workforce Studies at the State University of New York [SUNY] at Albany. Almost 44% will turn 65 by 2020.
Half of the country’s advanced practice nurses - those with enough training to prescribe drugs, work as anesthetists and deliver babies - will reach retirement age within 15 years. Despite an increase in newly licensed advance practice nurses, supply won’t meet demand.
