I used to follow the latest medical articles, developments, was into supplements, diets, new drugs, etc.
Then I realized most of it was bullsheet designed to garner the almighty dollar in different ways. My grandfather, now 92, never went for any of this. He only believed in going to the doctor when very ill. He ate well, lived a clean life, and thats it.
He made me realize that we are obsessed with our bodies and our health. I now follow my grandfather's example.

I like your grandfathers advice, and our family lives by the same rules. When we went to buy a treadmill the guy working at the store (really old man) told us not to waste our money and simple eat a little less and take walks around the neighborhood. We took his advice and lost a total of 75 lbs. btwn both of us ( in 4 monthes) All these "special" diets seem to another reason for people to sheeple. IMHO.
