Exercise your brain and body, keep engaged with work and friends, and feed your brain with a healthy, plant-based diet - as well as knowledge.

It is never too late to change the way you eat - once you do, your body will thank you with a longer and healthier life.

Fat is your friend. The brain thrives on a fat-rich, low-carbohydrate diet.

I like exercise. I like a healthy body.

Low calorie does not mean healthy. Stop fooling yourself. Exercise is good for your waistline; brain food. Good for your bone health. Exercise daily.

The problem with this rushed approach to fitness is that the body doesn't respond to sudden exercise and unhealthy dieting in a favorable manner. In fact, people who strive to get fit at the last minute risk injuring themselves from doing too much exercise too soon. The body needs time to adapt to a new exercise program through gradual increases in duration and intensity.
