What's the most important ingredient to healthy aging? Ask Karen Kansler, RN, MedStar Good Samaritan Hospital's community outreach nurse and arthritis navigator, and she'll tell you, "A willingness to learn and approach things from a new perspective - to see the brighter, funnier side of things - all these have positive health benefits," she says. "There are literally thousands of wonderful books, magazines, online publications - you name it - that offer great advice about living longer and feeling good."
