Belated happy birthday, Bo!

I will never forget an article I read in the Sunday paper insert, Parade magazine, many years ago. It was an annual article on the oldest people in the US, or possibly the world. One guy was over 110, maybe 112 or more. The journalist called his phone number in Alaska, and the 80+ daughter answered. The journalist asked to speak to the father and she said, "He can't come to the phone right now. He's out chopping firewood." Ha!

I wish such longevity for you, too, Bo.

Late to this conversation but my question is where does the cow get all the right amino acids in the right combinations? Maybe they have a steak farm out back? Maybe I am wrong but I've always thought I understood that you can get a complete protein with all the necessary parts by combining a legume with a whole grain. I don't claim in any way to be the picture of health. My fault for not eating like I know I should.
Brother in law went to a health and lifestyle center a few months ago. First day there. Taken off all diabetic meds including metformin and insulin. Diet, if it is green you can eat it and as much as you want. If it is not green you don't eat it. In 2 day blood sugar went from 200+ to 70-95. Lost 20 lbs first month. 15 lbs 2nd month. It's been 4-5 months. Healthier than in years. Other foods added back but no meats no dairy no processed sugers.

I adopted a low fat vegan diet about five years ago. I like how i feel. Dr John mcdougall has several books that helped me understand why the body thrives on such a diet. I still occasionally enjoy meat and in the beginning I’d crave meat or cheese or fat but after a couple years the desire for them went way down. I live on whole grains and potatoes with a cup or so of beans per day along with lots of veggies.
