Press Release Summary: Tips from Homer Glen expert Stephen Hoxworth on Staying
Mentally Fit Years Longer



Press Release Body: Homer Glen, Illinois , February 7 - \"A failing mind, not body,
is the biggest reason people need long term care today,\" says Stephen Hoxworth,
Homer Glen-based Partner of LTC Financial Partners, the nation\'s most experienced
long term care insurance agency. \"That shouldn\'t be, so we\'re going to give our
clients information to help stay mentally fit.\" To that end, the company is offering
a free guidebook and web links to helpful resources.

The guidebook is \"Dignity for Life: Facts That Can Protect Your Assets & Quality of
Life.\" It states that Alzheimer's Disease and other forms of dementia account for
over 30% of long term care claim dollars, significantly higher than for circulatory
disease, Parkinson's, stroke, or broken bones due to osteoporosis. The book
recommends simple screenings that can detect dementia at its earliest and most
treatable stages. \"Dignity for Life sells for $8.95 on Amazon.com, but we\'re giving
it away free,\" says Hoxworth.

The web links refer people to easy, sensible measures for keeping one\'s memory and
reason intact years longer. These measures fall into three categories:

Brain fitness exercise. There are links to programs that hone one\'s perception,
memory, and concentration. \"For brain as well as muscle, you need to use it or lose
it,\" says Hoxworth.
Nutrition. There are links to lists of what to eat and drink to promote brain
health. Some of the tips are as simple as drinking enough water to irrigate brain
cells properly.
Aerobic exercise. There are links to recreation and exercise options that all have a
common aim: sending plenty of oxygen to brain cells.
