How Old Do You Think You Are?

Aging is An Attitude - How's Yours?
By Gene D. Millen

How we age is largely dependent upon our attitude and expectations. If we think and act young we will stay younger and enjoy life to a much greater extent.

Too many people, when they think of the elderly, conjure up images of being frail, sickly, mindless and sexless. WRONG! Examples of vigorous and vital people in their 70's, 80's and 90's abound.

A biblical proverb comes to mind. "As a man thinketh in his heart so is he." This principle is as true today as when it was penned more than 2,000 years ago. How we think has an enormous effect on what we become.

Lucille Thompson of Danville, Ill, an 88 year old, 4 foot 11 inch grandmother had begun to stoop and to feel the arthritis in her fingers. The exercises she was given at the local senior center didn't have any effect. So she signed up for a Tae Kwan Do class and after two years of practice earned a black belt, along with the nickname killer!

I've had the privilege of knowing dozens of older adults whose energy, enthusiasm and physical condition is the envy of their friends who are 20 years younger. Too often people think that they are getting old when all they need is more exercise and a more positive attitude.

It is estimated that 80% of the health problems of older people are preventable or postponable. They are usually the result of years of inactivity and poor nutritional choices. Research shows that inactivity will put us at greater risk for a heart attack than smoking a pack of cigarettes a day.

The good news is that we have a second chance to right the wrongs we have committed against our body. With the right exercise, a low carb eating program and heart vitamins you can regain the vigor, vitality and heart health that you thought were gone forever! It's never too late to start feelin' great!

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
The cardiologist looked up from the treadmill report and grimly stated, "You are a walking time bomb. You need to go to the hospital immediately." Two days later a heart surgeon sawed open Gene Millen's chest and stitched in bypasses to six clogged arteries.

"A six way heart bypass isn't a record" said Gene, "but it's not bad for a skinny 59 year old with normal cholesterol and blood pressure. The villains and heroes in the heart attack melodrama may surprise you as they have me."

Gene Millen reviews new research on heart attack risks that are more dangerous than high cholesterol... and how natural supplements and heart vitamins can send them packing! Check out The Heart Health website at http://www.heart-health-for-life.com
