The Baby Boomer's Guide to Women's Health is designed to explain the aging process to women as they grow older. It is a comprehensive, detailed look not only at the way your body changes, but a guide to prevention of certain diseases as well. Relying on the analogy of the human body as a "house", the authors lead you on a tour of the body's systems, described as "rooms", to discover how each of them work. Illustrations, drawings, and the most up-to-date information available will help you understand each system's function: how it performs as well as the best ways to protect it from the sometimes debilitating effects of the aging process. Just because you're aging doesn't mean you have to start feeling old before your time. You can live a full, healthy, and energetic lifestyle--this book tells you how.
