Getting tips from other people

So I was jogging with my son yesterday, and we passed a man that lives in our neighborhood. He's really nice, walks his dog a lot, anyways he stopped me to tell me to drink water... fine whatever yeah I know I need to drink water while im running its the summer and its hot and i'm sweating. Thanks for your advice. Next time around we meet him on the other side of our block, as we were walking/jogging in different directions, he stops me again and asks how often I run? I say I do about 10 miles a week, this day I was doing 5, and he says why do you run? DUH i'm trying to lose weight, its fun and my son enjoys it. Then he gets all concerned , "are you eating enough food?", "do you eat enough vitamin k? because if you don't eat enough meat you'll die of a vitamin k deficientcey" and I was like im pretty sure vitamin k is from leafy greens, he says no you need to eat a lot of meat so you don't die. I told him I eat mostly organic, raw, fresh, homegrown, local produce, he says "oh organic doesn't mean anything, its not really good for you at all", some meat to make up my protein, and calcium from almond milk and yogurt, he said oh "you need more than that, adults need to drink whole milk for the milk fat, everyone needs to drink cows milk for the milk fat" , and I was like um no. Wow so morale of the story is when listening to someone tell you what you should be doing be poilte but go home and make sure you know whats good for your body, research everything and make sure that your getting the correct vitamins and minerals, calcium, ect. that YOU need.
