"The number of centenarians is growing exponentially these days, in different regions around the world.
It’s crazy, but centenarians are the fastest growing population segment in the US right now!
It gets even wilder than that. These people living to be 100 have 60% lower rates of heart disease, stroke, and high blood pressure.
So they’re really healthy.
That’s not all. They’re share a few qualities. They’re mostly happy and optimistic.
They have hardly any depression or psychiatric problems. Their minds stay sharp into old age.
Yet...and get this...some don’t exercise! So what are they doing?
Luckily for us, there’s been many, many studies of people who age well and live to be healthy at 100. We can benefit from the wisdom of others. " - Sharen Ling
