At the same time, Kalman regularly consumed olive oil in large quantities and called this the secret of her longevity.

But he drank drinks of his own making from medicinal herbs. Eyvazov ate the simplest food.

Japanese woman Kane Tanaka, who lived to be 119 years old, had a big sweet tooth and claimed that her love for chocolate and coffee helped her live so long.

American Sarah Knauss, who lived the same amount of time, loved to eat chocolate, nuts and chips.
