A No-Nonsense Aproach to Staying Healthy After 50
By Janet Horn, MD, and Robin H. Miller, MD
Review by Dotsie Bregel

BoomerWomenSpeak.com
Baby boomer women are interested in managing their health. The generation of
women born between 1946 and 1964 are healthier and better educated than prior
generations of women. They want to be involved with their health care
management. This guide allows them to speak intelligently about their health
concerns.
Written in an up front, concise manner, for the everyday women to understand, The Smart Woman’s Midlife Guide offers women an in depth encyclopedia about
what happens with their body parts as they mature, and how to care for them. The
authors share patient and personal stories that every woman can relate to. Their
writing style and doctor chats at the end of every chapter make you feel as
though they’re sitting with you at your Girl’s Night Out group as they discuss
personal health topics near and dear to your hearts (ones you’ve discussed with
your sisters and friends). You’re gonna love these two women doctors who speak
your language, are very down to earth, and offer fantastic advice for women in
their middle years.
If you’re attempting your best midlife, I highly recommend this book to either
read from cover to cover, or to rest on your bookshelf so you can reference
whenever you’re interested in learning more about your maturing body.
