Yep. And to add to your post, work at a job you love. Have a puppy dog or two. Walk. Sleep. Eat some oranges. Learn to cook with curry.
the most recent research in medicine fascinates me - parasites and probiotics are the future.
I have horrid hayfever so I got a probiotic all the way from New Zealand that the literature claims reduces it almost completely. And it seemed to be much better this last fall. I know, self-reporting, but the literature supports my experience. IGE levels dropping like flies with this probiotic convinced me.

Indeed, they found that mice treated with a drug that targeted S1P1 survived the flu without showing signs of massive cytokine production and inflammation.”
