The drums beat ceaselessly day after day. There are multitudes out there just waiting to help you improve your physical health while leaving your wallet or purse with a wasting disease. There is an antidote for much of this confusion and it is called knowledge. You are never to young or to healthy to start the process because the sooner you realize that you and you alone are ultimately responsible for your own health and assert some control the better off you will be.

Governments, institutions and religion have since time immemorial held sway over the masses by controlling the flow of information. Today we are suffering from a glut and the challenge is to be able to separate the genuine from the spammer. A side bar: free market capitalism is , I believe, the second best economic system ever devised. It does however carry with it serious challenges which I will address at some future date on another blog.

How much personal time are you willing to commit to this endeavor? Its never to late to start, assuming you still have breath in your body, but it will be more difficult if you are flat on your back. We are fortunate today to have caring professionals, TV, magazines, news letters and the internet. at our disposal. If we are going to be able to make informed decisions regarding our health we must avail ourselves of that which is available. Youth, as many of us have found out, is brief and the attendant health is all to soon replaced by a host of challenging issues.

It starts with a commitment. CHEERS and a glass of red wine as you contemplate your state of health and your role in the maintenance thereof. This is a call to arms. Did you see this one coming? your response will be appreciated. If you got this far, thanks, til next time.
