How not to die before you get old
Chiako is active and healthy. She gets up at 7:00 a.m. every day and goes for brisk walk. Three times a
week, she plays gate-ball - a popular national sport- with her friends. There is nothing unusual about
this, except that Chiako is 102 years old. She is not alone- there are hundreds of centenarians who lead
healthy lives like this in Okinawa.
Okinawa is a group of Japanese islands between Japan and Taiwan. Near a beach, there is a large
stone with the following proverb engraved on it: “At 70 you are still a child; at 80 you are just a youth;
and at 90, if the ancestors invite you into heaven, ask them to wait until you are 100, and then you might
considered it."
Okinawans manage to stay slim in old age by eating a low-calorie diet which consists of three quarters
plant food and one quarter animal food. They eat seven servings of fruit and vegetables every day and
they stop eating when they are 80% full. They also keep physically active the natural way by dancing,
doing martial arts, walking, and gardening. In other words, they do the things they enjoy.
Okinawans have developed a stress-resistant personality. Nobody is in a hurry, timetables are non-
existent, and there is always tomorrow. Hundreds of people, both young and old, go to the beach every
day to watch the spectacular sunsets. In Okinawa there is always time to watch the sun set.
As well as large extended families, Okinawans have strong networks of friends. When someone is sick
and does not come to work, a neighbor will always knock on their door to find out how they are.
There's no magic pill. If you stay in shape, if you have good friends, a healthy diet, and a stress-free
lifestyle, you will live longer. It's as simple as that Ayudemen porfa es para enviar a horita
