If someone told me that I would die at 35, but I would love every minute of it, I would be content with that lot. Why live until 60, 70, 80 if all you have to look forward to is a regamine of daily vitamins and pills, coupled with some food that you would rather not eat, while your body collapes in on itself? Why keep living if you get no joy from it, with the knowledge that your body is killing itself more interestingly than anyone elses? I mean, what other disorder reduces heart elasticity, increases LDL levels, increases risk of cancer, depression, whatever? I'm making the decision. No pills. No food changes. No lifestyle changes. I will die early. I will die happy. MG
