I am a Living example ..... before the surgeon found a 5 cents tumour in my stomach during a emergency scope when I threw up blood in June 2012 .....
I was leading a very very unhealthy lifestyle, everyday deep fried food, kambing soup, fast food, soft drinks ... not even a bit of vegetables n fruits in my diet at all ..... My weight was 128kg... BMI was 42.52...., everyday drink hard liqour and smoke 10 sticks a day and i was only 29 years old....
Was already suffering high blood pressure, diabetes, lipids problems, gout n fatty liver and poor semen count. Was already on 12 tablets everyday
So the professor told me ....1. its either I die immed 2. kena stroke and let my family suffer or 3. go for surgery to remove the tumour in my stomach and start to lead a healthy lifestyle after the surgery....
So I LL and choose the 3rd choice which is to surgically remove half of my stomach and let the professor treat all the abovementioned chronic illness via surgery...
So currently, is 7 months post op..... I weigh about 68kg now.... all the blood pressure, diabetes, lipids problem, gout n fatty liver are gone .....my semen analysis is good.... I make sure I jog 3km everyday without fail, 1-2 hours squash on tuesday (which is my off day) and 10km cycling on a weekend..... i no need to be on any medications anymore now.....
I learnt the HARD Way..... I make a U -turn from the HADES..... imagine during the 9 hours surgery.... my heart stopped beating for 3 times .... every time the professor gotta use the "Iron" to resuse me back.... Lucky my willpower to continue living is super super strong because I need to support my aged parents.
I TREASURE my new life now..... if I dare to say I totally stopped the junk food and smoking ...I am lying to you.... once in a blue moon, I still go n binge a bit of it.... So when you start to know that your health is giving you the red light or even amber light, you should wake up your idea n start leading a healthier lifestyle before you end up like AH GUAN.
Best wishes to you on ur "new" lifestyle.... Cheers!

In health related issue, the remedy had been mislead into using medication, supplement and excercise.
Yes, these are a good solution to all health issue, but these are secondary solution.
The Primary solution is still What You Eat, How Much You Eat.
That is our daily dietary, with complete Nutrition.
As long we burn all the foods we intake for the day, we can consume almost any food
Problem arise is......we take in more then what our body are burning.
When this Primary Solution is under control, all the secondary solution will works wonder
When it is not taken care with, we still consume more then what our body are burning even after the help of medication/excercise........... God is waiting for you

Yes, eating is important, if you take in rubbish, obviously, what churn out will be rubbish that is harmful to your body, that is very clear.But I would like to touch on one mental issue, your brain, even if you eat the right foods, do the right exercise, but if your mental is depressive, alway get angry, or alway unhappy, emotionally alway like to take on others with jealousy and envying, you can also be leading a unhealthy lifestyle even if you jog and eat the right food everyday.
That is why both physical, oral and mental health is crucial for one to stay healthy, calm and happy

My Family Doctor advises me eat more FISH and that will do the trick .
I smoke since 16 ...... when i went for my yearly medical checkup , Dr.Lim told me my heart in perfect condtion .
Kidney and liver no cancerous detected .
Check prostate , no problems .
Check Bladder , fine .
But i dun really drink beer or alcohol .
And doing enough exercise really does the trick of overcoming the hazards after smoking .
The danger is actually when there is no problem, those who had some sign of problem will usually seek medical help and try to stay ok, those who with no problem one, are usually like what you wrote, but end up lying in my van without a single warning.
Therefore, healthy or not, you once a while have to do a check up, and one of the most important check up is not about seeing doctor and do examine here and there, it is you, you, yourself knows your body well, but many choose to deny it, just like Ah Nan, choose to ignore it, no problem lah, I am ok..then booomm! Chang tok chang liao

jogging is bluff want la, its help is only minimal, jogging is more for prevention, but you have got it already.
since you have got it, you need both medication and jogging. Jogging alone won't help.
A stupid young doctor told my good friend to jogs when his cholesterol was 260, my friend jogs 3 times a week, one years later his cholesterol shoot to 320. Same stupid young doctor says excercise more, another years later, he consult an old doctor,the old doctor says "Friend you are playing with your life, why aren't you on medication?"
By now, his cholesterol was 380

it's not about the doctor, it's your friend
he fail to tell you, how much more his foods intake become after jogging and even medication.

nope, he is quite concious about his food, he dun indulge in fatty food, of course he ate a bit. And he has a slender body and is not over weight.

High Cholesterol arrive from those with high visceral fats(aka internal fats, fats that surrounding our organs)
Person with high visceral fats is not physically appealing, they can even look slim and muscular.
the related to the amount of Visceral Fats accumulate are consuming of food with saturated fats in the worst, like lard, butter, fats in meat and processed foods, and when it come to processed food, the variety is too wide.
Person with slender body, thin and tall type, are usually having a low Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR), hence the amount of food they could burn are low as well.
Your friends might feel he ate little, but this little is actually more then what his body can burn. And he migh be concious on certain high risk food, but are still consuming without knowing too.
His remedy.......... just ways to long to explain
And, our doctor are trainned to provide immediate remedy, fast relief from pain by using medication and surgery, advice a little on others aspect like excercise and proper nutrition.
when you want proper Excercise info, ask the Fitness Trainner
when you want proper Nutrition info, ask the Nutritionist
Do not put all the blame to the Doctor, and they are never Stupid

Wow sounds scary leh, but congrat that u recover!! -
Joining TD will probably reduce some yrs of our lives...how to add back? Found some ways on internet ...cut n paste for info..: Eat power foods Adds 4 years or more A daily handful of dark chocolate and almonds, plus fruits, vegetables, garlic, fish, and even a glass of wine can increase a woman’s life by 4.8 yrs, 6.6 for men, according to research in the British Medical Journal. The foods are rich in antioxidants, anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, and other nutrients that can lower your heart disease risk by 76 percent. The age gains also come from consuming less fat and fewer calories as you eat more fruit, veggies, and whole grains, the WHI found. Quit smoking Adds 2 to 8 years The younger you are when you quit, the better. Period. Lose the flab Adds 3 to 4 years Shed those extra pounds. Recent National Cancer Institute research shows that being overweight can increase the risk of death by 20 to 40 percent. Other research links being obese to high cholesterol, diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, and stroke. The reasons are unclear, but obesity can shave 3 to 4 years off your life Get frisky Adds 3 to 8 years (seriously!) Having sex two to three times a week can boost your longevity by halving your risk for heart disease and stroke. The trick: Intercourse burns about 200 calories—the same as running for 30 minutes. And it may lower your blood pressure (which offers a 2- to 3-year gain), help you sleep better, boost your immunity, and release heart-protective hormones.
-
Get moving Adds 2 to 4 years Dutch and Australian researchers found that people who do moderate- to high-intensity cardiovascular exercise—like running for 30 minutes, 5 days a week—can live 2 to 4 years longer and live 1 to 3 more years free of heart disease. Running seems to strengthen your heart, as well as other muscles, and lower cholesterol.
