Different studies have been conducted to prove how
helpful pool sports and liquor are in improving the heart health of seniors. A study
by a researcher in Denmark found that spending time around billiard tables and consuming beer at least four times a week can
actually improve a man’s quality of living in his golden years. Conclusion? Moderate
alcohol use (one to three drinks per day) does improve heart health,
circulation, and sociability – three areas seniors need to pay close attention
to.
Billiards beats card games
The perception of senior recreation in the last three
decades was limited to card games and watching television. These days, wherein
life expectancies get pushed forward due to medical advances, older folks do
more and live a lot longer. A team of researchers from the University of
Copenhagen’s Center for Healthy Aging observed elderly males aged 70 to 95 as
they socialized in bars and activity centers. The researchers saw how billiards
and pool are ideal games for this age group.
Take the fun home
Having a billiards table at home would not only be
convenient for the seniors, but would also give friends and relatives peace of
mind, knowing their loved ones are enjoying themselves safely at home rather
than in a place full of strangers. What’s more, billiard tables can be
customized by manufacturers to meet personal preferences, so the game amenities
needn’t be too expensive and adapt to the unique requirements of their players.
