Comment on Wave of Sickness and Disease Now Striking Baby Boomers AKA The Health Time Bomb by sdacudoc

The incidence of stroke has reduced in the past 50 years, but the severity has not. According to an article published in JAMA:

“The severity of stroke has not decreased and 30-day mortality has decreased significantly only in men, perhaps due to an older age at onset of stroke and more severe strokes in women. These sobering trends emphasize that while improved control of risk factors has lowered incidence of stroke, there is a need for greater primary prevention efforts to reduce the lifetime risk, severity, and 30-day mortality following stroke,” the authors conclude (1).

In regards to heart attacks, 1.25 million people in the United States have an acute myocardial infract (AMI) yearly with 450,000 of those being recurrences (2).

Clearly if we ate better, and exercised more these numbers can be improved. Our sedentary lifestyles and poor food choices are at the foundation of many illnesses.

I always heard that the less healthy die off in their 50’s and 60’s, thus the possiblity increases if you make it to your 70’s, of living into your 90’s. I wonder how many of the people you are talking about might have had strokes or heart attacks in earlier times, but are now surviving, although in a more disabled condiition? What do you think?
