Staying Healthy into your 70s and Beyond

A friend of ours asked me about doing a blog about health, in general. Maybe some of you know, but I have been an advocate of low carbohydrate, clean eating for many years. This blog will include information I have found on exercise, food, vitamins, etc. My first suggestion is to look at your own habits - are they making you feel good, or do you feel like crap? Do you need to lose some weight? How much sugary foods do you eat in a day? (Be sure to click on all the blue highlighted links for more info.)

The Truth About Cholesterol & Statins

The easiest way I found to share the information I have found on cholesterol and statins was to make this Blog post and share it. I found a lot of the information from reading the book Cholesterol Clarity by Jimmy Moore, and this post is from that book. I would highly recommend you purchase this book and read it for yourself. I have put in links to some of the tests and information, so be sure to click on the highlights. There are also many articles from other sources on the hazards of taking statins, so be sure to read the whole blog. (Be sure to click on all the blue highlighted links for more info.)

My Exercise Routine

I have been trying to get back into an exercise routine, but if I have videos they are much easier to understand. I start out my day with a 2 mile walk with Lucy; half way through I do 35 pushups on a picnic table seat. Oh, and also while walking I do my face exercises (shared below). Then back to the trailer to finish.

Our Travels for 2026

January 1, 2026. Started off the New Year the same way I always start my mornings – Lucy and I were out the door early and did our 2 mile walk on the golf course. The rest of the day was spent getting things packed for our trip to Florida. 

January 6, 2021 ~~ What Really Happened?

I am glad that the facts are now coming out about what really happened on January 6, 2021. The Democrats have been lying to the American People long enough -- they need to be held accountable and brought to justice.

Can You Raise Testosterone Naturally?

Testosterone is what keeps men alive. But in the last 50 years, levels have dropped by 30-50%… It's not just age that reduces testosterone in men, but also what they eat and drink. Normal testosterone levels for men over 61 are 150-600 ng/dL. Dr. Ken Berry says that T levels should be around 700-800-900 to be optimum. How does a man raise his testosterone? It can be done without drugs because the drug (TRT) that helps raise testosterone stops the body's ability to produce testosterone on its own. However, if your testosterone has not returned after two years, should you consider TRT? 

How Important is Your Thyroid?

I am going to start a blog post on my thyroid issue and my desire to get off of my medication and get my thyroid back to functioning normally. I have been trying to change my diet to get rid of the foods that hinder its production, and I just now found a person on Twitter who did heal her hypothyroidism. She ate a carnivore diet, but then I read on other websites that the thyroid needs some carbs to function properly. Epoch Times just published an article on Hashimoto's Thyroiditis. This condition involves the immune system attacking the thyroid gland which now affects at least 14 million Americans and up to 7.5 percent of people globally. I have been diagnosed with Hashimoto's. Let's dive in. (Be sure to click on all the blue highlighted links for more info.)
