Healthy habits and long life

I strongly recommend all those who are turning 50 years old to read the 4/14/12 NY Times article about the life of Dr. Lester Breslow and his research on healthy habits and long life. Also on the same subject there is a wonderful book written by Dr. James Fries and Dr. Donald Vickery entitled "Take Care Of Yourself."

Both say the same thing that your lifestyle is your most important guarantee of lifelong vigor and that you can postpone most serious chronic diseases by making right choices.

Healthy aging was once thought to be a contradiction in terms well it's not and at 75 I'm the proof that it works. You are your own first line of defense against an unhealthy life style. Think about it!!

Keep it Simple, Consistent and Fun.

    It is really a great way to remain happy and healthy. Using our spare time playing ant indoor or outdoor sport not only make us feel fresh but also to make ourselves busy and fret free.

    Wealth from waste
