Dear Doctors: I keep hearing the term “super-ager,” but the meaning isn’t clear. I’ve heard it used about older adults who stay physically healthy, who live to be 100 or who have a good memory. Is there a definition? Is someone a super-ager because of lifestyle or genetics?
Move over, Pennsylvania. This is a keystone state, too. Pennsylvania lays its claim for Keystone State status for purely geographical reasons. Sitting there virtually in the middle of the 13 Colonies, Pennsylvania earned its name because it, like the keystone in an arch, held the whole structure together as the United States itself came together in the mid-1770s.
DEAR HARRIETTE: Every chance he gets, my boyfriend says, “I don’t have any money.” He works in the fitness community, whereas I am employed in a corporate setting; I earn significantly more than him, but he has a more robust savings account.
O ur cat, Felix, traveled up north with us for the first time, to visit my parents and their cat, Katie. I was worried Felix might not like the long drive. My parents’ home, while not enormous, has a basement and an upstairs, all connected by a spiral staircase, and I worried he would become distressed in this new place.

Democrats rallying cry “Save the House!” are increasingly likely to happen as they confront the fallout from Joe Biden’s disastrous debate performance.
DEAR HARRIETTE: I’m 29 years old, and I’ve been dating my boyfriend for a few years now. We have a great relationship; however, his work-life balance has been an issue. My boyfriend works long hours and is often preoccupied with his job, even during our personal time together. While I understand that his career is important and allows him to provide for us financially, I’m worried about the future. I’ve always envisioned getting married and having children, and I want to start a family soon. Given his current work habits, will he be able to be present in our children’s lives or be an active partner in raising them?
Dear Doctors: I’ve been thinking about trying a keto diet. A friend had good results when she used it to lose weight. I was already worried so much fat would be bad for my health. Now I’ve read that a high-fat diet can cause anxiety. Is that true?

Donald Trump's statement in response to an arguably ad hominem attack from Joe Biden during their June 27 debate must have given more than a few of us flashbacks to Bill Clinton – specifically, his 'It depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is' dance as he tried to linguistically sidestep allegations about Monica Lewinsky.
