It comes as no surprise that a diet full of vegetables can help you live longer. What might be a surprise? A glass of wine per day may help too.
The world’s oldest man celebrated his 113th birthday a few weeks ago. Francisco Nunez Olivera a 113 year old Spanish said he attributes his long life to a diet of homegrown vegetables and a daily glass of red wine.
The former farmer, who is said to be in good health according to his daughter, became the world’s oldest man after the death of Polish-born Israeli Yisrael Kristal late last year. He currently is resident in Spain and has four children, nine grandchildren and 15 great-grandkids.
Nunez isn’t the only person to include alcohol in their path to longevity. A 100-year-old also claims wine as her secret when asked as well as this 111-year-old attributes his long life to whiskey and cigars.
