With age, people start to experience certain symptoms, most commonly back pain, joint stiffness, and reduced mobility. However, this isn’t a universal rule, because younger people also suffer from similar conditions, while there are elderly people who aren’t affected at all.
Whether it is due to genetics or lifestyle, I’ve met a number of elderly people who’s health haven’t been affected due old age. And honestly, I never kept wondering how to achieve the same.
Well, a woman named Margarita might have the answer to this question. She has recently shared that despite being 90, she feels young both in heart and physically. In fact, she claims she hasn’t been sick in 43 years and believes that’s a result of certain habits related to her diet.
Margarita says she doesn’t have diabetes nor suffers from high blood pressure, something really uncommon for someone who’s nearing 100 years. She also says she’s not taking any pills, makes her own food, wakes up without issues, takes short walks, still reads without her glasses on, and what’s most important of all, she remembers everything she’s supposed to remember.
This lovely elderly lady says the people around her claim she’s healthy simply because she’s lucky, but she doesn’t really agree with that. Why? Because with age, she learnt what to put and what not to put on her plate.
Margarita also says that she sees people her age taking a bunch of pills and have a hard time getting out of bed. She believes the reason for that isn’t age but a result of what they have been feeding their body over the decades. So what if she’s right? What if we can extend our life and its quality by simply minding our diet? The truth is that a number of experts have claimed that food plays crucial role in how healthy we are, so I guess Margarita is just the perfect example of that.
The good thing is that even if you are 60, 70, or even 80, you can still make a change in your diet and possibly reverse the damage that has been done over the years.
