I have more energy and more physical strength now at age 82 than I had stage 57 when I was forced to retire from a high paying life time job due to bad health. I am convinced the regular gym routine of treadmill and lifting weights is protecting me from diseases.
Nope I see zero need to check my blood. The body is amazingly sensitive. They told me diabetes is a silent disease. In my case, I felt tingling in toes when blood sugar was higher than 130. I was diagnosed border line diabetic in mid-50’s. One of the reasons I quit my job and began regular exercise. Now age 100 looks possible without prescriptions and pains.
It would not hurt to get it checked. There are a number of young athletes in peak health who have been victims of Sudden Adult Death. Take care of yourself and make sure you don’t become and unnecessary victim.
Good for you. I saw an article earlier today that said walking greatly extends life and improves health. I would imagine anything that makes you move will make you healthier.
Knock on wood!
