Top 10 Best "Aging" Books

The Second Half Begins at 50
Your Longevity Handbook

Othniel Seiden, MD & Jane Bilett, Ph.D.

Virtually all recent medical research on aging points to the fact that the human animal, you and me included, has the potential to live up to 120 years of age.

That means 120 active, happy and productive years ... not years in a rocking chair, wheel chair or nursing home. That being the case, THE SECOND HALF of our lives does indeed BEGIN AT 60... However, since most of us have spent the first part of our lives mistreating our God given equipment, this human body of ours; so we may not all make it to 120. But the good news is that most of us should be able to make it to 100 and well over. This book is dedicated at giving us the best possible chance at reaching as near as possible to our true life potential.

Let's re-emphasize, we are talking about healthy, happy, active and productive years full of the things we enjoy doing.

How often have you heard the question, "If you had it to do over again, what would you change?" Well, if you are coming up on 50, theoretically, you do have it all to do over again. Just think what you should be able to do with those years, knowing all that you've learned in the first 50! Follow this program, and within a year you should be as fit as you can be, and headed for as bright and long a future as possible, may you live to 120!

The baby boomers are finally at the door step of becoming old timers and that brings with it lots of concerns, not the least of which is, "Am I over the hill sexually?" We think back on how we viewed our parents... in fact our grand parents - when we were youngsters, teens, young couples and thought, "Could those old people still be doing it?" What's worse, we probably thought, "They couldn't be... what a gross thought!"

You bet they were, and in most cases they still are - doing it more than you'd ever have guessed. Furthermore, there isn't anything gross about it!

The fact is that the human animal is normally sexually active to the day it dies. Note we said normally. That is a very significant word. It means that if you are not sexually active it is not the norm.

Up until a few years ago, most of us thought it normal for sex to become less and less important after the age of 50 or 60. That's because no one asked the people who were over the ages of 50 or 60. But now that more people are living to be 70, 80, 90, and 100, we are starting to notice and ask. Research with the elderly shows quite clearly that sex is as important as ever; and quite frequently and happily more fun than ever. We should all be delighted to find that out because it gives us
lots to look forward to.

It also means that if you are not keeping up with the good old Jones's you should be checking it out.
Remember, the norm is that you should be getting it and enjoying it for a long time to come, and if you aren't, you should be questioning why not. In the great majority of cases what ever is stopping you can be remedied.

Sex in the Golden Years - the practice - is great and you should be staying sexually active for the rest of your life!

Sex in the Golden Years - the book - has the purpose of dispeling lots of the old myths and help us continue to be active and happy participants in nature's greatest gift.

Like our grandmother used to say; "If the good Lord didn't want us to do it, He wouldn't have made it feel so good!"
