What are the best companies that specialize in health products, drugs and services that we can invest in?

Are there companies out there which will actually excel and make money in the future?

Several health stock analysts have supplied their lists.

Granted, we are not giving investment advice, but we think their answers are interesting.

Among some of the favorites are Johnson & Johnson, Medtronic Inc and Boston Scientific.

How these companies were chosen is interesting because one the biggest across the board reasons was because the senior population is increasing and these companies are understanding the needs of an aging population.

More seniors mean more needs and more challenges. 

Money will also be tighter in the future and health providers are going to have to provide services, products, drugs, etc at lower prices.  These companies also recognize that fact, according  to the analysts.
