The Longevity Code: A 101-Year-Old Doctor’s Vitamin C Secret
From the interview with Dr. J. Gifford-Jones by Drs. Thomas E. Levy and Richard Z. Cheng
Dr. Walker had a massive heart attack 28 years ago at the age of 73. Against his cardiologist’s advice, he declined statins and instead followed the recommendations of Dr. Linus Pauling—two-time Nobel laureate and founder of Orthomolecular Medicine—by taking high-dose vitamin C (10 grams or more daily). Today, he is alive and well, while the cardiologists who urged him to take statins have all passed away.

I am still young. I play intense badminton against people in 30-50s. The last time I celebrated my 38th B-day was 28 years ago (haha).
The exact same thing happened to me back in 2012. My doctor told me i had to be on statins and i told him i'd never read a good thing about them and that i would outlive him, and i did, he died a few years ago now. I blend almost every day. Oranges, Grapefruits, Mango, Blackberry, Honey Melon, Pineapple, Coconut Flakes, Yoghurt and 2 Raw Eggs in that blend. Try it, you will love it. No you can't taste the eggs at all so that is a good way to get protein too. You can miss any of those bits out and add something you like more instead. Just fruits full to the top of a 32oz Nutribullet jug.
