justanoldmuso,

Here are a few thoughts.

1. Dump the traditional English breakfast, that may have been appropriate in a bygone era but we're so much smarter today. My breakfast is 4 scoops of old fashioned oatmeal, 2 scoops of Grapenuts, 2 scoops walnuts and AllBran as required, drenched with dark chocolate almond milk and microwaved. Then an apple, peanutbutter and green tea.

2. Totally avoid the soda pop, instead replace with plain water.

3. When inflamation comes knocking at your door, try ginger root; comes in capsule and tea form.

4. Keep moving. We are designed to move. My 14 year old treadmill just died so I'll be buying a new one soon. Before it died, I'd be on in nearly 365 days/year. In my opinion much better than a gym membership and I can use it day/night in any weather, and is Covid-free. If you can't run, jog. Can't jog? Walk. This has been one of my better investments in life.

5. Avoid obesity at all costs, eat your fruits/vegs and minimize the time you sit. My wife bought us one of those adjustable desks so we can now stand when doing anything on the computer; we love it.

6. Listen to what your body is singing to you and have your Dr. nip issues in the bud before they expand.

7. Get enough quality sleep.

Note: I'm always open to learning, so if someone sees how any of this can be improved, do tell. . . . happy health to all smile

For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.
