For Women, Aging Is Like a Horror Film | The Free Press
I find this movie review humorous – in the darkest way. Our only escape is not betting the farm on remaining young and socially significant. Invest in the future while you are young.

Rescue The Republic â Join The Resistance

Please tell anybody OVER-65 in your life: Why you MUST try to WALK a lot
I love this quote:
Walking is the best possible exercise. Habituate yourself to walk very far. The Europeans value themselves on having subdued the horse to the uses of man. But I doubt whether we have not lost more than we have gained by the use of this animal. No one has occasioned so much the degeneracy of the human body. An Indian goes on foot nearly as far in a day, for a long journey, as an enfeebled white does on his horse, and he will tire the best horses. There is no habit you will value so much as that of walking far without fatigue. I would advise you to take your exercise.

Recipe for Heart Health: A Randomized Crossover Trial on Cardiometabolic Effects of Extra Virgin Olive Oil Within a WholeâFood PlantâBased Vegan Diet | Journal of the American Heart Association
[ For video discussion on this July 2024 research CLICK HERE ]
Key Findings of the Study
Enhanced Cardiovascular Health Without Oil: Participants who followed an oil-free, whole food, plant-based diet experienced greater improvements in heart health markers compared to those who included EVOO in their diets.
Lower LDL Cholesterol Levels: The oil-free group showed a more significant reduction in LDL cholesterol (“bad” cholesterol), which is crucial for reducing the risk of heart disease.
Better Weight Management: Eliminating added oils led to more effective weight loss and maintenance, contributing to overall cardiovascular health.
Improved Blood Pressure Control: Participants avoiding oils had better blood pressure readings, further decreasing their risk of hypertension.
Reduced Inflammation: The absence of added oils correlated with lower levels of systemic inflammation, a key factor in many chronic diseases.
Why This Matters to Us
The findings align perfectly with the PLANTSTRONG philosophy that emphasizes consuming whole, unprocessed plant foods without added oils. While EVOO is often marketed as a healthful choice, this study suggests that even so-called “healthy” oils may not provide the cardiovascular benefits we aim for.
