[QUOTE="MIP1950, post: 212503, member: 42988"] In the book, 'The Blue Zones' the focus was on areas of the world where men and women have extraordinary longevity. One place was the Greek island of Ikarias. They eat a mostly plant based diet, drink homemade wine, homegrown honey, dairy products from goat's milk and whole grain bread. Men in their 80's, 90's, up to 100 claimed that they were still sexually active, which could mean weekly to once or twice a month. In the 1900's Elias Metchikoff, Ph.D, a Russian microbiologist, explored cultures that consumed fermented milk products, daily, and believed that was a key to their longevity and, to good health, in general. However, he also acknowledged that where they lived and how they lived were likely factors, also, to longevity. For another take on this, there was an African-American women in DC, 100, who said her good health came from drinking a glass of Guinness every day. There are many interesting. even tantalizing areas to explore in regards to finding the keys to robust health and longevity, including the role of hormones, but a 'formula' has yet to emerge. And genetics/epigenetics are significant critical factors. For me, at 71, I'm still physically strong, not from exercise. Seems to be a genetic endowment. My grandfather and father, both small and wiry, had good physical strength. I'm less wiry than I was 30 years ago, but I still do push ups and use hand grips(100 repetitions). I walk a lot. Hip and ankle issues ended my jogging a few decades ago. But, severe mental illness and poor sleep have been eroding my health for 17 years. [/QUOTE]
