Who is a boomer?  Anyone born between 1946 and 1964 qualifies.  There are 78 million of us and we have a voice indeed!  We are 42% of the adult generation.  We buy 45% of all consumer goods.  And we have 77% of discretionary wealth.  We are a force to be reckoned with.

But we are getting older.  And we want to remain youthful looking and youthful acting.  But our joints are wearing out and our faces have wrinkles.  And we want to fix that.  If we can.  Many of us have chronic diseases that have to be managed.  And many of us are overweight.  

We are [somewhat] tech savvy and we want to have [some] control over our health.  

To help with this new series, I have engaged the collaboration of an experienced colleague.
