[Professional Blog] What do Dandelions Have to do with your Fitness?

I will tell you

Published on November 30, -1

I was out for a walk three weeks ago and a man who didnt look a day over 70 was out weeding his garden. I stopped and had a chat with him and he told me he was 88 years old, I could not believe it! He said see these Dandelions herethey are keeping me alive! He spends most of his time in the summer out in his garden weeding.

I find it ironic that something we want out of our garden so bad is the only thing that may keep us alive.

I still get rid of these weeds like Bill Murray chasing the gopher in the movie Caddyshack, but I have a much different perspective every time I look at them now that I met this fabulous old gentleman.

Happy Weeding!
