I remember re...DDT is not that damaging to humans. I remember reading about a human experiment conducted back in the 50's or 60's and all the participants were still alive in the 1990's. Couldn't find any reference to this study on the internet. <br />I have also seen the connection between hills and health. Grandpa also grew kale which usually stays edible for a longer period of time than turnips. Don't forget the muscadines and figs they consumed. They didn't have figs when we knew them, but I saw figs in earlier pictures where they lived on Loving Hill. I also visited a lady in Cabarrus County who looked to be in her earlier 40's. During the course of our conversation, she mentioned that she had lost her husband shortly after their 50th wedding anniversary. <br />Gardening is an activity that seems to be associated with healthy aging as well as dancing. One volunteer that helped me with the county fair got married at age 90 and was still out and about at age 102. He lived to 104. They met at a senior dance and he always gardened.

(ha) But many seniors do start too late to watch their health, many patterns learned early STAY.<br />BUT I do think the exercise took care of a lot of the 'wrong chemicals' (DDT) used. My dad always said 'sweating was washing the body from the inside out. I always thought he had something there, but he died at 69.
