Suicide means you killed yourself. Apparently you failed.I worked with a guy in the mid 80s, who was obese in his late 20s. He was a lawyer with a good income and successful career. He and I went to lunch often for about five years, until I left that job. He ALWAYS ordered a well done hamburger and fries for lunch....I mean every single time. He never exercised and drink too much. He had a beautiful wife and three kids. He died of a heart attack in his late 50s. He essentially killed himself.I have researched health issues for many years and today, the internet makes it easy. I have numerous books on the topic, subscriptions to newsletters and websites, and have read numerous white papers on various health issues. I do not consider myself an expert, but I am confident I know a great deal more than nearly all Americans, including most doctors.
I can't even get family members who are in poor health, to regularly take a good multivitamin. WTF is wrong with people? Are they just too lazy to spend time researching health? The internet makes it easy, yet many are still unwilling to spend the time even though they are ill.
Why are so many Americans totally dependent on their doctors, for their health? This is equivalent to selling your soul to the devil. Most doctors and physicians know NOTHING about diet, nutrition, and supplements. They poo-poo them usually.
Has anyone else experienced this?
Oh, totally.
Often the problem is when you're young, you feel invincible and you get injured, or you eat badly, it doesn't impact you noticeably.
When people get older, it does, but they'll blame something else.
Slow-motion suicide. Done it several times myself.
Yes…. but my point was that instead of doing something to kill yourself quickly, the burger and fries every day for lunch, not moving and drinking too much kills you slowly. AKA Slow Motion Suicide.
BTW…what multi-vitamin do you recommend? The literature I have read say to avoid the “kitchen sink” tablets.
Yes I stay away from vitamins made by subsidiaries of Big Pharma. It can be difficult to find good vitamin supplements. I never buy them in retail stores.
I take Bill Sardi's multi-vitamin.
Lifespan Nutrition
The doctors I follow recommend using supplements from the following providers...but best to do your own research.
