    Age 67 - My plan to avoid Alzheimer's

    You are on the right track with diet and exercise. As far as diet, look into no grains, no vegetable oils (corn, canola, soybean, etc), high omega 3 fats including other high=quality fats, and an overall ketogenic diet. Unless you have excess iron in your body, red meat is not the boogeyman.

    Cholesterol and Heart Disease - what you've been led to believe is all wrong

    "If 104 people with no history of heart disease take statins, one person will benefit (not have a heart attack). Of 50 people taking statins, one will develop diabetes and 10% will experience muscle damage. " Statistics vary! Recent studies show NO BENEFIT for statins in primary prevention.

    High-Intensity-Intervals and Muscle Pulls

    Razztazz, I will ignore my sarcasm detector and say: if you are "all for" finding out how a proper diet affects you, try the Whole 30 program and report back. Best wishes... p.s. your estimation of the power of nutrition on health and well-being is vastly underestimated. I am not a fan of...

    High-Intensity-Intervals and Muscle Pulls

    Conversely, proper diet and exercise reduces the incidence of cancer, cardio-vascular disease, and diabetes; which should increase lifespans. Also, most of the things people attribute to the consequences of aging are caused by bad lifestyle choices. Make your choices and take your chances...
