&lt;p&gt;LIVING kills you.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I love these charts and such.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;No matter what we do, the end result is the same, death.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So, I choose to try and educate myself, be as healthy as I can and encourage my friends/family to do the same. &amp;nbsp;They don't.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After watching my mother's slow and painful descent (at 60) into death, with the &amp;quot;experts&amp;quot; doing nothing but pushing her faster, I decided. &amp;nbsp;I will be as healthy as I can afford to be and pray I have the strength to check out on my accord.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If the government allows me the choice. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;But all is not lost, I don't have much faith in chemo so I am healing myself with hemp oil, and I mean the real stuff - THC, and it's working. &amp;nbsp;Yesterday the cancer doc smiled and said to keep doing what I'm doing, he couldn't detect any tumours and he said I look great. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I suggest to everyone not to put too much faith in the medical machine, it will eat you alive!&lt;/p&gt;

The knowledge to live an optimal life span has been well known for a century or more.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Degenerative disease is not disease of aging. One of the biggest holes in &amp;quot;wholistic&amp;quot; healthcare is failing to know that lifetime chiropractic care is the only effective way to slow or stop the onset of Degenerative Osteo Arthritis. That will ruin your &amp;quot;sunset&amp;quot; years.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Number one; Good nutrition, we have more knowledge, opportunity and mass deception than at any time in history.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;#2 Exercise, lifestyle activity. I think modern body building (read Weidger's principles) have done more to bring all athletics into the 21st century than any other single factor&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;#3 your choice of Primary Care Physician. Pick an M.D. and get a doctor trained in drugs, surgery and (almost) nothing else. Choose your number one Doc from a wholistic profession, Chiropractic, Naturopathic (OK, Osteopath; give Doc Mercola a tip of the hat)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We are at a point in history when; In order to be Healthy you must 1) be intelligent 2) educate yourself 3) make choices 4) exercise the discipline to follow through.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;70 % of the people will always follow. 10% will always do their own thinking and choosing. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Be a &amp;quot;Ten Percenter&amp;quot;.&lt;/p&gt;

Main thing for me would be to keep my sanity and being able to move around without too much difficulty. the problem these days though is that once you have hit the 50 the younger generation, authorities etc are already 'writing you off'.&lt;/p&gt;

I think genetics ( ya, call it vaccine jabs) has a lot to do with what comes on your in life, that plus MSG, Aspartame, processed foods, blah, blah, blah.&amp;nbsp; One needs to eat healthy, not eat sugar, do NOT eat out under any circumstances, cook from scratch and eat as much whole foods as they can.&amp;nbsp; And if you eat McDonalds crap, you might as well smoke.&amp;nbsp; : - )&lt;br /&gt;As for women dying from cervical cancer, there's really no need for this to be happening either, being that CC is a slow growing cancer in most cases. I had a friend who had it twice. They told her if she wanted to have kids, get pregnant and have a baby, then they would deal with the CC.&amp;nbsp; No need for it also, if women get yearly check ups and there again, do as much as they can to avoid all the toxic waste in our world today.&amp;nbsp; We can never avoid it all of course, but just gotta do what you gotta do. All these diseases are brought on by MAN and MAN alone, the greedy guys out there, pushing all the drugs and vaccines and socking our foods full of chemicals. Cook from scratch and buy organic as much as you can.&amp;nbsp; : - )&lt;br /&gt;Sue&lt;img src="http://articles.mercola.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=72296" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: Will It Kill You?

The problem is how well you are, when alive.
