Right. What is good for you today will kill you tomorrow, according to "science". I could list a dozen things the experts said will kill you and then said they're good for you, and then said bad.
Here's my lifestyle:
Bad part: I drink a pint of rum a day and have drinked most of my life; I smoke a half a pack of cigs a day - on and off; I get major stressed at what's happening to my Country; sometimes fight with the wife.
Good part: I don't eat much and then it's chicken salad with cheese on Triscuit crackers (good for regularity); take multi-vitamins with minerals; take Milk Thistle for the liver (prescribed in Europe for such); walk at least 20 minutes at a fast pace 3 times weekly; rarely have fast food with the exception of a burger now and then; play my drums; enjoy my wife and doggie; get yearly comprehensive blood panels; get Testosterone shot every 2 weeks; and take life and assholes with a large grain of salt. F'em if they can't take a joke.
Both my parents died in their mid-60's, I'm 72 and feeling great. I still have that morning thing and desire my wife. T-shots are the probably the biggest contributor to my energy. Do some research on how quickly it decreases and why so many middle-age men die. If you can afford it, do it.
My biggest vice is smoking cigars.
