Age 65 or over is the Danger Zone!

Yesterday I was not at risk, but today, this young hippie just turned 65 and must beware. :shiftyeyes:

Your next move is denying anything extremely abnormal going on, if you even bother replying.

Figured out years back....just keeping amused while waiting to die...it's not negative it is what is happening. Our self importance wastes our energy to stay amused. This experience does end. Your not even one grain of sand on an infinite desert. That to me is a beautiful thought.
I don't need to do anything to feel worth. My mission is purely self assigned.

If you define your own mission it can change at will.

Maybe for you, but I don't want my life to have meaning. I am free. I do my shit cause I like it...not because of a higher purpose.My reward: the freedom from purpose.

If you have hypertension the risk intensifies. If one is using certain medications to reduce hypertension those also increase the COVID-19 risk. Obesity? Forgetaboutit. Diabetes? Up Shit Creek without a paddle. Especially low in Vitamin D-3 (an apparently consistent feature of COVID fatalities), make out your will.

That's the way it happens.
Being born is a death sentence.
Even without religion, culture & society, seek to sugar coat the simple truth.
Some say, the trick is to enjoy at least some of the ride, in spite of knowing this.
Others say; clinging & aversion is the problem & not impermanence, seems folks' milage varies.

.    That's why I continue on a plant based diet, got off the prescriptions drugs, get sun & take vitamin D. No need to throw up one's hands and pretend one has no choice. Not all doctors, are still the dummies they were in the 1950s.

All these Docs have free info on the web (youtube), and / or websites, and / or books.

(Thousands have benefited and had their lives saved, no need to take my word for it. There are thousands of studies and science papers readily available as well. Of course McDonalds & their like are still purveyors of the junk food that often leads to diabetes, and most don't want to make the effort to change; so it does take a real commitment to go against the herd, & not just knowledge.)

Esselstyn may have saved Bill Clinton's life but my triglycerides hit 300! I should've had blood drawn after 4 months. I stayed on that diet 16 month. Got healthier when I dropped the carbs and ate fat again both plant and animal. I still think a basically plant-based whole food diet is the way to go. My wife has gone back and forth from straight up vegan to eating NO vegetables just meat, eggs, cheese. Really pissing me off and causing disappointment in her. Most allopaths do not value preventative medicine in my experience.

.  Indeed everyone or every case is different, & most doctors know little or are simply wrong as regards nutrition and disease. I am most familiar with Joel Fuhrman, M.D. & Michael Greger, M.D. , who have both published massive amounts of referenced material. Michael Greger, M.D., is impressive as he sells no supplements and donates all profits to charity. They both have many free videos on youtube.
Beyond that, as we both already know, diet is only "part of the picture"  when it comes to a balanced life.
.  It seems both Joel Fuhrman, M.D. & Michael Greger, M.D, consider greens much more important than carbs, generally speaking.
.  It was not till I cut out coffee, refined oil (avocado & nuts supply what I need), sugar & sweeteners, refined grain, all dairy, & all salt except a little miso, & did a short fast that I got off the blood pressure medication. Neither vegetarian nor vegan diet did it on their own.
.  Now I am experimenting with adding sprouts. I do not expect to cheat death or overcome all the many problems that come with old age, just reduce some of the more unpleasant symptoms, that often accompany the aging process.
.  Simply generally feeling a bit better makes the experiment worth it for me.

Why not try heroin?, then if you do get sick, you won't care, and you can continue to eat all the crap you want, and stay young forever.
