Oldest Man That Ever Lived. Thomas Parr Age 152.

When I visited Westminster Abbey in England, I noticed a man's tomb within the church that mentioned he was 152 years old. Quite stunning, but certainly not impossible. Being that he was burried in 1635, you might wonder how accurate their records were. Perhaps there was some error, perhaps not. The human lifespan potential is estimated at 150 years and so far, we have one guy who has supposedly made it! Jeanne Calment, of France, lived to be 122 and no one questions the validity of her age. Some just live right and avoid the diseases of aging. We are all built to last 150 years, but the variable lies in how well you take care of yourself. I like to watch the television show "The Biggest Loser". I am still amazed they get away with calling these fat people the biggest losers. But that is what media people commonly get away with. It is almost as bad as the McDonalds slogan, "Super Size Me". I can hear the corporate fat cats still laughing at everyone dumb enough to walk up to a McDonalds counter and say "Yeah, Super Size Me!", knowing they are already obese and getting fatter. What I notice in these super obese contestants is that they show the signs of aging far sooner than someone slimmer would. A man I was focused on last night had completely gray hair, he looked like he was in his seventies, and he weighed four hundred pounds. This man is only one year older than me! I have almost no gray hair, I look like I am in my thirties, and I weigh one hundred seventy five pounds. There is quite a difference between us! So the take home message today is keep you weight low and eat right and avoid toxic habits, like smoking, drinking, and overeating. That's what my book is all about and I tell you exactly how to do it. Remember you are one hundred trillion cells strong. Treat each one of your cells like a baby and they will keep you alive for a century and a half. That knowledge alone is enough to keep me eating right every day!
