Opinions expressed here are by the general population in The Villages. There are no controlled scientific studies being discussed here. I would rather talk to my physician and get his view on the best options for me. If many of the current, recommended life style choices and medications don't work why are Americans living longer? Back in the "healthy olden days" people died in their 40's 50's and 60's. The average person retired from IBM was expected to collect his pension for three years or so. Social Security recipients were expected to die in their late sixties or early seventies. Why are there so many men and women living into their eighties and nineties today? Pet theories by health enthusiasts have been around for years. I would rather put my faith in the professional medical field. Medicine is science, not philosophy.
