    The Straight Info On Food & Exercise
    >
    > Q: I've heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life. Is this true?
    > A: Your heart is only good for so many beats, and that's it. Everything

    >
    > Q: Should I cut down on meat and eat more fruits and vegetables?
    > A: You must grasp logistical efficiencies. What does a cow eat? Hay and
    > corn. And what are these? Vegetables. So a steak is nothing more than an
    > efficient mechanism of delivering vegetables to your system. Need grain?
    > Eat chicken. Beef is also a good source of field grass (green leafy
    > vegetable). And a pork chop can give you 100% of your recommended daily
    > allowance of vegetable slop.
    >
    > Q: How can I calculate my body/fat ratio?
    > A: Well, if you have a body, and you have body fat, your ratio is one to
