Many of us over 70 would’ve been dead by now if it wasn’t for modern medicines. We had polio, whooping cough and smallpox vaccines available and administered which saved us from diseases that the previous generation died from. Healthy eating has obviously helped alongside all the technical advances in surgery, diagnostics and research. I would probably have died from the effects of diabetes without the drugs that daily help me manage the condition.
