Surprised by some of the foods on the list? I was and I wasn't - seeing as how I like most of those foods listed ( you all know of my aversion to Broccoli) and my having low blood pressure - it was 100/60 the other day when I was in severe pain from the back muscles knotting up according to the nurse.
You just can't rile me, even in the most pain I have ever experienced I remained calm, cool and collected, ok, granted the pulse was racing - at a frantic 50 beats per minute.

I have been eating the 'right stuff' all my life. How about you?
