great longevity advice, from one who knows...
On the Aegean island of Ikaria we found our fifth blue zone. Not only do people here reach age 100 at 3 times the rate we do in the U.S., dementia is virtually non existent. (About half of Americans over 85 suffer from dementia). Here we met this 93-year-old Greek Orthodox priest. His longevity advice:
Keep your feet warm,
Your head cool
Have a glass of wine with dinner
And leave the table before you’re full!
Something to keep in mind for this weekend!
