It did indeed kill my grandfather, he might have made it to 96 if had eaten only shrubs.

I’m sorry that your health does not allow you to eat a normal diet, but that does not change what a normal diet is.

The only diet that has been scientifically proven to increase lifespan is a near starvation diet, but that isn’t the healthiest diet, nor one that many people would choose, even if assured of a 25% increase in lifespan.

Interesting how being healthy, living long, and enjoying life don’t coincide in diet. I think a normal omnivore diet provides the best balance of the three. All things in moderation (if you don’t have a medical condition that requires a special diet).

Thanks for considering my views on this topic, SampleMan. With many people it is a contentious subject. Keep well.
