The low CHD [coronary heart disease] male

An effeminate municipal worker or embalmer, completely lacking in physical and mental alertness and without drive, ambition or competitive spirit, who has never attempted to meet a deadline of any kind. A man with poor appetite, subsisting on fruits and vegetables laced with corn and whale oil; detesting tobacco, spurning ownership of radio, TV or motor car; with full head of hair and scrawny and unathletic in appearance yet constantly straining his puny muscles by exercise; low in income, blood pressure, blood sugar, uric acid, and cholesterol; who has been taking nicotinic acid, pyridoxine, and long-term anticoagulant therapy ever since his prophylactic castration.

  2. To prevent CHD (which can lead to heart attacks and is the #1 cause of mortality and morbidity in developed nations) if u're male of course! simple, right?
