Yes, Jeff, I believe you are correct when you say that the leading cause of death is really not heart disease, stroke, heart attack and so on but these are the consequences of our own actions. The major diseases we see today in this country were virtually unheard of 100 years ago. Lifestyle must be the culprit. What else?

I sincerely believe that proper exercise, a good diet (cut down on processed foods), and taking the best nutritional supplements, fortify the body against things like disease and the common cold. Since I changed my habits after Dad died, I have not had a cold or sinus infection . An example of what I mean is this: Ask any cardiologist if they take Vitamin E, and they will all say "YES". (and they will also know which Vitamin E is better to take, as one emulsifies in water, while others do not and since our bodies are made of a large percentage of water, which one is BEST?) So, get informed and take action. I have heard it said that 33% is genetic (and I think that is too HIGH a value), 33% is what you ingest, and 33% is exercise. Some folks say that the leading causes of death are things like heart disease, storke and the like....but that is a LIE, the leading causes of death come from the consequences of our own actions. Heart disease comes from eating bad, (rare exceptions of course--sometimes a defect will do it) being lazy (not exercising), smoking (thats just plain ignorance---I SMOKED FOR 20 YEARS, finally quit! that was the toughest thing I ever forced myself to do....) Hope I didnt step on any body's toes.
