Millennial­s even less healthy

Re Boomers not as healthy as they think, Opinion

June 24 I have read Carol Goar’s article and I have to say that the research of Elizabeth Badley regarding the health of boomers is right on spot. This is a time bomb that will soon reveal its full scale.

However, there is an even greater danger coming up for us and it will come from the millennial­s.

I work with the millennial generation and I have to say that obesity is so prevalent at that young age that chronic diseases will start even earlier for them than the boomers.

That is when the real problems for our health-care system will start. Rosie Jordan, Mississaug­a
