My long term diet plan?

What is the secret to long life?


Is it the never ending quest in finding the fountain of youth. What we have now is something expensive that can only make you look young with your age (plastic surgery). We also have people who claim that even if they are old, they are still young at heart (like me! but I'm not that old haha). So what does young at heart really mean? You can read it literally or figuratively, you decide. Exercise, they say can make you feel young with all your energy and strength. Eating right can also make you feel, look young and live longer. This is probably the closest scientific evidence we could have.

I have been fascinated by this scientific discovery that by eating 30-40% less calories a day and eating healthy food can make you live longer. Scientists have said that this is true from yeast to primates. They also had a 15 year study of feeding rats with normal food and some rats with less food and they concluded that those who had less lived longer. How amazing is that!?

But here lies the question, would you really sacrifice not eating all those fries, burgers, pizzas, etc just to live longer? If you ask me, HELL NO! I have always thought that life is too short and you should always live life to the fullest. I may not even enjoy my life if I don't eat those food. I love to eat! haha.

Just imagine if you ever do this diet and after 10 years you get hit by a car...LOL!
