Aging is something I think most of us don’t like to dwell upon. If we could we probably all would choose to stay a younger more vibrant version of ourselves. What age would you choose, when do you feel you were your best? I would probably choose 30 myself, still looking and feeling good, but savvy enough to root out the B.S. Frankly we should embrace our advancing age it is both a testament and a gift of a life well lived.
There are 3 numbers we must all be concerned about as we age. The numbers I am referring to can lead to heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. These numbers are blood glucose level, blood pressure, and cholesterol. The chance of occurrence goes up as we age and those numbers are growing. Take diabetes for instance, it was once referred to as adult onset diabetes because in was only seen in middle aged adults, but no longer; it is now one of the fastest growing preventable diseases among children. Fortunately, what works to get one of these numbers in order also has a positive effect on the other two.
