  1. You don’t talk about exercise as a longevity enhancer. I’m 86 and I lift 20 lbs weights 3 times per week, do yoga 6 days per week, and walk at least 1-1/2 miles every day. I’ve been doing these exercises since I was 30. My doctor marvels at my blood pressure, I have no chronic diseases, take only 2 meds per day and am free of pain, except for occasional, mild, lower back pain. I’m grateful I do all these exercises because they sure beat surgery for knee or hip replacement and wlaking with a walker.
