On the cover: The revelation known as the Word of Wisdom was received 150 years ago. In this issue we examine D&C 89, the blessings that come from observing its precepts, and the modern-day medical viewpoint. Latter-day Saint families that observe the Word of Wisdom usually live longer and enjoy life more, Cover photography by Mike Schoenfeld.
