turn off the switch fast. None of this lingering around sick and in pain..
From what I've seen vegan/vegetarian will give me that. I'm 75 and in fairly good shape. No meds or major maladies to speak of. I have been eating this way most of my life. There are many testimonials from people way older than me that follow the vegetable path.
As the saying goes. "Eat real food, not too much, mostly plants"
