Also, go easy on the alcohol. The next best thing for lifelong good health is exercise. Best of all is 30-40 minutes most days of the week. Include weight or resistance training for 15 minutes two or three times a week. Heavy running alone will give muscular legs and thighs, but the upper body may look almost wasted.
Exercise promotes strength, flexibility, and endurance-staving off feebleness in old age.
Get regular exams and screening tests from your own physician. A multivitamin a day, plus 250 milligrams of vitamin C, seems reasonable. The new daily recommendation for vitamin C has been raised from 60 to 120 milligrams. Some physicians recommend adding vitamin E and selenium. Don't plan to retire completely.
