LIFE BEGINS AT 70

It's long been said that money can't buy everything and most will agree if they are truly being honest throwing silliness aside. Money can't buy you true love. Money can't buy back your youth or bring back loved ones that have passed on. And additionally, money can't buy fitness no matter how much you shell out of your pocket. To make that point clear, all the money in the world cannot automatically create that perfect physique regardless of how much you are willing to pay. Sure money can pay for a private gym membership or even allow you to build your own gym in your backyard. Money will also allow you to hire a 24 hour a day personal trainer along with a chef to be at your beckoning call whenever you need a healthy meal prepared. Money can also pay for weight reduction surgeries or "tummy tucks" which can give the appearance of a reduction in weight. However even in this case the person is not fit, they just have less fat - complete...

Sex is healthy. Keep In mind, though, that “healthy” is one thing, “medicinal” is another. True, intercourse does have its direct health benefits. It is after all, exercise. It has an analgestic effect, reducing pain for several hours after the act, most encouragingly for sufferers of arthritis. And there is evidence that ejaculations (for men) on a steady regular basis make for a healthier prostate. But Sex, as far as anybody knows, doesn’t cure cancer. It won’t prevent heart disease. But sexual fulfillment is a player in the disease-fighting game, not because it cures anything directly but because it’s a morale-booster. Sex is a motivator and a powerful one, according to Aaron Vinik, M.D., Ph.D., director of research at the Diabetes Institute in Norfolk, Virginia. “The contact that sex provides keeps you functioning and involved,” Dr. Vinik says. “Sexually inactive people become what I call slothful—apathetic and inactive” Apathy and inactivity are invi...

  How do you feel when you purchase a brand new car? Great feeling isn’t it? Every part of the car is expected to work optimally. There is pleasure in every ride taken across the country or anywhere it is you wish to ride your new car to. All pipes, nuzzles, filters and components that make up the car engine functions efficiently. But how the car will fare in the next five years depends largely on the way the owner will use it. The factors involve include, but not limited to; will genuine oil always be used in the engine? Will only original fuel (of course we have adulterated fuel) be used?   Every manufactured product will always come with a user’s guide. The “lifespan” of the product will depend largely on the adherence or otherwise of the user to the user’s guide. Will the engine be serviced as frequently as demanded by the manufacturers? Will original spare parts be used always? Will little things such as checking oil level, fuel gauge, water level, etc....

Health and fitness are major concerns for most seniors, usually because they've spent decades ignoring those topics. If that includes YOU, at what age did you decide your fitness level wasn't a priority? Fortunately in most cases it's not too late - you can start taking back your health and fitness at any age!   From treadmills to exercise machines to free weight areas, more and more people over 60 are turning up regularly at gyms and working out regularly. Most marathons these days have athletes 60 and older joining them, and the half-marathons see even more seniors taking part. And golf courses, tennis courts and squash courts are often populated with seniors, both for their enjoyment and to help them get and stay fit.

T he Bible is not necessarily a medical textbook; nor does it serve as a behavioral constraint. Still, there are advantageous benefits from understanding the supernal view of health as expressed in the Bible. These are some of the Bible's recommendations for good health and longevity... "Meditate... day and night..." - Joshua 1:8 Most people are not raised to sit in solitude and mumble "mumbo jumbo." But meditation is making a comeback from the ages. "The relaxation response [from meditation] helps decrease metabolism, lowers blood pressure, and improves heart rate, breathing and brain waves," says cardiologist Herbert Benson, MD. Any condition that's caused or worsened by stress can be alleviated through meditation, he further adds.  No wonder when when Joshua was assigned the weighty task as overseer over the nation of ancient Israel which was no doubt stressful due to daunting task that lay ahead, he was advised to "me...
