Hitting a century in IPL no longer surprises anyone. However, hitting the same century of age in the match of life is still a matter of great surprise. In today’s world where the people live more on medicine than food, people reaching the age of 80 is still considered to be a great achievement. Here is an example of one such super achievement. Emma Morano, an Italian, is the oldest woman in the world and the interesting aspect is that she is still active and wants to live more. She still maintains a regular routine. She wakes up on time, she eats on time and goes to sleep on time. And the next morning she wakes up fresh. Though she is still confined to her apartment and is unable to see properly, the spirit in her is still young.
When Morano was asked about the secret of her longevity, she attributed it to her habit of eating an egg every day. She started eating egg at the age of 20 when she was diagnosed with Anemia. In fact, it was at the doctor’s advice, she took to eggs. Over the period of time, eggs have become the supporter of her life. Egg, being rich in protein, is still repairing her old tissues to help her extend the life span. Besides eggs, it is her positive frame of mind that is also helping her to keep the death away. She is an inspiration to the people who lose hopes in their life at an early age. Her long life suggests the people interested in living long that the best way to prolong life is to eat a balanced diet and keep the mind free of any negative thoughts. Finally, being young or old is more mental than physical.
