I am 65, a professional artist, married with two adult kids, was on medication for hypertension, but weaned myself off, though it can go up I am taking herbs and it is much better. I made the decision to stop taking it when my doc was about to add another pharmaceutical for thyroid. I have been vegetarian most of my life, but did eat a lot of dairy and eggs. As far as illness I have a heart murmur from rheumatic fever as a kid. I have some heart valve leakage. A heart doc said it may require surgery in the future. I am not buying into that, but I must lose weight. On the up side, since I gave up dairy all traces of arthritis are gone. I do eat avocados, coconut products, some soy, a bit of olive oil and love coffee. Mostly I eat brown rice, beans, potatoes, (I have been reading the articles on FB) veggies and not a lot of fruit and almost no processed foods. I am not exercising much because walking is my favorite, but it has been too cold here in northern AZ for that.
