LOL! Once again the lamestream Pony Express media stumbles onto the worst kept secret known for the last 20 years.
Americans could easily live a longer, healthier lives if they ate the right foods and got off their couch potato asses.
In addition, don't smoke and don't put anything into your body that the good lord didn't put here on this earth to begin with and you'll be fine.
Processed, hydrogenated foods kill.

Among women, following the same recipe after age 50 could tack on almost 5 extra years of life, the authors report in the British Medical Journal. Ping

Just think of those dietary prohibitions; and then, 'forget about it!'. . .
Life is REALLY good. . .and we can be so excited. to think. . .that 'good' can begin with a box of chocolates. . .(works for me)

Boy, are you going to be miffed when the Doctor tells you that you are dying of nothing.
Time for another box of almonds in wine surrounded with a layer of garlic flavored dark chocolate. Smokeless, of course.

hafta try that one!
Seriously tho, I had a heart attack 7 years ago. Resulted in CHF (Congestive Heart Failure - condition gets worse over time - progressive, etc. - struggled with edema, weakness - couldn't "do" stairs, walks, work, get out of tub, etc.
Stopped taking all prescription drugs (I'm not recommending for anyone else - do your own research ;o)) but the one specifically for heart - no statins (was originally prescribed Baycol. Didn't like the research on it - didn't take it. It later got pulled off the market!
Was taking Vioxx for pain/inflammation associated with my Osteoporosis - and we know what happened to Vioxx! (Now they're finding serious problem with Celebrex...and so it goes.)
Bottom line: I've been researching/writing about herbal medicine, supplements, medicinal values of foods, etc, for decades. And so I have been writing about and using the foods listed in this article. THEY WORK. (And they're a heck of a lot cheaper!)
I am now able to take good walks, do stairs with no hugging/puffing, no more problems with edema, no problem getting out of tub - etc etc etc.

Fish four times a week? What about the mercury?It depends greatly on the type and source of the fish. For example, a premium fresh tuna steak will generally have much more mercury than cheap canned chunk light tuna. Domestic farmed catfish will have lower levels than some expensive wild fish.
