EC is a wonderful place for anyone to get help with issues, disorders, conditions, ailments and so on. In fact it is hands down better than any other site or medical doctor!
I would sooner use a site like this than go seek medical consultation with a white coat!
But, I have a few questions and I guess a statement...
First, Are people taking stock of their health and fitness? Or are people just looking to sites like this when they are ill?
I find as an Veteran, many of my ex and current soldiers 'let themselves go', then complain about things not related to service. They become overweight, then start having issues. They get lazy, sit around all day, and get issues. They eat garbage packaged food, fast food, then get issues.
Now of course people will say, as you age you get issues. Nah, I dont subscribe to that at all. Nowhere does it say you get issues just because your 50,60,70 or more. It doesn't have to be.
People need to take stock and take a good hard look at their life and tell themselves the truth.
Quick story from my life.
20 years service, many regions in the world. Been places and did things no one wants to do but a select few. We did them.
Our thanks, ptsd, depression, 6 fractured vertebrae, compressed and damaged left hip, perm nerve damage, headaches, episodes of fear and hate.
That was at 42, when I retired. They told me I would never walk without a cane, and most likely be in a wheelchair by 50. Lost my drivers license, spent 6 months in traction, meds and treatments for years.
Today perfect heath, 54 years old, no meds, 205 pounds of muscle, less than 10 percent bodyfat, can run 10k before left foot gets tingles, can squat over 400 pounds, hit the gym 6 days a week. No sign of anything else. Yearly check up on my back its almost completely healed. Bones healed, discs back in place, nerves good.
SO what I am getting at, is that no matter what crap comes down on you, and no matter how old you are, or what you think is 'normal' for your age, there is something you can do about it. If you eat right, exercise, take vitamins, and if religious-pray-you can overcome anything. Nothing is age related! Nothing can not be prevented. You don't need to get sick.
We need a massive worldwide push to get off meds, get away from the medical establishment, and start looking after ourselves BEFORE we get ill or sick.
Sorry all, I just needed to get it off my chest.
Best health for everyone!!
