The secret for a comfortable life after 75:

[trof]

Prune juice.

1. Many years ago ...

Back around 1972, a lady friend of mine who liked to smoke weed,
got the 'munchies' and ate a box full of prunes.

She said they tasted so good she couldn't stop.

Apparently it was a very moving experience.

2. LOL

I don't eat them often, but they ARE good.

3. So, coffee stops working at 75?

[trof]

5. For me? Yep.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

4. I like coffee........or dates or.........

any fiber-rich fruit.

Whatever works for you!

[trof]

6. I'm also into probiotics and...um...

jeez...(stool softeners).
I know, TMI in spades.
Sorry.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

7. No worries, my dear trof! All of those can work wonders!

Remember, I was a nurse, and there ain't no such thing as TMI!

8. Dates and figs are delicious,

and do the same job enjoyably.

9. Fermented

Grape juice works well.

[trof]

10. I have a glass of that with supper every night.

Usually Merlot.

11. '79 here. Grapes in season

Green, red, rose, those big black ones with the seeds. YES
I wish they came as smaller packages though.
If I ate them all in a couple of days, before they turned mushy, I'd blow through my TP stash.

Medjool dates. Suck all the flavor out of the pit -- yum

12. Thanks. I'll try it.
