Here is my own experience and advice about health and physical fitness, shared in hopes it will encourage and help people who are living unhealthy lives, because they have been misled by society. I'm typing this on a touch screen, which sucks (I'm more of a Model M kind of guy), so I'll make it brief.

I have always been active, always moving around, exploring the woods and climbing up and down hills, that sort of thing. I do sit in front of the computer a lot, but also get up and move around plenty, and do work outside on sunny days. (I live out in the country.) I'm not hesitant to walk or run a long distance, and in fact last year I walked about 10 miles to get a spare vehicle when the battery on my truck literally exploded at the post office. Was sore as hell on arrival, but did enjoy the scenery, plus the knowledge that I'm one tough mother fucker.

Physical activity is of major importance to staying healthy. Some people are always taking shortcuts, trying to do as little as possible. That road leads to death. Note: I DO NOT work out at the gym. That sort of thing can have its use, but working on the FARM (or similar type of work) is much better overall.

I used to drink soft drinks. I do not anymore, and it has been one of the best changes I ever made. The sugar is bad and will make you fat. The acidity destroys one's teeth. The caffeine intake, in quantity, is IMO unhealthy.

I eat a variety of pure and natural foods. Examples: whole milk, eggs, cheese, butter, wheat bread, bacon, homemade hamburger, homemade pizza, salad, baked potato, vegetables of all kinds, oatmeal, rice, beans, beef, chicken, fish. Yes, I add sugar and salt to flavor, and not to excess. I DO NOT eat processed junk like TV dinners, or load up on sweets or the substance euphemistically called "ice cream." I do eat these things on occasion, if called for, but not regularly.

I quit fast food restaurants like McDs, Burger King, Taco Bell. They're all garbage. The only "fast food" I eat these days is healthy stuff like authentic Mexican food from a family owned restaurant, or Chick-Fil-A, and in moderation because it's cheaper and better to eat home cooked meals at home.

I have a garden every year and am often eating fresh fruits and vegetables during the summer. I also can some things for winter, or make big batches of canned soup for eating over time.

I don't continually stuff myself with food. Some days I take a break and just drink milk, or water. I believe fasting is very important to long term health. The more I eat, the more active I am. The less active I am, the less I eat. Because I have muscle, and stay busy, and don't overeat, or eat JUNK, I don't get fat.

I drink a little (homemade) alcohol, but in moderation, and not daily. I also occasionally smoke homegrown tobacco, and frequently smoke home grown WEED.

I get a full night's rest, every night. This is of critical importance. I also refuse to work a stressful, shitty corporate job, preferring instead to be DIRT POOR rather than destroy my life, health, and sanity like that.

I don't take any medicine at all. I also don't ever get sick, period. The last time I ever got sick was over 25 years ago, when I was a boy.

90% of health advice from the mainstream is total bunk and is in fact purposely designed to KILL you. For example, veganism. Want to be a weak, unhealthy soyboy? Be a vegan.

I saw one guy on here commenting the other day about his vegan girlfriend who is in ill health, with serious problems including joints getting stiff and locking up, steadily going downhill. The idiot "doctors" had no advice other than "stop eating meat"--which is exactly the problem in the first place, but this guy didn't make the connection and was at his wit's end. Stay the hell away from these quacks!

Yes, I fully agree that the Western meat industry is horrible and evil, but the solution is to make friends with decent farmers and butchers who treat their animals humanely, not deprive yourself of vital nutrients.

In closing, let me share an anecdote with you I read the other day, which should help you understand humans and the world we live in a little better:

"Funny story: I have a friend who works for a social media influencer (with 1 million followers) who does health fitness. This person says she's vegan and does just yoga, pushing lots of powders, etc. She is in incredible shape and has a million women following her and wondering why they don't look like her, and they keep paying more to try. Well the big deception is she actually is keto/carnivore, and when doing her real workouts she is definitely not doing yoga.

She was elevated because she would push the agenda. The deception runs deep."
