Kate, good for you!! Your suggestions and statistics won't fall on deaf ears. They're sure to affect many followers.

Kate, good for you!! Your suggestions and statistics won't fall on deaf ears. They're sure to affect many followers. I'm sure you have made a good move toward your own healthy longevity, and will continue to influence many others. I might be living proof of your new approach to diet. One week from today I will turn 94. I've lived 26 years longer than my father and 11 years longer than my mother. I had been mostly vegan since the 1970s and a sometimes pescatarian (no shell fish, though) since then. I take a variety of supplements (never mind that most studies find they do no good. Researchers, by and large, are looking for the wrong benefits.) But I also I have a first cousin who just celebrated his 98th birthday who eats like most people do. While he's in much worse physical condition than I am, we both may share a longevity gene. BTW, I think Biden's SOTU speech was his best so far.
Now that's a heck of a recommendation for that sort of diet! I feel like you're rather like my partner's father, who's lived a similar lifestyle for ages and is in amazing shape....but then there's my partner's grandmother (father's mother) who was drinking sazeracs and chain-smoking and eating steak until the day she died....at 96. Those are some sturdy genes...and just makes you wonder how much longer she'd have lived with a little less meat!
