If they could promise me immortality, they might have an argument. However, creating policies that allow me to live a few days longer at the expense of the enjoyment, leave me alone.
Agreed! Too many nancies out there who want everyone eating bugs and vegetables and nothing else. I’m a sugar freak, and decided a long time ago that no, I am not going to stop eating it just to live another year or so in a nursing home after having forgone the pleasures of food through strict diet. Sure, I might feel a bit better without it, but at ehat expense? Eating stuff I don’t like? Avod8ng food I do like? No thanks- I’ll take a slightly less healthy life while enjoying what I like in the process.
They say “oh but you will learn to love eating healthy after awhile” No, no I won’t! Been there done that- getting back to carnivor and sugar and some junk food was a major relief after years of not enjoying my meals of vegetables and no sugar! So, I die 6 months early, or a year or so, and don’t feel as “optimal as I could”- big deal, my psyche is much better for it in the years I do have!
