When I pray for long life, I usually add in good health but the reality is that when a person starts to reach the age of 85 to 90, they require medications and this is because the body is now prone to a lot of illnesses and diseases. So if we are going to look at longevity in the long run, we need to also look at having good health as we age.

Yeah!! This is true, aging and sickness now looks like they are 5 and 6 and it is worrisome. As our cells become weak so does the immune system become weak thereby allowing our body to be susceptible to being sick and this is where we begin to use medications.
