    I take a bowl full of supplements/herbs AM and PM, work out at the gym 3 days a week.  I eat Metabolic Meals, which are free range, grass fed and wild caught and Carb/Protein preportioned. Think happy thought is a big factor.

    I try to do yoga five times a week, walk instead of driving and eat a maximum of vegetables and fruits. I also take supplements.

    I walk an hour every day rain or shine, exercise in the pool 2-3 times a week, eat the good stuff - fruits, veggies, whole grains, low-fat dairy, avoid anything with sugar or bad fat in it which eliminates processed foods.  I always take stairs, park far away and walk the distance.  I try not to sweat the small stuff and am exceedingly grateful I am alive, healthy and mostly pain-free.

    I exercixe 6 days a week for an hour.  I do 40-45 minutes of cardio and 15 minutes strength training  I eat vegtables, 2 servings of fruit each day and I allow myself one really good snack per week.  I just make sure the snack fits in the palm of my hand.

    I take supplements because my body doesn't absorb most of the nutrients from the food I consume.

    When the weather permits I go for a walk or bike ride simply because it makes me happy.Laughing

    I do a fast paced walk for 3.5 miles 3 to 4 times a week and work out my upper body with push ups and 5 to 10 lb weights 2 times a week.  I don't eat red meat, and as little fried foods as possible.  I also try to eat at least a couple raw fruits and a salad each day.  I have a son with Celiac Disease (cannot digest weat gluten).  When he was diagnosed, I also tried to avoid it as much as possible and had a 5 lb drop in my weight.  I was never very good at taking supplements until I turned 50 and my doctor reccomended that I take a good multi vitamin, 1000 mg D3 and a B12 that melts under your tounge.  After a few months of taking these regularly I noticed not only do I have more energy, but my hair, eyes and skin all look better.  I'm a believer now.  Make sure you get good ones either online or from a health food store.  Study up a little on them.  I just take them 5 days a week.

    Last Sunday I ran the San Francisco marathon.  It was my birthday--the day I began my 70th year of life!  It was great!  Yes, I do take supplements and lots of them, eat a gluten-free, sugar-free diet, stay out of the sun, never smoked and am told I look 20+ years younger than my age.

    Love all the regular exercising you guys speak of; I walk often and take the stairs doing brisk walking without support from the rails. Yes, I believe supplements are needed because the foods we consume are very often lacking in the needed nutrients, quantities.... Omega 369, folic acid, b complex are my regular features and I feel great. Omega at nights gives me great zeeeez. You have to first of all determine where your shortfall is and then supplement. Fruits and veggies are daily must haves
