If you depend on the doctor to tell you how to live your life you will fail.  Only you can make the changes needed to stay healthy.  What is healthy?  Well most think healthy is the absence of disease. I say healthy means much more.  Just imagine feeling good all day long.  Wanting to go for that walk.  Being pain free.  Those are the health issues that effect the quality of life.  I want to just be pain free so I can enjoy the simple things like walking through a forest or climbing a hill without losing my breath. I guess that as we get older these thing may be harder to achieve but should we stop trying? Firoz Patel on Twitter can tell you how to be healthier.
