Phil Collen

“It’s the clean lifestyle. I’m a vegan and I work out. That’s pretty much it, really. If you keep the juices flowing, if you keep the blood flowing and you keep active and don’t put poison in your system, you can be rewarded. There’s no silver bullet or magic pill. It’s just looking after yourself.”
