[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Over 50 is when differences in genetics and lifestyles really begin to show. Also, not everyone has time to work out 6 days/week. Maybe you could put more time and effort into being a kinder, more generous person.[/quote]

OP here. I work a full time job, which means I get up at 4:30 to work out M-F. I’m sad that my friends DGAF about their health. I don’t understand why people don’t prioritize their health. I don’t want to be in a nursing home and decrepit. They’re on that path. If you cannot handle stairs in a house in your mid50s, you are looking at a sad life in your 60s and 70s! Why aren’t there alarms going off for them??[/quote]

You haven’t gained much wisdom if you think you can control the effects of aging. Genetics trump lifestyle.[/quote]

Sorry, but this has been debunked. Lifestyle can offset genetics: https://www.theguardian.com/science/2024/apr/30/healthy-lifestyle-may-offset-genetics-by-60-and-add-five-years-to-life-study-says[/quote]

I don't think so. Otherwise my mother would have been a lot healthier than my Dad, who never excised, ate junk and now at 92 is still mobile, smart with no joint pain and no cardiovascular issue.[/quote]
