Less is more when it comes to my pills

Thanks to new thinking by some medical authorities regarding statins and blood pressure meds for us old folks, I'm now taking only one prescription medication – – carbidopa levodopa. And only three over-the-counter pills – – Vitamin D-3, curcumin and 5-HTP. For details, see bit.ly/1HxzXZA.

Hi Gleeson. That sounds good to me. Do you do any fast walking?

Kind regards

John

Hi John;

Today, 2 weeks ago since I broke my big toe, I started powerwalking again!!!

I thought it was going to take me 6-8 weeks, and I was going to sink into a depressed blob.

So today I did 8 minutes of powerwalking.

My humble intention is to do it 10 min a day for 2 weeks,and then increase it to 15 min for 2 weeks, until I am up to 60 min.

Does that sound reasonable??

Love and hugs from Eva
