How long will I live?

Will I Live to see 80?

Here's something to think about.
I recently picked a new primary care doctor. After two visits and exhaustive Lab tests, he said I was doing 'fairly well' for my age. A little concerned about that comment, I couldn't resist asking him, 'Do you Think I'll live to be 80?'


He asked, 'Do you smoke tobacco, or drink beer or wine?'
'Oh no,' I replied. 'I'm not doing drugs, either!' Then he asked, 'Do you eat rib-eye steaks and barbecued ribs? 'I said, 'No, my former doctor said that all red meat is very unhealthy!' Do you spend a lot of time in the sun, like playing golf, sailing, hiking, Or bicycling?' 'No, I don't,' I said." He asked, 'Do you gamble, drive fast cars, or have a lot of sex?' 'No,' I said"


He looked at me and said,....'Then, why do you even give a chit??'


:shock:

Red meat is not un-healthy.......now, greenish meat is un-healthy, but red meat is OK.
