Some people, including JIM FIX, the author of the 1977 best selling book, "THE COMPLETE BOOK OF RUNNING", who although apparently attempting to do everything right, died on July 20, 1984, at age 51.

The key phrase is:
attempting to do everything right Attempting to do everything right doesn't mean that he did everything right.

Someone on this forum totally misunderstood everything I said about genetics and our D.N.A. being an important element in our life span, irregardless of what we eat or don't eat......based on personal histories of people I have known in my lifetime.........including those like JIM FIX who exercised & no doubt also ate "well" but still died young.

The key phrase here is:
no doubt also ate well That's an assumption on your part. People often make wrong assumptions about the diets of healthy looking athletes. My best friend is an athlete who claims to practice moderation and eats a lot of processed foods.

Life is indeed short.........so why become a "nervous nellie" over every item of food that others choose to consume. All of our days are numbered.

Life will indeed be short for those whose lifestyle lacks a sense of direction other than following a philosophy of "moderation".
All of our days are numbered? Seems like I got it right when I said: Faith-based predetermination. It's all based on anecdotes, assumptions and faith, and nothing of genuine substance.
