If your blood work shows all parameters in the normal range without meds* and you're not overweight and feel great, fine.

But in seeing pics & videos of some of the residents that isn't the case weight wise ( please don't take that comment the wrong way)

There's just tooooo much evidence that proves dietary choices can allow you to live a longer active life, is it a 100% guarantee, no of course not.

But why decrease your chances.

Try it for a month there is no way you will not not feel the difference.

*meds for things that can be corrected with diet only
Just to clarify. VillagesPl has told us that he is 71, lives alone and doesn't watch TV, he hasn't mentioned if he drinks alcohol.

Jimbo, you have shared that you do drink alcohol and you have TV. How old are you?

I am 72. I know, I look like I am 16, but heck some of us have good genes. . I don't drink or smoke. I am mildly addicted to Publix Premium Rum Raisin ice cream.
