Three Critical Reasons Fifties Men Should Read Our Book
(followed by the REAL reasons)


     
  1. Heart Disease – the number one killer in America – begins to rear its ugly head.
  2. Joints, tendons, and ligaments start reaching the breaking point.
  3. Certain cancers first establish beachheads – many of them not generating symptoms or visible signs until years later when the chances of a cure are greatly diminished.

       Now

    The Top 10 REAL Reasons
    Men in Their 50s Should Start Paying Attention to Their Health

    10. You want to sit on the beach without people trying to roll you back into the ocean.

    9. You get winded when you use the TV remote.

    8. Most of the clothes in your closet don't fit anymore -- and you bought them only last month.

    7. Your waist size is approaching your height.

    6. The best "workout" you've had in five years is is placing first -- at the all-you-can-eat buffet.

    5. Your muscles are disappearing as fast as your hair.

    4. Your wife asked if your life insurance policy was paid up -- just after serving your favorite dish: deep fried cheese balls.

    3. Your co-workers threw you a 60th birthday party and said you didn't look a day over 59. The only problem -- you just turned 50.

    2. The attractive store clerk keeps giving you second looks -- to make sure you're still breathing.

    1. You don't want to miss the Rolling Stones's 80th Anniversary Tour.

     



It's no wonder the medical community has determined that 50 is the critical year to start having numerous periodic tests, exams, and screenings.
