Jagger had heart valve replacement in 2019:
https://www.nme.com/news/music/mick...surgery-2472682 Calianna got it right in that the Stones were hardly raised in poverty. A former work colleague of mine was classmates with Jagger at the London School of Economics before he quit to make history. I think the relative health of these guys (we'll never know with Brian Jones) is in part testimony to them being raised in post-WWII England when food was scarce, no one ate out, and processed foods were not yet ubiquitous as they are today. We can see the same thing with the baby boomers in the U.S. with street photos of people from the 60s and 70s revealing hardly anyone who could be considered overweight. There was hardly anyone in my grade school who was overweight. Of course, these guys can now afford any health and fitness treatment they require. Yet, I'm still amazed at Keith Richards who defies all odds and overcame all substances to still be alive today. There's a documentary about Keith that I believe aptly captures his creative and humorous spirit called (appropriately), "Under The Influence." It's available on Netflix for anyone who is a fan. He is certainly a creative force and possibly the primary creative force behind the Stones' music. |
Thanks for the corrections!
According to DH, Keith Richards had medical connections for non-adulterated drugs of choice. Not street-stuff, cut with whatever is handy. Just anec-data-ly, that's significant to me. They can afford better food and better drugs. :lol: |
A New Study in the Journal of the American Cancer Society: Proportion and number of cancer cases and deaths attributable to potentially modifiable risk factors in the United States, 2019
https://acsjournals.onlinelibrary.w...3322/caac.21858 Cigarette smoking was the leading risk factor contributing to cancer cases and deaths overall (19.3% and 28.5%, respectively), followed by excess body weight (7.6% and 7.3%, respectively), and alcohol consumption (5.4% and 4.1%, respectively). As in the past study, it is being overweight itself that increases the risk of certain cancers. The study considers diet intakes like processed meats, low fiber, etc. but they are relatively low risk. Quote:
