 Hospitals are in business.

You are the derivative of the product they’re making money off. 
Hospitals are great for acute issues like broken bones and stitches.
Hospital is the last place you should seek advice for chronic malaise.

 Sadly most don't realize this and are  medical bills away from poverty by a chronic disease, eating right, fasting and lifting weights solves alot of the medical problems I see people running to hospital for.

 Do you fast? 
 I like intermittent fasting for people that struggle with snacking.  I used to do it but once you break that snacking on bullshit habit, I find it just difficult to eat enough protein daily.  
As we get old, we lose muscle mass and gain fat.  —This is the biggest concern I have for older people that are otherwise healthy.  

I still like the idea of fasting for 4-6 days at a time though.  Maybe a couple times a year.
Your Body does some nice house cleaning when you fast. Those hunger stressors on the body cause a lot of positive genes to turn on more frequently too.
