Give thanks for your health. How many times have we heard this in our lives? It's the times when we are suffering ill health that we realize how fortunate we should be and will be when are in good physical health.
Humans today are fortunate to be living longer than ever thanks to advances in medicine. But we should make our years to be fuller and healthier to experience the best that life has to offer.
When it comes to a healthy life, there is much that we can do to improve our health and maintain good health. In this way we can experience less physical ailments along the glorious path of life.
Whether we are speaking about mens health, womens health, babies health or elder care, the healthy life is general and all-encompassing. From the moment we open our eyes in the morning until the moment we shut our eyes to sleep at night, we can make good health a constant way of life.
We can start the day with a healthy breakfast, add a healthy lunch and healthy dinner along the way, and make exercise a point of our daily lives as well. Take the stairs rather than the elevator. Take the stairs rather than the escalator as well. Walk a few blocks rather than drive when going on short runs.
Besides these simple, everyday things we can also get involved in a regular physical fitness regimen. In this way we can build our body's strength while adding muscle tone and mass and shedding pounds along the way. Increased metabolism, lower cholesterol and lower blood pressure are also direct benefits from regular exercise.
So when it comes to health and living the healthy life, there is much that we can proactively do.

Aging is a something programmed in the DNA of all living things for a reason, for the species to survive in the changing environment.
I have no doubt that some day human will find a way to re-program the DNA and take out the aging part.
That means natural death will be a choice for the money each individual has someday. We'll create another problem doesn't exists today.
Along with the advance in fertility technique, human population will explode.
April, I lost my spleen in a sledding accident when I was 13......that would make it...well, 30 years ago.
There is a pneumonia booster you must take every ten years, and it's good idea to get a flu shot.
I got a lot of infections during cold season at 1st but started taking echinacia (sp?) when getting sick so that never happens anymore.
The sucky part is the adhesion issue, but it's not bad...
E me if you want to talk about it.
The spleen is not a major organ, it's a link in your immune system but not a big part. Stores and filters red blood cells mostly I think.....
Hmh ... there's been some excellent Science Fiction ideas on the topic ... However ageing cannot be stopped ... all one can do is prolong the inevitable.
I know 100 year-olds who are bustling with energy... and I know 50 year-olds who are simply waiting for the Hearse... Ultimately there'll never be a pill for longevity ... But a method exists. Runi.
Manx cats should be able to live the normal cat life, just without a full tail. Here is a complete manual on the breed. 4 years is a short life, but the average outdoor cat life is about that, 4 years. Indoor cats live about 5 times that, to about 18 to 20 years. Indoors is simply safer, there are cars running about outside to run unsuspecting cats over, birds with flu dropping their bombs, ickkk. Spiders and snakes are usually found outside. And hostile preditors are not normally found indoors, (bad dogs outside, good dogs inside.)

I am truly sorry for your loss.
Being a hunter cat, the Manx, could have caught a parasite or poison from a spider, or snake bite. Depends on where you live. I live in the southwest US, and snakes, scorpions, and black widow spiders are out here.
I had that happen to me, though it is rare, it does happen but only to outdoor cats.
Included in the manual is the discussion of "Manx Syndrome", a myth perpetuated by a person studying the correlation of the shortness of the Manx tail and the predisposition to illness. Quite frankly, I find this not only ludicrous but offensive to think that a cat's tail length has anything to do with whether they will catch a cold.
In my opinion, there is no evidence to substantiate "Manx Syndrome."
No so much know.... per say. The information is "OUT there" for everyone to read, watch or listen too. Tons of advisors and professionals to guide you. That's a personal choice.
I
ts the application of that knowledge and "taking" responsibility of their own actions. That is the real....issue.
wait have they done a study on people who were once in say like america or europe, and relocated to Okinawa and have been there for say 30 years? it would be interesting to see the results; and it would open more facts about health. i know a friend of mine lived in japan for 1 year and lost 40lbs just on a japanese diet, and some of his health problems seemed to lessen.
excellent comment !!
wow. learned a lot. thanks
No often the reverse, for true Christians.
And J W's are not Christians. No one who denies Jesus is the Lord, can rightly call themselves Christians. To be a Christian is to be a follower of Christ. So if you don't follow Christ fully, you are not a Christian, no matter how much you claim so!
I love Jack Lalanne. He is so gracious in sharing his information with others.
It depends on the owner.But it is POSSIBLE.But a lot has to do with the care and knowledge of the owner.Those who have good long experience with animals are usually the ones who can take care of a pet without seeing a vet.BUT,the animal will most likely only live up to its AVERAGE life span but not its MAXIMUM life span,which are two very different things.
I will not write a long answer to you as I know it will bore you and I will be out of topic.Just to simply answer your question:YES,it is possible for an animal to live a good long and healthy life without any vet appointments.
cheers!
Don´t smoke, drink or do drugs, stay away from fatty, processed foods and eat healthily, do cardio and weightlifting 5 times a week, stay away from polluted cities, don´t stress out.
Thanks for the tip & for commenting, Runi.
Just enjoy your life & spread happiness that's the real meaning of life....!!!!!!!!!!
From only doing exercise in PE classes (and then only the least I could get away with) to doing exercise on a regular basis.
Great documentary
A case study would be Jack Lalanne.
He is a comination of good food+exercise.
And I agree, it's not just living longer but also living healthy. An occasional burger will not kill you, but personally eating a factory-made burger does not constitute my idea of 'enjoying life'.
That old lady is so amazing. I'm completely inspired.
"Is there a best thing? Oh I know, I get more attention."
It all depends on how many calories you consume. If you want to lose weight, you need a caloric deficit.
