Wonderful post. I was going to remind you of the Norman Cousins story but you are ahead of me.
My definition of "relatively healthy" is "not dead"
Most of the universe is cold, dark, empty, and lifeless, and whatever our conditions, we can be grateful for the precious gift of being on this warm, bright, life-filled and love-filled planet.
Great recommendations, thank you. I really enjoyed 'Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead' - and its sequel - although there's no way I could manage Joe Cross's juice diet. You make some excellent points in your post, backed up with great examples.
Good food, fresh air and exercise are all part of my own little futureproofing project - if I haven't got my health then not much else really matters!

Such good lessons about taking a positive and proactive approach to our health.
