Recognizing the trend, AARP (American Association of Retired Persons) now offers a "Health and Wellness" cruise, which sold out almost immediately after it launched the offering to its 35 million members.

C. J. Buck, MIA of Xenna® Corporation (www.xenna.com), a distributor of natural foot, skin and hair products, says, " Anti-aging strategies are proving to be an irresistible lure to those in the 50-plus age group, who use vacation time to take fitness and stress reduction classes, practice yoga or learn low-fat cooking techniques."

Xenna distributes NonyX® Nail Gel and CalleX® Ointment, which were developed and patented using formulations that focus on exfoliation. The result is innovative, natural foot care products that address the cosmetic appearance of unattractive feet and nails.

A boomer herself, Buck says, "As part of an overall anti-aging regimen, proper foot care is essential both for maintaining a fitness routine and for psychological reasons. As we age, there's a much greater tendency to develop yellow, discolored toenails or rough, cracked heels. Many people are so embarrassed by the appearance of their feet that they avoid social situations which would expose their bare feet. This is especially true in summer or on vacations, when people typically like to spend time at the beach or pool."

Xenna's patented, diabetic-friendly NonyX Nail Gel, takes a unique, natural approach to the problem of yellow, discolored toenails.

NonyX is a topical, easy-to-use gel that breaks down and removes keratin debris - the discolored, yellow or thick granular buildup under nails that causes them to become discolored and unattractive.

NonyX Gel softens keratin debris using natural ethanoic acid, which permits it to be gradually scraped out with a manicure tool, beginning after about four weeks. Once the white or yellow keratin debris is removed, nails look clear and regular use of the gel keeps them keratin debris free and attractive.

For feet that are dry and flaking, especially the heel area, Xenna has developed diabetic-friendly CalleX® Ointment with natural exfoliating enzymes in a moisturizing base. CalleX has been shown in consumer studies to significantly reduce dry, flaking skin and cracking on soles and heels within 15 to 30 days. Acid-free and lanolin-free, CalleX smoothes dry, rough or flaky skin, and exfoliates and thins thick, hardenened areas, while leaving normal skin unaffected. It has a pleasant peppermint scent.

Podiatrist Jack Morgan of Monterey Park, California, deals with patients whose self-confidence has been affected by unattractive feet. He says, "Exposing feet in open-toed shoes or sandals results in more emotional, psychological fear regarding the appearance of toenails. Whether young or old, even with a pedicure, yellow or discolored toenails and rough, cracked heels are not socially or emotionally acceptable." Dr. Morgan is one of many podiatrists around the country who recommend Xenna's natural, diabetic-friendly foot care products.
