I almost think they put something in the food
People eat all sorts of garbage and think they are 'eating healthy.' It's true there is a genetic component - some people were dealt a crappy hand right from the start. I know a guy like that, his whole family has blood pressure & cholesterol & heart issues. He turns 62 this year. Apart from his inherited traits he smoked, never exercised, couldn't stuff enough crappy food in his face ..... and now has a defibrillator wired into his chest which was needed at least once. Yet, in a supermarket I've seen him grab all that processed crapola out of the frozen food section: Tater Tots. Frozen pizza and for a man with heart issues and sky high blood pressure - God Help Me ... Dinty Moore stew. He says "look - it doesn't need to be refrigerated!" Nope, I guess not because even bacteria can't live in that salty primordial slime. If they want to see where Life can thrive in extreme environments there are easier test labs available right at the Food Lion, you don't need to go to one of Jupiter's moons. Aaack. Factor that thinking and excess availability of junk into the cost and scope of the health care situation in this country.
There are those of us who are going to just fall apart anyway, then there are those who succumb to poor maintenance at virtually any age, and then there are those that (and this is where I think I fit in) just burn out. To paraphrase Indiana Jones "it ain't the years honey, it's the mileage"
