When I was 50, and a carnivore, I was a basket case, with high blood pressure, pre-diabetic, sky-high cholesterol, unable to walk half a block without chest pains, constant acid reflux, depressed, overweight, no energy.... etc., etc. Then I gave up meat, fish, dairy, eggs, and refined oils. Within 3 weeks I started improving. Now: blood pressure: low normal, blood sugar: normal, cholesterol: low, etc. etc. My last case of acid reflux was the very day I went vegan. Now, 22 years later, I feel like a kid again. It's never too late to turn it all around. Meat is poison. Milk is poison. Fish is poison. Refined oils (yes, even the much hyped olive oil) are poison.
