Introduction

[Guest guest]

Hello Everyone,

My name is Mike Hester and I live in Denver Colorado. I found out

about the from the website of Dr. Roy Walford.

Obviously I've joined the newsgroup.

I have just received Dr. Walford's book: " The Anti-Aging Plan " , but

havn't yet read any farther than the introduction.

I am age 45, height 5' 7 " , weight 175 pounds, so a " Body Mass Index " of

27.5---slightly rounded---as am I, ha!

I have been fasting periodically (for purpose of longevity) since about

1988. No more than a one-day fast each time, omitting all meals on a

Saturday and resuming on Sunday morning. I used to fast weekly, now

find I am doing it once every three or four months.

I am in good health, other than having somewhat elevated triglycerides.

I think that optimum nutrition will help in that regard.

My first task is obviously education: read Dr. Walford's book (and the

" Beyond the 120 Year Diet " book as well). Purge and organize my

kitchen. Eat better first. Caloric reduction can start later on, once

I know more about what I am doing.

One " hobby " of mine has been to experiment with different health food

supplements to see what effects (if any) various supplements produce. I

have picked up a few things in this regard over the years.

I'm sure that I will have some questions for the group in time. I have

already downloaded numerous articles from the " Files "

area, and from Dr. Walford's website. I intend to monitor and absorb

new information before attempting to speak out on anything, so you

probably won't see another post from me for a while.

Are there any Denver area members in this group by chance? If so I

would be glad to hear from you. This is my work email address; I'm here

M-F, 9AM-5PM.

Thanks for being willing to share what you have learned.

Cheers,

Mike Hester
