answer:Assuming your weight is within normal range, the usual suggestion is to exercise regularly to get your heart pumping and possibly to meditate to assuage anxiety. Common-sense stuff. My sister is now walking about 6 miles most days and eating a pure vegan and organic diet. She is showing B/P and cholesterol figures of a twenty-year old. Of course, she claims to love her draconian way of eating and swears she (and her joints) feel better than they have in years. This is not for the faint-at- heart. She is almost 68, 5’9” and 139 lbs.
