AN EXPERT SPEAKS ON HEALTH ISSUES

Q: I've heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life; is this true?

A: Your heart is only good for so many beats, and that's it.. don't waste them on exercise. Everything wears out eventually. Speeding up your heart will not make you live longer; that's like saying you can extend the life of your car by driving it faster. Want to live longer? Take a nap.


  • Q: Should I cut down on meat and eat more fruits and vegetables?

    A: You must grasp logistical efficiencies. What does a cow eat? Hay and corn. And what are these? Vegetables. So a steak is nothing more than an efficient mechanism of delivering vegetables to your system. Need grain? Eat chicken. Beef is also a good source of field grass (green leafy vegetable). And a pork chop can give you 100% of your recommended daily allowance of vegetable products.

    Q: Should I reduce my alcohol intake?
    A: No, not at all. Wine is made from fruit. Brandy is distilled wine, that means they take the water out of the fruity bit so you get even more of the goodness that way.Beer is also made out of grain. Bottoms up!
    Q: How can I calculate my body/fat ratio?
    A: Well, if you have a body and you have fat, your ratio is one to one. If you have two bodies, your ratio is two to one, etc.
    Q: What are some of the advantages of participating in a regular exercise program?

    A:
    Can't think of a single one, sorry. My philosophy is: No Pain...Good!
    Q: Aren't fried foods bad for you?
    A: YOU'RE NOT LISTENING!!! .... Foods are fried these days in vegetable oil. In fact, they're permeated in it. How could getting more ve getables be bad for you?
    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    Q: Will sit-ups help prevent me from getting a little soft around the
    middle?
    A: Definitely not! When you exercise a muscle, it gets bigger. You should only be doing sit-ups if you want a bigger stomach.
    Q: Is chocolate bad for me?
    A: Are you crazy?
    HELLO Cocoa beans! Another vegetable!!! It's the best feel-good food around!
    Q: Is swimming good for your figure?
    A: If swimming is good for your figure, explain whales to me.
    Q: Is getting in-shape important for my lifestyle?

    A: Hey! 'Round' is a shape! Well, I hope this has cleared up any misconceptions you may have had about food and diets.
    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    And remember: "Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Chardonnay in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming"WOO HOO, What a Ride" AND......

    For those of you who watch what you eat, here's the final word on nutrition and health It's a relief to know the truth after all those conflicting nutritional studies.
    1. The Japanese eat very little fat
    and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.
    2. The Mexicans eat a lot of fat
    and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.
    3. The Chinese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.
    4. The Italians drink a lot of red wine
    and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.
    5. The Germans drink a lot of beers and eat lots of sausages and fats and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans. CONCLUSION Eat and drink what you like.
    Speaking English is apparently what kills you.

  • Gentle thoughts for today.ersation is not only The older you get, the tougher it is to lose weight, because by then your body and your fat have gotten to be really good friends.

    The easiest way to find something lost around the house is to buy a replacement.

    He who hesitates is probably right.

    Did you ever notice: The Roman Numerals for forty (40) are " XL."

    If you think there is good in everybody, you haven't met everybody.


    If you can smile when things go wrong, you have someone in mind to blame.


    The sole purpose of a child's middle name is so he can tell when he's really in trouble.


    There's always a lot to be thankful for if you take time to look for it.
    For example I am sitting here thinking how nice it is that wrinkles don't hurt .

    Did you ever notice: When you put the 2 words "The" and "IRS" together it spells "Theirs?"

    Aging: Eventually you will reach a point when you
    stop lying about your age and start bragging about it.

    The older we get, the fewer things seem
    worth waiting in line for.

    Some people try to turn back their odometers.

    Not me, I want people to know "why" I look this way.
    I've traveled a long way and some of the
    roads weren't paved.

    When you are dissatisfied and would
    like to go back to youth,think of Algebra.

    You know you are getting old when everything
    either dries up or leaks.

    One of the many things no one tells you about aging
    is that it is such a nice change from being young.

    Ah, being young is beautiful,
    but being old is comfortable.


    First you forget names, then you forget faces.
    Then you forget to pull up your zipper.
    It's worse when you forget to pull it down.

    Long ago when men cursed and beat the ground
    with sticks, it was called witchcraft.
    Today, it's called golf.

    Lord, Keep your arm around my shoulder and your hand over my mouth...AMEN..!!
