Eat to Live Long
October 1st, 2009
GREAT FALLS, Mont. — So what does the world’s oldest man eat? The answer is not much, at least not too much.
Walter Breuning, who turned 113 on Monday, eats just two meals a day and has done so for the past 35 years.
“I think you should push back from the table when you’re still hungry,” Breuning said. -usatoday
MY COMMENT: Who knows, but my theory is the key to longevity is eat to meet but not exceed your energy demands. In other words, if you exercise a substantial amount, it would be ok to bump up your calorie intake and eat some dinner! I also advocate “grazing” on healthy snacks to keep your blood glucose stable and appetite in check.
