Adults of the baby boomer generation (born between 1946 and 1964) are now beginning to reach their sixties. While you might hope that increased affluence and awareness of health issues might make then less subject to disability than the previous generation – the reverse is true, according to a new study. In the 1980s and 1990s, it looked as if people were indeed getting healthier. But researchers at the University of California now reveal real concerns over the health and disability trends among the baby boomers.
