Inositol hexaphosphate IP6 is a cancer preventative, dose-dependent, according to the various studies I've dug up over the years... and a cancer killer in high dose (works by forcing the differentiation of tumour cells, when administered in high dose, short durations). I take it every so often, as a killer T cell boost. There's a lot of cancer deaths/survivors in the family but I've never had any signs of it.
I'm not worried about that, or much else, to be honest.
I'll be 40 in a few months. It's a strange feeling because I look/feel far younger. Feels like a joke, almost. Especially since I've spent a third of that asleep, so you can shave 13 years off that in wear and tear technically speaking. My family are fatalistic about this age, especially the parental units. Bad things are associated with the four-oh and I figure they'll start up again about it for me. I'm not fatalistic. Happy I've survived this long, and I don't look anywhere near my 40s. Would have thought all the stress down the years would have made some crow's feet but my face is almost as blank as my diary.
What I have to do though, is to disillusion myself one last time with a few aspirations I never got around to in my 20s that are nagging me. Then I can go happy, unless I think of some more. We're talking major face-your-fears aspirations here, and the clock is ticking.
Admittedly I am not the party animal I was, and hangovers outweigh the joy of making an arse of myself so I'm probably going to become a little boring. I will have to take better care of myself, but given I've got almost no vices left that's just a matter of getting out and doing and being active. I work a lot so have a tendency to be lazy in my off-time. If I had a "past life", I was obviously a cat in it. Sleeping and lazing around is a serious joy that apparently as a human being I'm going to have to put behind exercise, which is outrageous.
I suppose I need to be more careful about my blood these days, maybe get some taken more often, mitigate the risks of polycythemia. Lucky for me, I'm sensitive to changes of blood pressure in my neck and seem to be able to detect when it's high or low just on how it feels there alone.
