How to live over 101

Above; Pioneer Adventists in the Warakamb Valley who are living long than everybody else. The old lady could be in her 90s. Two other pioneer Adventist old ladies lived to late 90s. They had great grand children.


There was an interesting program on SBS titled as the above. Investigators visited several areas where people had lived longer. The areas were 1. Okinawa in Japan, 2. a place in Europe 3. and Loma Linda in the US. Some of the highlights were; stress free life, genetics, Religion (SDAs in Loma Linda) diet, and physical activity. Interestingly, Hawaiians who went to live in Okinawa lived longer, and was not the same for the reverse. Also Okinawans living in the US died earlier.
The least prefered place was glassgow, UK where the average lifespan is under 60. Here, the incidence of smoking, alcohol, sedenary lifestyle, high Blood pressure etc is high. Faith, singing and exercise also made a big difference.

I can remember some pioneer Adventists living in the Warakamb valley to almost 100 years, including my grand mother who was a pioneer Adventist. She had great grand children before she.
