Long-livers eat two or three times a day, rarely drink, and do not overindulge in fatty and sweet foods.
90% of their diet consists of plant foods.
Russian nutritionist Elena Solomatina told us what else long-livers eat.
The nutritionist advised eating foods rich in iron: meat and meat by-products (liver, heart), egg yolks, seafood, green vegetables, dried fruits, wheat germ.
Those with low iron levels in their blood have the least chance of living a long life, said Solomatina.
She also advised not to forget about breakfast and to chew food thoroughly.
In conclusion, the speaker noted that longevity is 20-40% dependent on genetics, writes Vechernyaya Moskva .
