How to live to age 150
How to live to age 150
How do you manage to live a full century or more?
In the e-Alert “Nut’n’Honey” (2/12/09), I told you about a woman who received a happy birthday wish from Willard Scott on the Today show. She said she had survived for 10 decades by never taking any medications.
That prompted this e-mail note from an HSI member named Jean: “I am 81, in excellent health, and I attribute it to not taking prescriptions.
“I saw what they did to my husband, a brittle diabetic, who started to die at age 35 and got a little sicker with each new prescription. Nothing cured anything, they were all just palliative. I made sure his diet was as good as I could possibly make it. I am pleased to say that, although his doctor had predicted his death at 50, he made it to 78.
“Last year, I decided to live to at least 150. I expect HSI e-Alerts to help a lot toward that end.”
We plan to be with you all the way, Jean!
