Both of us are in our 60s, and health is becoming more and more an issue in our lives. Someone once said "If I'd known I was going to live this long, I would have taken better care of myself when I was younger." We've reached that point. And so we're trying to turn the clock back a little and regain some of the strength and stamina we took for granted just a few years ago. And we're studying and doing research into how to improve our already deteriorating mental and physical conditions.

In doing the research, you run across all kind of things: some folk remedies, some plausible but strange suggestions, and some things that are just plain weird! Where does this fit in, for instance? Or the old folk remedy that an older man should eat about a half cup of pumpkin seeds a day to keep his prostate healthy? (I've been trying that for about a year now, and still have reached no conclusion.) Would you like a cure for hiccups?

Old age is a fact, and it's a fact that we both realize is before us... or maybe upon us. We can't go back and correct things, all we have is our future; so we're making changes now - in our diet and the amount of exercise we get - to hopefullly improve our future. We hope to use this section to document some of those changes. And to report on what we discover as we research and experiment.

For right now, though, this section remains:

Under Construction!
