On an intuitive level, I know he's right. What I've spun as evidence against fruits and vegetables is merely the absence of illness. In other words, the fact that I don't have scurvy doesn't mean that I'm healthy. Furthermore, if I dispense with my denial, I can acknowledge that my odds of enjoying a disease-free future are slim.
And the weird thing is, I'm glad. Like Scrooge on Christmas Eve, I've been given a glimpse into where I'm headed while there's still time to change where I end up. I don't know if I'll ever be able to stomach spinach or carrots, but for the first time in decades, I'm willing to try.
