Re: Airola Paavo was a quack

So, the guy is a quack because he died of a stroke caused by injuries he sustained during his emigration??? Now, I am no genius, but even I know that just because you live a healthy lifestyle doesn't mean you'll live forever. Longevity is not solely governed by ones physical health. There are hereditary factors, stress and environment, and of course past illness and injury that have long term effects on the body. Death is one of those things we can't determine when or how. Being healthy, to me, is more about quality of life than quantity. My obese mother who has smoked most of her life, has had cancer, kidney disease, is pretty severely diabetic(insulin dependent), and has been riddled with mental illness her whole life, is 63. She has been miserable for at least the past 10 years. I would rather live a healthy life that I can enjoy, and die at a fairly young age than live any number of years in a state of disease. Tweet
