I thought I would share this article with the RP community!
Do you agree with his Health Care Crisis and Environmental Crisis?
How important is it to eat well, move more, stress less, and love more? Does this affect our active duty service members as well as all our veterans?

Well eat well, move more, stress less, and love more are reasonable goals.
I have been on cardiac, arterial health, nerve, gastrointestinal, and other medicines for 20 years in most cases. After mitral valve repair and the other serious surgeries I have been through, I learned that getting up and moving even with multiple machines attached to me, helps the body to heal, lubricates joints, etc. Moving is certainly important.
Giving and receiving love is also an important factor. Human love and the affection of a pet can be very beneficial.
Faith is also very important. The God I have faith sustains me each and every day.
However the article contains some fallacies. While there is an increase in Type 2 diabetes in this country, pre-diabetic is similar to pre-pregnant. Diabetes is defined by a specific blood glucose level. Those with higher levels are diabetic while those with lover levels are not. the A1C test is a reasonable indicator for warning people with high results that they may be susceptible to diabetes.
The concern about carbon dioxide which is essential for plants to survive and thrive borders on insanity and the ludicrous. Plants take in carbon dioxide and generate oxygen. Like most animals livestock exhale carbon dioxide which supports the plants they eat, etc.

CW5 Charlie Poulton, thank you for sharing your testimony about exercise, eating without constraint, and your heart attack. I thank God that your son was with you and that you were close enough to a hospital to get treated so soon after your heart attack. I think you described what many of us did in terms of eating while in the military of the 1960's, 19870's and early 1980's when we were encouraged to eat, drink and smoke to our "hearts" content. I know it is by the grace of God that I am alive [my did had multiple heart attacks and a heart transplant in 1992, we shared naturally high triglycerides]. To some degree we are what we eat; but, most importantly as believers we are children of the Most High God who cares for us, knows the number of hairs on our head, and loves each of us.

All in all, I care about all of my fellow comrades and their health. I worry about a lot of y'all. LOL. That's just me. I am that way... Yeppers
Having said that tho, This article means that I have to step away from the Twinkies and find a boyfriend. LOL. I'll step away from the Twinkies. The Boyfriend thing, well, you'd have to be absolutely AMAZING... Loving the single life. Got my baby-girl. That is enough. COL Mikel J. Burroughs
