I am just going to vent alittle. Or maybe alot.LOL
But do you ever just get tired of hearing these warnings about that is not go for you to eat. you shouldn't eat that. Watch how much of that you eat. For example red wine is good one week. And bad the next. Coffee is good for something. But then too much caffeine isn't go for ya. Eat tuna it's good for ya but you shouldn't eat to much because of the mercy.Sometimes I wonder how the older generation has lived as long as they have without the warning labels and the hazards of foods and drinks. I wished we could enjoy eating food without having to worry weather it is going to kill us in the end. Eat to much read meat and it could cause you to have heart failure. Eat to much pork and if you have hypentension it could cause it to go up. To many sweets on the lips goes right to the hips my grandmother use to say. Well, I think this has help me to get it out. Maybe you have heard of these things too about your favorite foods and you need to get it off of your chest.

Well the older generation did not have the pollution we do...
They also ate much fewer processed foods and virtually everything had to be fresh.

I agree. I think that the older generation having less processed foods overall in general made their diets healthier. Which is what I am trying to aim for now, whole foods, organic, lots of veggies and protein and healthy carbs. I lost 10lbs by giving up my 'low fat' tv dinners because they were full of processed junk and sodium, carbs....

It is ironic that 95% of the "healthy" or "lowfat" version of items turn out to be, in fact, just as bad or worse than the "normal" version.

    I have my maxed amount of epidural shots of my cervical DDD....(and no one cares about my lumbar DDD)..... I've done physical therapy, muscle relaxers, Amitriptyline, Nortryptiline, desipramine.....narcotics... So I decided to go to a spine specialist and they have me on Gabapentin. Its been two weeks and it did nothing for my lumbar ever... but it did seem to help my cervical and arm/hand pain...
