Nutrition and Exercise Are the Components of a Healthy Lifestyle

Prior to the 70s, our parents and grandparents had a healthy lifestyle. And they had this healthy life without having to go to the gym, or having to participate in formalized exercise programs.
(A healthy lifestyle reduces coronary heart disease by 80%!)
Our parents and grandparents were able to accomplish this because they walked a lot more than we do today, and they did not have the many household labor-saving gadgets that we now have.
Exercise is necessary these days because household labor-saving devices have reduced or eliminated manual effort. When I was growing up, my mother washed our clothes in the bathtub on a scrub board. We didn’t have an electric washing machine. Needless to say we didn’t have a dryer either. My mother had to lug those heavy wet clothes up a flight of stairs to the roof.
We opened tin cans with a good old-fashioned can opener. That was really great for the arms. There were no “pop” tops back then. Remember the automobile before electric windows were installed in them? We exercised our arms another way—by cranking the windows up and down. The components of a healthy lifestyle were there.
Before gasoline-powered snow blowers and lawn mowers, we shoveled snow and pushed mechanical mowers through grass and weed. Our parents and grandparents were a lot fitter than today’s generation because they didn’t have these machines. Their everyday activities provided them with a healthy lifestyle.
