First, we must acknowledge that no diet in the world can halt or slow the aging process. Aging is inevitable and food is not the elixir of life – although the type of food you choose can lengthen or shorten your life.

Everyday it is possible to open up an issue of “Men’s Fitness” or “Muscle and Fitness” or “Modern Woman” or “TIME” or any magazine for that matter, and find the “new and/or improved” way to lose weight, improve the quality of life, or extend your years working towards the other two goals. Almost all of the methods prescribed can work; some are exercise and some are diet. For the most part though, achieving diet or exercise goals requires one to have great discipline. It has been proven, by each of these diet deveopers, that the diets they prescribe will work if the individual will just manage his caloric intake.

Marge doing a routine exercise in her apartment like walk about a mile around, make her bed, clean her bedroom and after breakfast, she doing a stationary bicycle ride and weight lifting. Marge diet include drinking six glass of water before breakfast, eating oatmeal, some raw fruit, vegetable and less meat. Marge doing reflection to the lord and his blessing, which like in Asian culture, they believe in their ancestor watching over them, Marge believe that god is watching over her and she show appreciate that could be a boost to her spiritual health that could affect to improve in her mental and physical health.

In the video How to Live to be One Hundred Plus the main goal is trying to find the optimal lifestyle of longevity and come up with a formula for longevity. Dan Buettner starts talking about three blue zones: Sardinia, Okinawa, and Loma Linda, CA. The first blue zone is in Sardinia, only up in the highlands with an area called the Nuoro province. This part of Sardinia has an oldest male society, where 102 year olds ride bikes to work and chop wood. Since the land is so infertile, people in this area are mostly shepherds, which means their exercise is regular low-intensity physical activity. Their diet is mostly plant based and consists of unleavened whole wheat bread called carta musica, cheese made from grass fed animals high in omega 3 fatty acids, and Cannonau, a wine with three times the level of polyphenols. In this society, age and knowledge is thought of very highly, and is celebrated through a centenarian of the month calendar. Keeping family around is also a big part of the culture and can add an extra 6 years of life expectancy, which is also known as the grandmother effect.

Death rates, have decreased significantly over the years due to many scientific breakthroughs in medicine. People today are living longer than they did 100 years ago. Or for lack of a better example, Back in the days of the Black Death, you were lucky to be alive in your forty’s. It’s unlikely for people to die at forty over a flu in present day America. However, some diseases, we have only begun to understand a little more. For example, cancer is a big threat to human longevity. According to Peter Crosta, in an article he wrote, “Cancer harms the body when altered cells divide uncontrollably to form lumps or masses of tissue called tumors” (2015). Treatments for cancer are not as effective as we would want them to be. Cancer treatments

The idea that we are in control of how we age is comforting and troublesome as the level of control is often varied. Numerous health promoting behaviors have been strongly associated with reduced age related health concerns and a higher quality of life. Refraining from smoking, active lifestyle choices, and frequent social participation all have health-promoting tendencies, traits like these could be considered highly available with few barriers to achieving their benefits. Meaning everyone should be able to improve there projected aging by engaging in such traits. However, not all factors are equally accessible education, gender, stress, diet, geographic location, and genes all greatly impact the course of aging. With most of those factors determined at birth or early life decision the consequences they have on aging is often not seen as a choice. Financial constraints can negatively impact diet and level of activity direct impacting BMI. This is a growing concern in Canada with a doubling of 60 -69 year-olds classified as obese since 1981 (Canadian Health Measures Survey). A high BMI

Would I want to live to be 100? That’s an interesting question that’s very hard for me to answer each time I think about how to answer it. So, with most things in life, there’s a good and a bad side to most situations. But for me, with this certain topic, I’m not going to lie, I’m torn between which side to take. Over the years I’ve experienced some details to support these two sides of this topic ranging from music all the way to videos I’ve seen on YouTube. With each thing that I’ve experienced I took everything I was exposed into perspective and it just never really left my mind. I even thought about these involvements throughout my everyday life, making questions about what if. What I have to share with you, the reader, are my
