New physician wellness report shows generational divide in how docs stay fit

new report that looked at generational differences in the lifestyle and wellness of physicians finds that boomers (born between 1946-1964) tended to focus more on their health than younger generations. Here’s more: 
  • Time for personal health: 37% of boomers say they mostly have sufficient time to spend on personal health and wellness. In contrast, 30% of millennials (born 1981-1996) said the same, as did 28% of Gen Xers (born 1965-1980). 
  • Exercise: 25% of boomer physicians report exercising four to five times a week, compared to 23% of Gen Xers and 20% of millennials. Boomers were least likely to say they never exercise. 
  • Diet: Half of the more than 15,000 physicians surveyed say they were trying to lose weight. Boomers were most likely to report consuming three or more alcoholic drinks per week.
