Weekend Roundup - Santa Cruz Edition

Just came back from another wonderful day spent in downtown Santa Cruz. I won’t bother you with the details but I must say that the weather was perfect and we had a really great time. And with that, here are some health articles from this week that I thought you might find useful.

All too many people associate eating healthy and being physically active with younger folks. However, that’s absolutely untrue. In fact, physical fitness might be even more important for the elderly. It can reduce the risks of everything from heart disease to Alzheimer’s. So here’s an interesting article from the Arkansas Gazette about a few senior citizens who are taking their health into their own hands.

I used to do posts with a list of tips in them until I realized that a lot of them get really repetitive. That’s why I try to avoid linking to similar articles since I find a lot of them say the same things over and over. However, I liked the following article. It’s from the Common Voice and it gives a list of 20 simple health and fitness tips. Nothing revolutionary here but still worth reading.

Summer is coming, and a lot of people are thinking about vacations. I know my wife and I are planning some travel and I hope all of you take the chance to occasionally explore the world around you. However, all too often, vacations become an excuse to overeat, sleep all day and gain 20 lbs in the process. So read the following article and learn how to spend money on vacations and not on diet.
