I simply can not over-state how much daily aerobic exercise has benefitted me health wise. In my early 60’s my exercise was playing golf, 5 times a week 18 holes, pushing my golf cart. That was 30 miles of walking every week! Every one of my health issues disappeared one by one, without any medicines. Heart issues, blood pressure issues, blood glucose issues, joint pains, panic attacks, you name it, I had them in my mid-50’s. It was mind boggling how playing golf can cure all of that. I quit golf at age 75 due to move to FLorida, but kept on my daily routine of walks. Now at age 86, it is 27 minutes daily walk on a treadmill with 1 lb weights on each wrist. Anyone can start that routine even after reaching retirement age. 25 min/mile speed is not hard on the body.

Everything you said is golden.

Thank you for bringing it out. We can have incredible results by addressing root causes we don't even understand. Give a healthier step a try! You may find out you can get back some youth you never thought you could.

You are an example, sir. I am really glad you have done and do this, still.

My wife has said that she, too, feels better than she has, in years, with some chronic issues also going away.

It really is as simple as eating better, getting some exercise, and destressing, where possible. Our bodies were meant to be better and they can be very resilient, even though we become older.
