Turning
50 is the age when most baby boomers turn attention to their health. A
new study found that the early 50s are a time when people are most
interested in health issues with milestones like colonoscopies,
mammograms and prostate tests. The focus on health wanes but returns
again near age 65 as many become eligible for Medicare. Source Link
Are
you using all of your vacation time this year? If the answer is “no”
you’re not alone. A new survey found that American workers average 14
days of vacation annually but take only 12 of them. Japanese workers use
the fewest vacation days at only five per year, while the French are
the world’s vacation leaders with 30 days off each year. Source Link
If
you want to avoid ending your Thanksgiving with a visit to the ER, here
are some tips for a healthy holiday meal. Be sure your turkey is
thoroughly cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees to avoid
food poisoning. And take your time finishing off the feast: eating too
quickly can cause heartburn and indigestion that may create chest pain
and prompt a call to 911. Source Link
