[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have realized that there is something to be said for “health nuts” - they look good, feel good, and don’t age as much. I want to hear from the health nut out there what their advice is. What is your biggest piece of advice on getting healthy and making yourself feel good? Diet, supplements, exercise, meditation, acupuncture, etc? [/quote]

Whether I look good I will leave to the judgment of others  :D

I am indeed a health nut though. My advice is plant-exclusive diet. And I mean plant-based WHOLE foods - beans, sweet potatoes, green vegetables, oatmeal, black/brown rice, etc. Not processed and/or plant junk food like plant-based "meat." [/quote]

Do you find that you have enough protein in your diet? I honestly think we are an over protein population, but as I get older, I do worry about losing weight if I don’t have adequate protein. I am a mid 40s woman for what it’s worth.[/quote]

I’m a late 40s man and I wrote the previous post. In my view you can get all the protein you need from plant foods. Beans, nuts, peanut/almond butter, etc have tons of protein. Even foods we don’t think of as protein heavyweights like sweet potatoes have some protein. In truth there is protein in many things we eat. I have found plant foods to be plenty of protein for me.

I know there are those on this board who will stridently disagree, I am just sharing what works for me.
