I'll be 90 June the 8th and am still active as I was at 60. My problem is that I don't know what I want to be when I grow up!
Happy birthday!
Good for you. I’m working on that too at age 75,
Hope you had a wonderful birthday, Robert!
@@MM-oo8zq Thank You! and God Bless!
@@maryannmccandless1084 It will come faster then you think! God Bless!
My Granny is 90 years old, still gardens, drives and moves furniture. She told me the secrets are "Make yourself happy," "Don't let a husband drive you to the grave," and "Don't lay in the bed all day. Get up and do something." Love her!
My grandmother is still alive at 96, god bless everyone who lives that long
God bless her!
@JIM JONES
I take it you don't have a grandma or know anyone who's old.
I have known plenty of people who lived into there 90s.
Has anyone you known has died?
I recently counted all the people I know who died and I could remember about 400 people and most of them was old age a few where illness and accidental death and a small few where young people stupidity. And I am only 30 years old living out side a town of 4,000.
@Tony Dinh
Not really, it's all about if she has mental clarity , can see and if she is heathy enough to drive. I once knew a girl in her 20s who said she would rather get into an accident then get lost. I told her she could just pull into a parking lot and turn around and retake a turn if needed not brake the law with a dangerous illegal turn. Well the fool totaled her car. She was young with great heath eye sight but had bad sense.
@Tony Dinh
Been driven around by the over 80s and been safe. It's the person not the age. Yes there are people who needs to stop driving when they get a certain age. Sometimes it's not even that old they are in there 40s and shouldn't be behind the wheel.
I am 94. I enjoy life because of the internet. I keep socially in contact with all my family and friends. I keep up with all that is happening nationally and internationally, and delve into different subjects every day. My opinions are shaped by having remembered events and people over a long period of time. I am grateful to my God for having the chance to experience all that I have. Good and bad. I sincerely believe this earthly experience is another great episode in our journey into the eternities. When I consider the six and one half billion of us on earth today, I am reminded that there are countless molecules that make up matter. I don't know how much longer I will live, but I do know I am a happy camper.
Wow! Fantastic! Do you sleep on your back?
Keep her country
As a 92 year old and fully active I salute you
I`m 93 still play duplicate bridge & live alone in my condo , having a great time.
@@arlenesecrist354 I am now 95. Do you think, when it is your time to pass through the veil into our next phase of life that you will be happy to play duplicate bridge into the eternities? Just curious.
My DAD is 103 years old and still holding!!! He just had a Birthday in MAY, 2022. THANK YOU GOD. AMEN ❤️♥️♥️♥️🙏🙏🙏🙏🤗👍
106 easy great grandmother.
I turned 90 in April, always ate anything I wanted, never dieted, drink moderately, lifts heavy things, still drives with good driving skills and keep very active, in an organization I started, but slowing down a bit. Was active in Politics after my husband passed away and accomplished a lot of things in my community as the first woman mayor and councilperson. I feel that keeping very active is partly why I reached 90. No one believes that I am 90 years old.
If you don’t mind me asking, how did you feel about aging older? As I get older, I am overwhelmed with the suspense of the fact that I am aging and there is nothing I can do about it.
No secrets or vitamins? What about younger life, exercise alot?
@@ramenlover1727 my Aunts are in their late 70s and early 80s and they tell me how to set up my phone and computer apps. Your body is only as old as you feel. If you are not active you will deteriorate.
Drink one lemon or lime and water every single day never miss..or one apple a day ..an apple a day really does keep the doctor away
110 is the new norm Dear. Best wishes from Thailand Paul
My grandmother was also born in 1918, which is the year one of the women interviewed was born. She's still alive in 2021. She'll turn 103 this year.
very interested on what her routine things she do
Nice 😁👍
Wow - two pandemics for her.
The people in this video are healthy. They are the exception.
In few minutes you would be estatic about the decision you made today
Great content in your channel, I’m 53 and my wife and I reached $1M net worth in 2017, five years later it’s $2.4M. Our yearly salary is a little over $100K. We drive older cars, cook at home, eat leftovers, and have 2 in college. We saved for college and our boys help by working. They will graduate debt free.
Right there with you. I'm retiring early, no debt. Kids are taken care of. Building my dream home on 11 acres, looking over the river valley. there are loads of ways to make a killing right now, but such high-volume near impeccable tradess can only be carried out by real-time experts.
@@Natalieneptune469 That right, I started investing sometime in 2018 and by late 2021, I pulled out a profit of over $750,000 with no prior investing knowledge or skill, I was basically just following the guidelines set by my financial advisor, so you don't necessarily need to be a perfect investor or do the hard works, just have a professional who guides & mentors you.
@@tradekings5433 I read inflation is near 10% but as we know it's definitely way more than the media would like to admit, my plan to earn more passively and ride this out, can you investment-advisor assist?
@@Robertgriffinne Sure, the investment-advisor that guides me is Corinne Cecilia Heaney, she popular and has quite a following, so it shouldn't be a hassle to find her, just search her
@@tradekings5433 This recommendation literally came at the right time, I dipped by $11k in stocks last week alone. Its crazy! I just looked up Stephanie online and researched her accreditation. She seem very proficient & I wrote her detailing my Fin-market goals. Thanks
NOTES
8:50 no smoking
8:54 Exercise, 15 min/day, but 45 is better
9:10 didn't have to be at once, so could be spread out in segments; didn't have to be intensive (walking/gardening works)
9:22 Activities/hobbies (book clubs, socializing, board games): every hour increases longevity with no leveling off of that increase
10:21 Vitamin E, A, C, and Calcium did nothing
10:48 Moderate Alcohol (up to 2 drinks a day=10-15% reduced risk of death) is better than no Alcohol; Any kind
11:25 Caffeine, 1-3 cups coffee a day, is better than more or none
11:34 If aging, maintain or gain weight, but do not be obese or (12:00) underweight
11:56 If young, don't be overweight or obese
12:52 Start of Alzheimer's and Dementia part of video
13:18 Brains are donated for research
13:42 If you make it to 90, you'll still get Alz/Dementia eventually
14:04 The risk of developing dementia doubles every 5 years, starting at the age of 65
16:01 Dementia is diagnosed if there's 2 or more brain problems; there's no blood test/x-ray for it
16:26 What is having dementia like?
16:44 Diseases like Alzheimer's are definitively diagnosed in the brain after death
16:57 Dr. Kim looks for plaques and tangles in the brain that show Alzheimer's
17:32 Rest of team reviews 5 years of Bigalo's test results/videos, to try to find when he developed cognitive decline and the causes
18:20 Team thinks it's Alzheimer's, and were wrong
18:41 40% of the time, doctors are wrong about it being Alzheimer's
18:49 Instead it was tiny microscopic Strokes called: Microinfarcts
19:05 It's a tiny hole of missing tissue, and there are many (19:24) by the time the patient is dead
19:18 Microscopic strokes have no symptoms at all
19:35 They don't know how to prevent this, but low blood pressure is suspected as culprit
19:51 Vitamins, Alcohol, Caffeine, Exercise do not prevent dementia
20:06 High blood pressure at 90 reduces dementia (but don't have high blood pressure when young)
20:42 Half of those who died with no dementia still had plaques/tangles (the cause of Alzheimer's)
21:07 Possibilities of why this happens: plaques and tangles are not the indicator, person had plaques and tangles but developed something to get around showing it
21:25 Now they're finding those without dementia who have plaques and tangles, while still alive, with a new type of pet scan
22:08 yellow and red show amyloid plaques
22:32 positive scan means greater risk of future cognitive decline
22:38 They're watching Sid for what he has to prevent cognitive decline
23:01 Dr. Kaywa thinks cognitive decline is like wrinkles: many causes
23:30 Increasing plaques and microinfarcts eventually mean you develop cognitive decline
23:39 Joking about Romance/sex
24:57 Research is continuing on microinfarcts, and other specific types of dementia
25:09 There are plans to identify protective/good genes
25:30 wine, coffee, socialize, exercise, gain weight
SUMMARY
LIVE LONG:
Exercise: 45 minutes throughout each day (even if walking/gardening) (15 minutes is still helpful, but not as much, and don't go above 45 minutes unless you want to)
Hobbies/Socializing: as much time as possible
Drink every day: 1-2 drinks of any kind of alcohol, 1-3 cups coffee
No: Smoking
No difference: Vitamins EAC or Calcium
Weight:
When young: average weight, don't be overweight or obese
When old: average weight or overweight, don't be obese or underweight
PREVENT DEMENTIA:
When old: High blood pressure
This is amazing ty! Also I think the alcohol study is old, newer studies contradict that moderate drinking helps you live longer
@@Chickaqee I was thinking the same thing! It's also very possible that alcohol is contributing to the mini-strokes that Dr. Kim showed in the brains.
I knew it was BS, we hen I saw, "You WILL GET Alzheimer's if you live to 90."
Then, sure enough! "40% of doctors are wrong about it being Alzheimer's." Ha! I bet it's even more than 40% that are WRONG.
I heard dehydration can be a culprit of losing one's memory. Drink your water!
Protect Our Water!
In addition, I don't like the drinking of alcohol, OR caffeine. Both are poison and alcohol dumbs one down.👎👎
P.S. I think the rich drink so much, so they can "live with themselves," for NOT HELPING OTHERS!
Thank you. 18:49 microinfarcts.
@@bw1507 Thanks. Updated it.
#1 factor not mentioned. They stayed busy. They didn’t give up. They stayed active. I think that’s the secret. Never retire.
Yeah, because people with jobs never croak...
@@BlGGESTBROTHER Job? No. Passionate hobby. Yes. Stay busy. If you hit the couch and “retire” you’ll soon be retired for good. That’s what I meant.
You are correct.
I have the same opinion. Once you stop being productive you're gone.
Busy enjoying yourself doing what makes you happy, because if you love what your doing it's never called work!
That old man with the convertible is cooler at 92 than I am at 22.
Good Call.....may you live as long happy and be fruitful in everything
You’re cool too because you have humor...
I'm pretty sure he's quite the playboy.
Your just a kid .
HIs car was a Crossfire, super nice car, I had one a convertible 4 years ago. (have had 3 other sportscars) I have a 2007 Jaguar XK Convertible 4.2- V8 now, 1of 97 Winter Gold . I do car shows with it, very fun car. Oh, I'm 76, no pain, no hurts, 6' 3" 235 lbs. love life. I'm a artist/painter, on Facebook, I don't plain to slow down , we are looking for a Class C motorhome for next year. My motorcycle is up for sale, a 1600 Nomad,, never been down, Started riding in 1963 ( have had 4 other bikes) In the past we have had 4 other RV's and 2 boats.
My grandpap is 106, still living at home by himself, my aunts and/or a nurse goes in to check on him daily. Still doing fine, can't hear much, and had his ticker replaced about 10 years ago. I never hear him complain about much. He just really appreciates simple things, reads the newspaper, likes the food he eats, coffee with milk and lots of water.
Your grandpap is living my dream life!
They gave a 96 year old man a heart transplant? No way. That is not accurate. If by "ticker" you mean his heart, you are mistaken. They do not give heart transplant to people in their late 90's.
@@mygirldarby pacemaker.
@@jeremiahjohnson2741 How is he doing today? Is he a veteran
@@YankeeValleyOutdoors unfortunately he passed away in late July, but made it to his 107th birthday. Not a vet, but got called in for WW2. He had already lost an eye at work years previous, so he traveled all the way to the base, they fed him and many others a nice dinner that day, but he was sent back home.
It’s a blessing to get to 70, 90 with your independence and your mind intact is a gift.
My Tante (aunt) turned 95 yesterday and we love her so much. She’s sharp and vibrant and so lovely. Take care of your elders, they are a treasure.
What a gem! 💎
My Tante is 97 years old and the other one is 87. Both never smoked, weren't around second hand smoke and stayed active:) I plan on living to my 90 's also! My Opi lived to be 84 Oma 89- .

I’m gonna die young then lol
and that is self imposed. headed to the golf course. you guys have a stressful day!

Off course: but you need to ask, why people have stress.
The seniors in this documentary look and act healthy and fantastic for their ages! Love it!
I do too 🙂
Leisure World would be a freaking blast! I want to sign up now.
@@ashleelarsen5002 it was before the coerced vacs though. Maybe it's still good. Actually I think they only do that to bed ridden seniors.
@Will Swift I'm hoping to die young, 👋🏻 hey are you related to Taylor Swift?
The idea of living forever is probably the scariest thought one could have.
Living forever is a blessing.
My grandma was 97 when she passed. She was sharp until then, even doing her own taxes.
Wow amazing 😀
That's awesome! My grandmother was 98 when she passed. I used to go and sit with her and we would do the word scramble that they published in the paper. Her eyesight was a little bad and I would read the letters to her and she would unscramble the words in her head as I scribbled them down on paper and played with them. There were six words each day and we would usually split about 3 a piece for who got them first. She really amazed me..
24:25 ''Well I will!'' I ♥ Lesley Stahl.
My grandma was 99. Twenty years ago she rappelled down a well behind her home to retrieve one of her baby goats that had fallen in. She was AMAZING. Like Brett Kavanaugh, she liked beer. For decades she had one almost every day.

My father just passed at 98. He was strong & sharp right up to the end. He played golf up until he was 95 and shot below his age. I was lucky to have him as long as I did. Love you, Dad.
So he still got out and played golf? Were any of his friends still alive at the time?
What a great role model for the rest of us!
My Mom just turned 90 this March. Her mental acuity is remarkable. Dad who died in 2015 had dementia and it was a long, slow and sad decline. Mom has physical health issues, but her ability to engage mentally is fantastic. Sign me up!
Why
Sorry for your loss
One of the first things you notice for yourself in medical school when you first meet patients as a student is how poorly people treat their own health. Ignoring weight, eating habits, blood pressure, smoking, drugs, alcohol and especially denying one's own diagnoses like diabetes, thyroid disease, hypertension or pyorrhea is endemic. Being smart enough to take care of yourself when you're young is a big part of getting to be very old.
My Grandmommy passed at 90. She said the hardest part about getting old is that you watch all of your friends and family that were young with you pass away.
When my 96 year old grandfather was asked how one lives to be 90+, he replied, "Getting old is easy... Just don't stop breathing." ... sounds reasonable. 🙂
😂
Love it!
You can't beat the simple wisdom of our elders!
I'll take hanging with them any day over some of the people of today.
Another 90+ (114) year old gave a better answer, "I was always late".
Lol ... So we know where you got your sense of humor. 😏
Lol
I just cannot help loving American humors
My grandmother was born in 1921 and is still going strong 💪🏻
i loved this...it brings me joy seeing the elderly being happy
I can only imagine all the gasp she had reading the paper all her life
My dad born 1921. His 99th birthday next Monday. Still going strong. No cane or walker. I'm 74, and people think I'm 50. Musty be the genes.
1930 and same for me
@@douglashoffjr1362 wow, thats fantastic
My mom lived until 102 and passed this past August. Her secret was eating healthy, daily green tea and staying active. She gave up power mall walking at 97 and deteriorated slowly after that. Stay active my friends.
@user-uy8nw9zm6b She owned an Asian grocery store until her 60’s. She ate a typical Japanese diet seafood (salmon, tuna, mackerel, octopus. If it was from the ocean, it was far game..also tofu, seaweed, a lot of pickles (tsukemono) and a lot of fermented foods, miso, soy sauce, teriyaki, vegetables (cucumbers), fruits. She would buy a box of oranges every year and eat like 5 a day. Her big thing was green tea. She would drink 10 cups of green tea per day…often matcha.
My grandma is 94 and still lives on her own and cooks and cleans. Her older brother, turned 104 last December...and still lives at home and stands up tall❤️
Cap
@@gmx1100exactly.
My grandmother lived to be 99. She lived on her own and cooked and kept care of her house. She was once a pack a day smoker but quit in her 70's. She finished each day with what she called a "highball" which consisted of Early Times and water over ice. She had a part time job just for fun doing accounting work using Quicken. She commented "all my friends are dead". She was still mentally sharp at her age. Three days after her 99th birthday, she died quickly.
I'm glad I visited her on her birthday.

Hi hi hi hi Jo no no o o no no o no no hi I I u u ion also
@ Barry F
May she rest in peace. She had a good run. I wonder if she'd have lived longer if she stopped smoking sooner or not at all.
It's cool that you visited her before she passed. You done good. 👍
Do u mind if I ask how she died ,stroke , cardiac event?
I have watched this video three times and I have still come to the same conclusion. Happiness leads to a longer life.
Also activities and exercise
YES ! That what I got and BALANCE
NOPE!!! Money leads to a longer life. These seniors are ballers... or their kids are.
My mother is 95, eats healthy, but never exercises, stays somewhat active. I believe what keeps her going is eternal optimism. Never really worries about much, even though she's had a tough life.
@@prittyugly86 I agree that these seniors are successful business people and/or generationally wealthy. What bothers me is the study is of mainly white senior women. The study, although very vital, does little to address the issue of inequalities in the healthcare system nor the plight that many minority families face getting equally good healthcare for their loved ones. The silent generation and baby boomers have the highest life expectancy currently while Gen X and Gen Y are facing an economy left by their elders: the Silent Gen and Boomers that has robbed us of the luxury they are now living in. I'd like to ask some of these pensioners if they actually know how their former employees are getting on living off their Social Security and healthcare by Medicaid. How much do you want to bet they don't know nor have done anything substantial to help their worse off age mates.
I absolutely loved this story. I was blessed with being able to upgrade my computer and I was going to find a family in need with lots of children to give the old one to, but now I'm going to find a senior, over 70, who would love to have it.
This is a beautiful segment-- not only on how to do legitimate research, but also highlighting our seniors. Well done, 60 Minutes
I was born in 1999 & I really want to live to the year 2100 so I could live in 3 centuries. Thanks for the pointers, wish me luck🤞
The same with me❤️. I'm 21 and was born on September 28th 🥰.
Take the vaccine and you will live 101 dalmations 😂
Wish I could too
I'd be dead by the time I see you make it
Best wishes!! Hope you make it!
How I wish my father lived longer. He passed away when he was just 60, I was only 11 at that time. He was an alcoholic and smokes like there’s no tomorrow. Caused of death? Lung cancer and leukemia. We don’t had much of good memories, lots of sadness and fighting in our house. It was really chaotic. 🙌🏻 Now that Im 35, trying my best to live a healthier life to travel the world. ✈️
I resonated with the fear of Robert Duvalls character in Second Hand Lions when he worried about getting older. He was scared of “being useless”.. not the inability to enjoy simple pleasures, not loneliness, not even pain.. but being unable to give and provide.
I believe our brain and mind control everything. Nutrition and exercise are just accessorial tools for our health.
My husband's grandfather ,in England, fell off his bike when he was 95. He blamed the bike and bought a new one. It is called optimism.
Love it! 🤣
@PCM Denault He's in England, not the 18th century.
I am a nurse and I love taking care of the elderly. I learn a lot from them. They have a lot of interesting stories to tell! 💖
I'm a nurse and love the elderly too. They have so much to teach us!
@@01happykat Bless you and Apple Go for your work. Elderly people are so often overlooked or forgotten and I think it's wonderful to hear nurses express this kind of appreciation. Thank you for being there for them.
I bet!
Same. Geriatric patients are my favorite
SAME! I chose geriatrics as my speciality.. I never had any grandparents & I've always felt that I missed out on SO mutch.
I love working with the elderly. And I take pride in making a good job.
I currently work at a long term nursing home & it's so rewarding, when you get to know them & you get that deeper connection.
I have recently been sick, away frol work for 1 month.
And when I came back, to see my clients faces lit up, and you know that they are truly happy to see you!
They have lived long enough to know, not to take all this to seriously!
I am a caregiver for the elderly! I enjoy working with them. I love listening to their stories and their sense of humor are amazing!
im tryna make it to 90. Im in my late 20's right now
Several of these people look like they are much closer to 70. The guy in the blue shirt and glasses looks like he's maybe 65 at most.
What do u look like you age biologically faster compared to your chronological age that why with low vitality and infertility
Right , I was like 90?!!
@@joegalo3251 Your sentence doesn't make any sense.
I disagree. People are looking much younger for their age then in decades past. Now days vsome people are looking 20+ years younger than they use to... 70 looks like 50 use to.
What difference does it make? You can only look so old and it becomes irrelevant after 60. People only fool themselves thinking they look good
My grandmother is 95 years old. Lives alone in her home and until 2 years ago still drove her car to run errands. She has a sense of humor that would make anyone blush. Her secrets, she will tell you are, eating well, staying connected with friends, and loving everyone as they are. ❤ I love my grandma.
She sounds wonderful....learn as much as you can from her....she is a treasure...😊🙃😊💓
Grand dame your grandma 👵 ❤ 🙌
My grandma is in her mid90's too! Thought she had a stroke some 5 years ago and can't walk anymore, her mind is still quite sharp. These days she enjoys gossiping about the nurses and fellow residents at the care home. She even tells dirty jokes, that's a novelty for her generation. 😄
Reminds me of my aunt that lived alone also (but in Chicago). She stopped driving but lived til 94 (2018). She DID NOT want to end up in a nursing home and got her wish🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Wow god bless her... 😀🏡
My grandmother lived to be 97. She died months after surgery due to a fall. Prior to her fall, she was mentally sharp. She ate what she wanted. Never held grudges. If she was upset with you, she told you to your face. After she told you about yourself, she let it go. She could, and in some cases would, cook you a meal. She read the newspaper everyday and did crossword puzzles. She used full fat butter to cook and bake, no margarine. She had a daily routine, which included "early to bed, early to rise." She is missed.
I am a teacher and run a pool service. I have a pool customer that is 96. The guy has a huge yard and he is up everyday working on it. He also cleans the pool everyday and does it well! He was also a teacher, administrator and superintendent. He gives me GREAT advice. He is better than any therapist I could ever talk to! I asked him the secret to his longevity and he said, “I had a mild heart attack when I was 52, that was the turning point for me.” He said, “stress less, don’t sweat the small stuff and try not to care about things you can’t control.” It sounds simple, but this is what kills us, because we don’t generally live by it. I have a vintage Porsche that I tinker with and he does too! He drives it almost everyday. It’s almost as if we were aligned for some reason. He is a good man and my friend, even though he is 96 and I am 39.
My grandmother is still alive at 96, god bless everyone who lives that long
My dad is 92 xx
Have you ever ridden a horse?
Morshu hopefully my 82 year old father can make it that long!🤞

Terrific story! I am almost 79, live by myself, work-out with a twenty pound kettle bell, walk miles every week, take lots of courses, practically go broke buying books, and am aiming for expertise in the history of the Roman Empire. I am also learning Brazilian Portuguese as my daughter-in-law is from Brazil. I also skate and plan to learn to cross country ski as downhill now makes me worry. As it should. I have always been a terrible skier! For some reason, I look forward to birthdays because I see possibilities in each coming year.

I am just coming up to 91and am still doing 100km per week on my road bike, defiantly still wearing my Lycra. I cycled in my youth, played squash until age 70, and have been cycling regularly since.

When my 96 year old grandfather was asked how one lives to be 90+, he replied, "Getting old is easy... Just don't stop breathing." ... sounds reasonable. 🙂
Don't forget to eat🤣🤣👍

I have a gig where I sing with a cabaret pianist who is 93 years old. Although she has a hard time getting around (she uses a walker and a wheelchair) her mind is as sharp as a tack. She can play for 4 hours from memory and never repeat the same song...and correct my words if I flub up. I think its the music that keeps her sharp and she had been able to do what she loves for nearly 71 years.
A separate study (not mentioned in this video) showed that Alzheimer's patients respond positively to the music of their youth and not only physically but verbally and they exhibit happiness.
This is now a common practice in memory care facilities and nursing homes.
This was facinating. It would be interesting if 60 Minutes did another segment in a year or so to follow up at Laguna Woods.
Alcohol (1 drink a day), 3 cups of coffee everyday, socializing with friends, moderate exercise, and a being a little bit overweight is the best of all worlds for living longer.
What most of them have in common I see is they are almost all still reading, reading keeps the mind going.

My uncle just died a couple weeks ago at 99 years old, he was a ww 2 vet and a great guy, he gave tons of money to the homeless organizations in his area to help feed them, the WW 2 generation was truly a "great generation"
They lived off of the blood,sweat,and tears of the single people after coming home from the war.Congress jacked up taxes on single people to let marrieds deduct mortgage interest.They deemed that all singles lived in Ma Bailey's Boardinghouse.Because of them,I'm still renting at 72 because my father was always getting beat for jobs by GI's and could never afford to buy a house.It's a long story.
I am 91, almost 92, and from physical and health appearances have another 10 years at least to go. I take no regular prescriptions and am not thin or too chubby. I believe we are what we eat. I cook full family size meals, freezing leftovers. and eat fried foods, gravy, etc. regularly. I walk 20 minutes a day and do all my own housework, still drive, use my computer daily, and do crosswords, etc. I have friends and we see each other regularly. I have suffered great loss, losing both my children and a long term abusive marriage. I am a survivor by nature. I also believe genes play an important role.
That's so wonderful! I am 61. I also do not take any prescription drugs, never drank much alcohol, and no longer drink anything, never smoked, and I have been vegan for the past 13 years, vegetarian before that. Overall, very healthy, and rarely have need for a doctor or hospital. My issues are a nervous temperament, tinnitus, trouble sleeping, some mild depression (lifelong, inherited from other family members), and being single and childless when I always wanted a family. But I have pets that I adore (who are like children in a way), lots of nieces and nephews, and I am starting to see how huge a role it plays in ENJOYING your life - whatever the circumstances.
As you say here, you have eaten more or less what you want, had huge loss in your life like anyone, yet you are healthy at this advanced age. It seems that you have lived quite a balanced life, and genetics factoring into it or not, I think the balanced life is the key to not only longevity but to a much higher quality of life.
congratulations that’s lovely to hear

They're also not talking about 1 major thing... FINANCIAL SECURITY. All of the people in this study had financial security.
Agreed.. the elephant in the room. Finances can be a stress factor.. and stress , or lack of same, seems critical to aging.

I work with 65 and up, most are in their late 80s, 90s, and some are over 100. They all have some things in common. Many drink tea, exercise, maintain a social life, drink wine, are spiritual, keep up with current events, and most importantly, tried new hobbies/activities every decade of their life. Some even take classes after their 80s, changed careers.
A sense of humor , all the people I have known that lived past 90 had a great sense of humor!
Yup. My grandma passed at 98 and everybody thought she was lying about her age. She was so sharp, funny & knew what was going on. She could hop into a convo with me and my friends easily. I miss her so much

One of the tough parts of growing into your 80s and upwards is that many people with whom you've had relationships - whether family or friends - have died. This has happened to me, and I understand your grandfather's feellings and the feelings of other commenters who have lost loved ones.

My grandma’s 96 and her brothers were in a band with Willie Nelson before her brother Stan had a stroke. The stories she tells are amazing.
My family member had no major health problems at age 96 but was brought down by a medication that should not be given to older people. It affected her brain and stopped her kidney function and she died. Before all this occurred, she read books, did crossword games, walked 40 times up and down the sidewalk, and she fell on concrete but did not break any bones. She never had dementia. She never drank alcohol but did drink one cup of coffee a day. Can I learn from her?

I'm a healthy 62. My mom is 90. Honestly, I don't want to live that long. I would hope to go between 80-85. I watch my mom whose friends have almost all passed away. Mom still drives, But he's very unsteady on her feet so hobbles about holding onto everything in her path. She seems to make a weekly run in circles to the pharmacy and doctors, although this may be serve more a function of giving her something to do as she's very healthy. I rather suspect those who have children may feel they want to stick around. Anybody else feel this way? I am loving my life living it the best I ever have - - practicing a simple life.

My grandma was 94 when she passed from a case of untreated pneumonia in a nursing home. She never kept a phone or a black book, all important numbers, names & birthdates were in her head. Her memory was better than mine when I was in my 20’s. When I asked her how she did it, she said do eat & drink everything but don’t over do anything. Miss her ❤️

Thank you for sharing this beautiful memory here. When I hear someone sharing a memory like this, it seems to awaken my awareness that such memories are one of the most priceless things we can have as aging human. Really, thank you for sharing.
Hey kinda random question; do you think family that has passed on can see or even communicate with us here, or do you believe the Christian Biblical perspective that it is something different, posing as the lost loved one? Would be so difficult to have to decide. I almost feel like I know I'm going to have to experience this at some point, and I'd be wise to have came to an educated vantage point before the chapter has found its crossroads with me, as emotionally shocking experiences rarely make a solidified source to find balance upon for a well-sought decision. Sorry I need sleep. Delirious perhaps..😳

@Rye Bread you are rye you sag old bag

Speaking of "sleeping patterns and stress" I felt like I should say this:
Everyone should breathe through their nose, taking silent, slow, small breathes into the belly while awake AND while asleep to prevent snoring and sleep apnoea, which puts strain on the heart and lungs. Mouth-breathing is very bad for health and also causes deformation of the face and therefore crookedness of the teeth.
How many old people in nursing homes breathe through their mouths, putting unnecessary strain on their bodies?

I got to take care of my Dad for the last five months of his life. As the first born son, it was a good time to bond - and it was a privilege to wait on him hand and foot. He was 85 - smoked and drank. The last 3 weeks were hard - but no nursing home for him. We spent the final week in a residential hospice, which made the end a lot easier on everyone. You had 10 more years with your mom than did I, and my sympathy goes out to you. There is never any "closure", but time makes it easier. There's nothing wrong with mourning... 🌷

This is such an amazing video! We get to understand what people who've reached the age of 90 and what they normally do which allowed them to live longer such as staying active by walking and leisure activites. We love how they discussed socializing with others as a part of healthy aging because it plays a role in your wellbeing. Maintaining good and healthy relationships boost your mental and emotional health. It also minimizes the risks of loneliness. Success really does leave clues. Thank you so much for sharing these with all of us, you remind us of everyone here in Reviving Mind, the people we help and the health and wellness coaches.
