Smart Baby Boomer Women-Avoid These Health Mistakes

Posted by Rosie on October 11, 2009

I just read this powerful article on the” 14 Mistakes Even Smart Women Make”. Now, since most of the folks reading this post are probably baby boomers or related to baby boomers I thought this article would be helpful.

I like it because it looks at some areas related to prevention we thought we knew but might have missed a step or two.  Personally, I know more about lead poisoning as it relates to men and children. Never knew the work done related to stroke risk and women.

Of course, this means I will research this point a bit more but the suggestion the authors make regarding running water is a bona fide good practice to reduce the lead content in your water. You can visit great sites like Be In The Know NJ for great resources on lead poisoning.

Meanwhile, check out this article published today on AOL regarding health mistakes many women may be making each day.
