A 116 old year woman from Ecuador who recently passed away was believed to be the world's oldest person to date.
What I find most interesting about centenarians are their answers to that imperative question, "What is your secret to longevity?" The woman mentioned above said she always ate three meals a day and never smoked or drank hard liquor.
I remember one Chinese man who had a similar lifespan, and his answer was "Eat plenty of pork and stay single". lol! Another asian woman said she drank lots of rice wine and had a "romantic" life with a wonderful husband.
It's amazing how some people who practiced a life long commitment of good diet, exercise and intellectual stimulation ends up with a fatal health complication and early death. While others longevity has belied their carefree "live for today, not tomorrow" lifestyles.
I wish someone had asked Yoda what his secret was to live until 900. "Believe in The Force and drink Jedi Juice 3 times daily, you must."
