Wow incredible!

My friends dad just died at 102.5. He was still pushing his wife around in her wheelchair when she died a couple of years ago @ 98.

He had no cane and still had his wits about him.

For his 100th a friend of his son's took him out on a motorcycle ride, getting him up to 100 km. He had had a motorbike for any years.

No idea of his diet. He used to walk to work @ about maybe 8 miles. Always soft spoken and pleasant despite all the teenagers (me included) regularly hangin around in the basement.

Certainly he is one case of attitude being the golden mean

I have read an article about this centenarian a while ago, but forgot his name. Recently I was searching and searching the internet but couldn't find him.

Thank you very much!

Bernando Lapallo is very inspiring...

Wasn't expecting that one, most centarians eat meat.

Bernardo LaPollo mentioned he has fish, I believe three times/wk.

And more than that, because he said he has fresh fish 3x/wk and also eats canned sardines and tuna sometimes.

His diet classifies as pescetarian, but not vegetarian.

I believe he stated raw vegetable matter, but I am not sure he indicated if he ate the fish raw.

His daddy was into health and taught him while he was young.

So he knew the principles of good health early on.

His dad died at 98 and he's living beyond that.

We need to learn from this guy.

On complete raw paleo diet minimum 120 years to live.

I really do wonder what effect a raw paleo diet has on longevity.

I don't care about how long I live as much as I care about how well I feel while I live. Fortunately, they tend to go hand in hand.

I care and wish to live 120 or more and I feel raw paleo diet and whatever variants I move in and out should be the ticket.

Did he mention raw vs. cooked at all? I don't recall that.

I thought he mentioned raw veges at first but on second listen I didn't pick it up. Maybe heard raw with the salad and transferred it in my mind. There's a lot a stuff that goes on in there that I don't consciously control. LOL

Toast is part of his breakfast. He is vegetarian except for fish 4 - 5 oz per and 3 times/wk.

I truly believe that there is a number of external factors such as attitude, waking early, the daily walk and the tea. I "think" that raw paleo when combined with other things is the answer. This is how I try to live. If you are plunked in front of a TV or a computer all the time you're asking to not make it very far.

My grandmothers made it to early 90s. My maternal aunt is 92, mother is almost 89. She swims all summer in an outdoor pool right up to the end of the season. She's one of the last swimmers of the year.

He admitted to eating canned sardines and tuna too in addition to the fresh fish 3x/wk and didn't specify the frequency, so all we know for sure is fish 3 or more times per week, IIRC. He could be eating fish nearly every day for all we know and he said he occasionally has cheese and once a year he has lamb.

I still would like to find a 100 year old raw foodist...

we will have to wait and see if the current gurus make it.
although from what I see usually, the gurus suffered and were sick before they found out and cured themselves.
So they are damaged goods.

Unlike this 109 year old guy, he was tutored really early by his father.  So he is a 2nd generation educated health advocate.

Something like us fathers now who are tutoring our children.
