5 Centenarians Offer Secret to Long Life

August 17th, 2006 • Related • Filed Under


Any time someone who is 100 years old wants to tell you how to live that long, you really should listen. These women are just amazing! I have a 95 year old grandmother that says all the time….”How did 95 years go by so fast? No one is supposed to live this long!” Here is a great article that might just inspire and help you aim for 100 years old!

From Happy News:

“If you want to live to 100 or more, this rare group of five golden girls says the key to longevity is working hard at a job you love and taking care of your body while you’re at it.

Even though an estimated 70,000 people in the country are currently at the century mark or beyond in age, it is unusual to find five 100-year-olds living in one place is unusual.

The average life-span of Americans is about two or three years short of an 80th birthday party. And most people don’t want to cut out coffee, soda, alcohol, cigarettes and eat healthy.

”People tell me all the time, ‘I don’t want to live to be 100,”’ said Mildred Leaver, who turned 100 in June.”"
