subject: Does Your Md Have A Pot? [print this page] MDs are supposed to be healthy, right? Perhaps they always are. After all, you probably have never had an operation postponed because yours was sick. Same goes for your office appointments.
But what about his or even her physical condition? Is it better than yours? It should be, wouldn't you think? There really shouldn't be any excess poundage hanging over their belts.
Granted, the women MDs are generally more trim than their male counterparts. At least that's how it is in my part of the country. But do they work out? Do they supplement? Do they eat low fat low carb diets? Or do they just not have time for lunch and breakfast?
Possibly yours is committed to healthy life style, but chance are he or she isn't. That's why telling them that you are going on a healthy regimen may raise an eyebrow. "Should be taking it easier at your age, dontcha think" is what you are probably going to hear.
What does this say, really? That the way we all are living is as OK as it gets? Or does it say that MDs are just so busy being healers that they don't have tome to take care of themselves? After all, they are generally loaded with appointments and operation commitments, so maybe that's it more than anything.
If you are starting off on a health conscious lifestyle, you need all of the support that you can get. That means being around people who supplement wisely, eat intelligently and do their daily workout routines. You need that kind of support. We all do. We just are not all very good at being pioneers.
Yet, Jack Lalanne 80 years ago had no one on his side really. He had to be a pioneer and he did just that. Today he is peerless.We can all be the same, but it will be easier if we consult with people like him instead of the MDs, who think that R&R is the only safe way to get us all into the nursing home in one piece, as they say.
