Longevity

Today I wrote an article about longevity. I don't want to live forever, I just want to be healthy and happy until I get to the end of my life. Eating a good diet increases my chances, but it doesn't mean I adhere to a strict diet. On the contrary, I think I push my dietary boundaries pretty far. Food is closely related to emotion and I, like many other people I know, am an emotional eater. When I get stressed I want simple carbs: sugar! or salt! Yogurt-covered pretzels get me through a lot of hard times. They are just sweet enough and just salty enough to satisfy my needs. They are not on the Mediterranean diet, I'm pretty sure. But they are on the I'm-stressed-and-hungry diet for sure.

Let's exercise. Amen.
