How we stay healthy

Everyone asks about ethics when it comes to testing viruses on non knowing citizens and the military.  As was stated American scientists refuse to believe experiments on others is nothing like what the Nazis did, we do the same for a higher purpose.

Have you noticed the number of hospitals that are advertising  on TV for ---Volunteers-- for different studies.?

Freaking weird the volunteers get nothing except perhaps a thank you.

We frequently have those advertising for volunteers for drug testing. Volunteers either have to have certain medical conditions, on or not on specific prescriptions, or never taken certain meds. Commercials say they will be paid.

Just hand over the chocolate...back away slowly...far away....and you won't get hurt....

Save the Earth... it's the only planet with chocolate.

A balanced diet is chocolate in both hands.

This book encapsulates my thinking on the subject:

You right thor, I agree to your view, we must eat healthy, live healthy and die. Overall we live healthy because we want to die without pain.
