My unpopular health tips.

Try to avoid visiting the doctor, all they do is ro push the propaganda that they have lent from the Pharma companies.
Don't allow them to vaccinate you, it doesn't do any good, nd it is designed to damge your immune system.
Drink a few litres of water every day.
Cut out sugar, you get enough from fruit and veg.
Make sure yo get enough salt - you lose a teaspoon of salt if you drink 4 cups of coffee.
Use salt from ancient oceans ( such as Himalayan ), and not table salt with free running agents or sea salt with micro or nano plastics in it.
Use Bicarb of soda to reduce acid reflux - don't buy antacid ills.
Stop smoking or vaping
Don't take drugs - pharma or recreational
Don't use seed oils (vegetable oils ).
High blood pressure is your body trying to cope with a problem - fix the problem, and don't make things worse by reducing your blood pressure.
Get regular exercise and sleep.
There are loads more - for example, eat a cup of raw spinach every day

Remember, I'm not a doctor, and this is not medical advice. It's just the opinion of a 77 year old man with no medical problems, who doesn't take any drugs ever. The above advice may not apply if you have already messed up your immune system as a result of bad advice from your doctor.

In principle, what doctors say is certainly true, but we also know that there are unscrupulous doctors who take part in practicing as well as pharmaceutical sales and this is not very good.
I am happy with the explanation above and I can accept some of what was said but for vaccinations I might differ in opinion that for some countries it still needs. clear if it can be true in order to avoid meeting with a doctor because obviously a large fee will be waiting for the meeting. the principle is do not overdo everything that is excessive can certainly be an impact is not good and drink more water and enough rest.

If what doctors say is true:
- then why are they often surprised when people live who are not expected to live, and that people die who are not expected to die;
- then why do many doctors not prescribe for their own families the same medications that they prescribe for other people;
- then why is it that they haven't figured out how to keep people alive for 500 years.

Doctors know a lot of stuff. But they mostly know that they don't know much of how life works.

doctors cant know everything. general doctors only know the general common stuff and they refer patients to specialists if its over their head.
specialists of brain biology dont know much about bone issues so one intelligent doctor in one area is clueless in another

also even with a diagnosis not every patient has the exact same symptoms or level of intensity. there is a spectrum. take cancer. no one can know the exact day someone goes terminal as their are always many factors involved.
for instance people also with dementia may forget medication which increases the likelyhood of being terminal sooner. others feel sick and dont eat and drink so they dont have the energy or hydration to fight it so they also can be terminal sooner.
all doctors know is average lifespan based on numbers.. its an average not a fixed statistic of 100% guarantee.
all they can do is advice what medication, care and diet patients should follow to maximise their lifetime. but they can pick the specific day of death

your expectation is like wanting to be told that you will score 120 on average and you stupidly think i means hitting a double20 three times. and be consistantly accurate
wrong
all someone can do is say you MAY average 120 but that might be
double20 x3 =120
10, trpple20 and the bulls eye =120
triple20 x3                                          }
                                                            } average 120
double20x2 and third dart lands on flaw}
(plus many other combinations over many tries)
so dont bet on always getting tripple20 if someone tells you an average 120 expectancy


as for the 500year old person theory
the medical industry is still young. it has only really been in the last 200 years that things have really accelerated
200 years ago average life expectancy was 35
yep kids being born would never get to know their grandparents uness grandparents gave birth to parents at 15 an parents gave birth to kid a 15 and then the kid might be lucky to know see the grandparents at 5th birthday.. (rare back then)

alot of doctors didnt even have a way to map the genome until the most recent few decades. so i would say expanding life expectancy from ~65-~75 is pretty good work so far for the last 50 years,
many people get to know their great grandparents. i even know someone that has a great great grand parent still alive..
so things have moved on somewhat

Most health problems in the modern world come from food. We're eating worse and worse. I think that in the 19th and the early 20th century we were eating the healthiest. It was the times when receipes were really sophisticated and people preferred a rich diet with lots of meat and veggies but not as much sugar and almost no artificial additives.
Now we're basically eating processed shit with a lot of spices and preservatives and it shows.

I've also notice that because now they invent a food that are delicious but with a low content of vitamins or not nutritious. I also notice that the limit of age was decrease because they can only live 60 to 80 as I know in my country.

For now, I am scared from a lot of person that because of technology they become lazy and it can cause from lack of exercise.

If you really knew a little something, rather than simply assuming all kinds of things, maybe you wouldn't stumble around in the dark so much... dark of mind, that is.

Try "gotu kola" for brain enhancement. Take it with Korean ginseng, and Russian ginseng (which is really eleuthero), and eat a lot of fish and walnuts.



BTW, cut back on the alcohol.

There are wealthy people who are using big jet planes to spray aluminum oxide, some form of barium, and some form of strontium into the air, in tiny-particle form. We absorb these metals into our bodies, and they travel to the brain, lodging themselves there. The new 5G telecommunications can react on these metals in the brain, to cause people to go zombie, burn out, or do all kinds of crazy things.

Learn how to wear an aluminum hat to protect your brain from 5G.

You only get one body, the way you treat it today goes along way to determine your health in the long term. What if you were allowed to have just one vehicle your whole life? You'd have to take care of it, change the oil, filters, tires, decide what fuel source is best and a lot more. This might seem like the best comparison, but cars have easily replaceable parts.

"treat your body like Cubans treat their 1950s VW beetles"

Treat your body as temple and everything will be fine. Stay hydrated , eat healthy, avoid junk / oily food , have heavy breakfast and less dinner. Beside that regular exercise is very important and also keep a check on your sleep cycle. Sleep early , wake up early, exercise , eat healthy breakfast and live your day. you can pick up any sport you like & atleast give 3 days in a week for that. Swimming, Running or cycling are good exercises to start with if you are not a gym person.

People lack of knowledge in one's health is why most people get sick, i used to wonder why i always get a fever more often and why my learning curve is so slow it really affected my confidence towards people and academic performance. Luckily im interested in watching anything in youtube that one day recommend me a vid to watch about health and how to improve brain function then i watched, after that i got amazed on how much i could do to change my body and change it to be able to learn faster like in the movie limitless.

"treat your body like Cubans treat their 1950s VW beetles"

Taking out time to exercise could be the best possible way to stay healthy. Exercise could be a simple jog or even 30 mins cardio. With exercising, diet is also important. Prefer to eat healthy and have control on snacking. Eat less each time but have maybe 5 food sittings in a day. I take out time to play my favourite sports most of the days in a week & also keep control on eating out.

[Negotiation]

Health is an asset if health is not good then many problems will be faced If you eat more oily foods like junk food then you should stay away from these foods. Also if you drink less water than what the body needs, then sleep is reduced This is why we need to avoid eating outside and eating healthy nutritious foods.

I think that we lack education of the nutrition and healthy lifestyle.
There should be classes from early school stages where kids will learn what it is good to eat or not. Sweets and junk food is tasty for the most people but we should not rely our diet on what tastes better.

Staying hydrated, exercising and eating healthy for me are the best way to stay healthy. Have carbs before exercise, have liquids through out the day , eat green vegetables , avoid junk food. Also, sleeping early and getting up early are ways to staying healthy and in better shape. Avoid snacking on junks, eat less but more times can also help to maintain good health.

-eliminate sugary fruits and starchy carbs too (low-carb or even keto diet)

Sugary fruits are fine in moderation, and healthy starchy carbs are good because they keep you feeling fuller for longer and make you less likely to snack on junk.

Yeah, they're not the worst unless overdone, but there's also the idea of keeping stable insulin and glucose levels, and taking it to its full extent that's called a keto diet, which has clear benefits (as you might discover if you do research beyond preconceptions).

-avoid GMOs at all cost, and go organic wherever you can

There is a grand total of zero evidence to show that GMOs are in anyway harmful or that organic food is anyway more healthy.

You have done a grand total of zero research, outside of mainstream sources appealing to officialdom.

-avoid major toxins like aspartame, MSG, fluoride,

All evidence shows that recommended levels of aspartame, MSG, and fluoride are harmless.

Only if by "all" you mean the tiny sliver of selective scientific data you have received from perceived authoritative sources and are presuming represents an accurate perception of the whole body of evidence.

If you need antihypertensives, find which types work best for you and cycle between different types (there are like 7-11 types i.e. different mechanisms of action).

This is terrible advice. There is good evidence for which antihypertensive drugs are most effective in particular age groups, sexes, and ethnicities. You should only swap drugs if it is either ineffective or gives you side effects. Cycling between them exposes you to big swings in blood pressure as you stop one and start another, as well as exposing you to multiple side effect profiles, for no benefit.

That "good evidence" is in a general sense. Each individual is unique and generalizations aren't necessarily the best idea, unless you're interested in average/mediocre health. As with almost any drug, they each, when used chronically for long enough, end up causing side-effects, which many doctors will be eager to "treat" with a symptomatic patch while ignoring the root cause. You might notice that, say, chronic use of calcium channel blockers (one of the many types or mechanisms of action by which BP can be artificially lowered) cause swelling in the legs, so it might be a good idea to try switching to an ACE inhibitor or an ARB (two other types, which have a generally lower side-effects profile). I'm not saying that it would be a bad idea to consult with your doctor before making such a decision.

These are two of the biggest pseudo-scientific scams out there. They exist only to peddle their incredibly overpriced snake oil.

That exact idea is true about the pseudo-scientific (selectively-scientific) mainstream/industry beliefs you subscribe to, having done no research of your own. Don't forget to take your flu shots and to drink enough fluoride to protect your teeth.

Indeed everything you say is true but there is better than all that is the power of the mind.
If our thoughts are positive in facing the day, then every illness will not easily approach us.

This is also entirely true, though if you're a Westerner you might be operating under particular belief systems that might make keeping good health much more difficult than it needs be.

-avoid GMOs at all cost, and go organic wherever you can

Well, if scientists are crossing a tomatoe with a pinapple so the tomato is yellow, the size of a pumpink and taste like straberry I would definitely stay away.
However, humans have been doing GMO for thousands of years.

And also, most scientific consider that grafting is :

It has also been discovered that the horticultural process of grafting different plants together can lead to the exchange of genes, meaning humans have inadvertently been creating transgenic plants for millennia. From genome studies, we can see that gene swapping has been going on since the dawn of life.

    Many plants are naturally GMO, research finds

There are many different levels to the idea of "genetic modification". In the broadest sense that you're talking about, the damage is limited to things like oversweet fruits contributing to things like overeating, diabetes, CVD. In the https://duckduckgo.com/?q=DNA+modification+technologies sense, it's the wild west, making a testing ground out of your body without your consent (at least without proper consideration).

Lots of useful advices! Let me add just a couple more which I consider quite important. Breathing and moderate exposure to cold. There are various methods. I would recommend Wim Hof method which combines both. Ease to do, doesn't require much time, gives you quick and tangible results. Highly recommended

Another winner! Combine that with (careful) fasting and you've got an extremely cheap yet powerful stem cell regeneration technology at your fingertips.

Out of the ones posted I think hand washing is the most underrated one. It's underrated because the people who do it are never, ever reminded of the crippling colds, sickness that they avoided. Things like water, people will drink water. It's part of their physiology, but keeping your hands clean. Very underrated.

In as much as good meal is required for a healthy living, it is a necessity that you excrete as often as possible. Think of your body as a machine because it surely is!!! Let's say a perfectly constructed and programmed biological machine capable of some self authentication but then, for optimal functionality, you opt to excercise every now and then. It is said that jogging is one of the best fitness excercise you can do and funny enough, it requires almost zero resource. In jogging, every part of your body is arosed and worked up. Again, you can also do some Yoga and free your mind from unnecessary thoughts, feeling of depression and relaxes you. A positive mindset could be everything as it helps set your course right for lucrative and innovative ideas. Surround yourself with happy people and engage in recreational activities. It is said it takes 17 muscles to smile and 47 muscles to frown so you can imagine how much energy you save by just being cheerful.
And always be open minded and tell people your problems. It doesn't only ease your mind of thinking much, it sometimes provide useful solutions as whom you confide in can help think of a possible solution with you, might be in your shoes as well or beware of similar case and how to handle it and can also keep an eye on you if need be. Drug isn't the only solution there is.
Stay healthy and don't be scared to talk to your medicine person at all times!

3. Antibiotics should be taken only when prescribed by your Doctor. They are not a magical cure for every pain in your body. Stick strictly to the dose, and completely you prescription.   Misuse of antibiotics creates an Antibiotics Resistance apocalypse. https://www.nationaljewish.org/treatment-programs/medications/medicine-safety/antibiotics-use-and-misuse

Antibiotics,even when prescribed by your doctor,they should ONLY be used if the illness is life threatning.Why? Because antibiotics kills also the good microbiome in your gut,which can leads to several side effects like slowing down the growth of brain/hippocampus neurogenesis.There multiple research suggesting this,but mostly in rats.Here is a recent one that studied humans: Source:https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27210745

13. Reduce Salt and Sugar intake.

Reducing Salt and Sugar is not necessary if you already have a normal intake of these two elements.In fact, it's life threatning to have a below normal salt intake. Source:https://www.verywellfit.com/what-happens-if-i-dont-consume-enough-sodium-2507757

The problem with most of the health issues these days is because of mixing different things into food products. We have already seen plastic rice. I guess growing your own vegetables might get you some good results.

Good. I'm glad we are in agreement that all serious scientific and peer reviewed data back up my statements.

It's actually far more common for tolerance to side effects to develop over time, rather than sensitization to them. Still, if you have serious side effects then of course you should try a different class of drug, but that's not what you said originally. You said you should continually cycle between drug types, which is just plain dangerous.
