Average pharma drugs taken daily by someone in their mid 70s is 10-12. I know someone mid 60s taking NINETEEN!! They are all messed. Anyone taking 10 Big Pharma a day is not themselves.

That is indeed frightening, but don’t doubt the veracity of these stats. Same age, take nothing. This recent physical, my integrative doc signed me up for a stress test. I just finished hiking at 5-9,000 ft elevation, and did 2 hours of strenuous yard work without getting winded. I cancelled the test and won’t be taking any of big pharma’s “goodies.” Starting to wonder whether the good doc took too many of those “jabbies.”
The answer is don't get old. I give this advice to all young people. if you have neuropathy in feet or hands you will take anything to be able to put you feet down in a normal walk. Alas, I ahve not taken my own advice and cannot afford servants.
I am finding getting old a lot less fun than I had hoped. There are some perks. I get to leave early without offending people. That’s a big perk for me.
Holy crap! I’m 72 and take five a day, but three are for a back injury and nerve damage. I thought that was a lot! If the injury hadn’t happened, I doubt I’d be taking anything except the occasional anti-inflammatory.
The only woman I know who is on absolutely nothing, desperately needs to be on something, lol. Rage addict narcissist, my non-professional diagnosis/opinion.
Our modern civilisation seems to require it. Maybe I’m the one who needs to take weird antidepressants...

Shit, if I had the courage of my convictions, I'd be dead now.
Yikes!
