Mark,

Thank you for providing such helpful aging hacks. I didn’t realize that falls were the #1 cause of death for people over 65. Good stuff.

Thanks Mark for the tips. As my 50 birthday approaches, I’ve started to educate myself on healthy living especially since I grew up in an overweight household. I’ve never really paid too much attention until now…Much appreciated!

Hi Chris, It’s great that you have collected all these aging issues all on the same page – it’s great for us to do a “checklist” for ourselves to make sure we’re doing everything we can to keep healthy and youthful. A great resource for antiaging I found was the Okinawan diet, in the book “The Okinawan Way” which describes the diet and lifestyle of the Okinawans who have 80% less heart disease and 50% less cancer than the US population, and interestingly, their “antioxidant activity” of their bloodstreams were 5 times that of Americans. A good read for more antiaging “hacks”

About 2 years back my cousin’s daughter from New Orleans took a trip to Aruba. She’s a vegetarian so she ate only salads. She came back extremely ill. The Dr. told her it he believed she ate something toxic. She stayed ill a few weeks, also.

Crystal, that is too bad but understandable. MDA is definitely more of a lifestyle/wellness blog.

Speaking of diagnoses, the worst one I ever got was the time I got back from a summer in Costa Rica and was feeling really ill and fatigued for weeks. Just running at 70% and felt really “off”. The doctor put me through a battery of tests and a slew of questions and visits, nothing. Still I was sick. Finally, his scientific diagnosis, after weeks of me feeling like a poopmuffin, was this:

“You know, I really think it’s just some jungle thing.”

I kid you not. The best part was that he shrugged while saying it. Like, you know those JUNGLE things. I did a veggie/fruit detox and slept at Mom and Dad’s house for a few weeks and recovered. But who knows, I could have some weird mutant disease just lurking in my bloodstream!

Well thank you, mark, I’m sure you could tell them a thing or two. Telling me I can’t exercise again is like telling me I’m terminal. The truth is it’s a great site even if I don’t agree with the no-exercise rule. I gave them my opinion but that’s as far as I’m going. It’s not a very happy site like MDA because most people are very sick. I have recommended proloftin for some of those high cortisol, stress cases. A couple years ago, my last doctor told me I had a fascinating physiology. That was the whole diagnosis. Well I’m a little smarter now. It’ll be figured out this week.
