Over the weekend I visited my great aunts in Charlotte. There is almost 200 years between them and they are still in excellent health. My Aunt Marian kept mentioning the perfect bill of health she received from her physician. She drinks wine everyday. My Aunt Nola kept saying "no one does anything for me. I make my bed every morning. I walks. I drink milk everyday. I don't eat sugar because it's fattening." So this is what I learned to be the keys to a long life:
- Drink wine regularly
- Exercise- all I need to do is stay active
- Drink Milk- make sure you get your calcium. I'm not a big milk drinker at all
- No Sugar- this is a challenge
The only thing I do on this list is drink wine regularly but not daily like my aunt. She definitely encourages the wine. If I try to incorporate these things into my daily life; I know I will be on my way to long, healthy life.
