As I’ve gotten older, I’ve just naturally lost interest in a lot of meat; and don’t like sweets as I used to, either. I crave vegetables, and eat a lot of cheese, eggs and yogurt...

But I enjoy seafood as much as ever.

I’m a carnivore. Beef, chicken, Turkey, fish, shrimp, crawfish, occasional pork.
I love veggies too.

I don’t like sweets like I used to. Just a butter cookie will do.

And LOTS of water.

I loooove water.💦

I guess I complied as a kid - hamburgers, hotdogs, fish sticks, the meatish stuff in Chef Boy Ar Dee ravioli, mystery meat at school...Sunday pot roast.

At 78 years of age I eat lots of MEAT as I have an artificial heart valve and take large doses of Warfarin. The Vitamin K in greens messes me up bad.

No thanks. I’m 77, and I’ll eat what I freaking want until the day I die.

As I have gotten older, meat has become harder to digest. I try to eat less of it, but a hamburger and fries is still my favorite meal, unfortunately.

All of this diet concern is mostly meant to keep a bunch of people employed and selling stuff. It produces some very expensive urine and excrement.

Use common sense in what and how much you eat and you will probably be all right. Indeed there are some folks that have health concerns and must be concerned about their diet but for most of us eat and drink away.

I personally have never worried about what and how much I eat and along the way I have consumed well over a ton of pork and a few barrels of alcohol. |

I am 89 years old and take NO prescription drugs. I still look after my wife of 68 years since she has some problems not related to diet. I wish they were! She is the one that fed me that dastardly tasty stuff...

I contend that the most important decision you make in life is whom you chose for grandparents. Genetics is far more important than a 70/30 hamburger! Unfortunately you can not buy them over the counter or by prescription...

Lock! Load! Shoot at will!

Less when you’re old because it could cause excess iron. But if you donate blood, that reduces stored iron and that lets you eat all the meat you want, and you won’t have excess iron.
