    My great aunt died at around 97 years old. She ate small portions her whole life, and was big on drinking lemon-juice. She was in amazing health her whole life, and was never stressed, which likely had a lot to do with never being married or having kids. She said the key to long life was minimal food and minimal stress. Good luck to us all!

    My great Aunt lived until 103. She was a good weight, walked everyday, low sugar, no prepackaged or take out, even eating out was a no no. She ate a salad and a huge side of vegetables with lunch and dinner. Breakfast, she has orange juice, oatmeal with berries, coffee with whole milk, and a small bowl of fruit with honey, flax and chia on top. She was doing this stuff way before it became an influencer thing..like 1960's on. She also read everyday and did some form of art or creative work. She also didn't take anyone's bs..peace at all costs! LOL

      I was just watching a video on new research that showed that it's incredibly important to eat veggies First with any meal. More blood sugar spikes leads to more issues that impact life span. Turns out if you eat veggies First in your meal your body begins to immediately break the food down and the high fiber creates a protective mesh in your dietary tract and stops blood sugar spikes. I started trying this and it's surreal. It works to regulate blood sugar and I can eat all the regular stuff I eat, which is moderately healthy, and the meal doesn't cause blood sugar spikes and then that burnout feeling.
      So I wonder how many of these people that live longer, just happened to have a salad starter with their meals? For me, I'm convinced. I had stopped eating until noon because of the blood sugar swing was crashing me. Basically, I'm going to switch to Japanese style breakfast, instead of American and always eat my veggies first!

      @@Dobrojuto.yt-7 For your Information, not necessarily. Nutrition is a huge part of that equation and the will to live is an even stronger factor. My dad is classic example of someone who comes from a lineage of long living people. But my dad lost the will to live after a traumatic experience in his golden years. I saw him deteriorate slowly until his death. The life force left him and it was clearly obvious he didn't want to live. Prior to that, my dad was a funny, out-going guy who loved life. So no, it's not genetics. You can have all the genetics in the world but if you don't eat nutrient dense foods it ain't gonna do you any good. Add no purpose or meaning in life and you'll be living even a shorter time.
      I also know people who don't come from a lineage of long living people but live into their 90s and 100+ with no health issues.

Her health is awful and since her husband passed last year she's a basket case. She never did eat properly, no exercise, watching television, especially those judge shows about other folks problems, and always in bed for some strange reason. Had a rough childhood but so did I, however, I chose not to let it ruin my life. The way you THINK will definitely be the determining factor of the QUALITY of your life no matter the length.

Two were sisters, they said it was that they never married and one was a man who drank beer & smoked cigarettes everyday. If you believe what you eat is good for you, it will be. On the other hand, if you are eating something saying "I shouldn't eat this, this is no good" it certainly won't be. Do what you believe is good for you & listen to your inner guidance.

    If your rich, you can afford a healthy lifestyle and regular dr visits. If something is wrong, you can get it fixed so your not sick anymore. You can pay for test and meds your insurance won’t. You don’t have to stress over things normal people do, like work, affording rent , bills, food, insurance, etc. They can afford to take vacations to relax while we can’t. They can take most things in life for granted, unlike the rest of us. Money is power. Poverty is death.

Insurance don’t cover everything and there are limits on how much they cover each year. This is why some have to choose between their meds and food. Some meds cost $2000 a month and your only allowed 3 month’s coverage of it because there is a $6000 a yr limit on meds. Some insurance won’t even cover all diabetics meds a month. I hope you never find yourself in need of meds or test and your insurance won’t cover it. Your probably young and in great health. Enjoy it while you can. It won’t always be like that.

      Was she mRNA-vaccinated? It's coming out the vaccins contain contaminated DNA and many injections were not aspirated, which causes the vaccine to go into the bloodstream and hit all organs. This process accelerates with people who are very active.

      While I like that attitude, it’s not that simple. It’s not only about how stressful your daily life is. Stress gets stored in the body and most people need help and guidance in how to release that stress. Old traumas from childhood gets stuck in the body. Many of us are living with childhood traumas still affecting us and we are not even aware of it because it has been normalized in our society. I recommend everyone to take a course in nervous system regulation.
