I take a lot of “supplements” too....because....I had a grandfather die in his sleep of a massive heart attack at age 51....and he was skinny.....then I read an article about a really old guy who took lots of supplements that helped him stay young...and figured...well...it won’t hurt , what’s the worst thing that could happen?! There are those that say you “excrete” too much....but, I bank on the fact that SOME Of those supplements are grabbed up by my cells and used.

Be careful . . . I had someone die at 51 of a heart attack also, and he took a lot of supplements, including megadoses of vitamin c. Turns out megadosing vitamin C can cause inflammation (inflammation within viens as a doctor explained it to me is a cause of heart attack).

So . . .

Moderation in all things, including supplements . . .

That said — I sprinkle ground flax seed on my veggies and salad — and really think I will start doing cod liver oil.

I want to die peacefully in my sleep like my grandfather, not screaming and crying like the passengers in his car.
