Scientists have assessed the eating habits of centenarians and found them to be extremely beneficial, reports the Daily Mail.

Habits of long-livers
Long-livers have dinner early and mostly with foods that are easy to digest.
It is recommended to finish dinner no later than 3 hours before going to bed.
A late and heavy dinner contributes to an increase in blood cholesterol levels.
This in turn leads to problems with blood pressure, blood vessels and the heart.
Scientists have also managed to find out that those who eat healthy foods are more likely than others to live to a ripe and healthy old age.
In addition to general advice on the benefits of vegetables, researchers recommend paying attention to legumes.
The diet must include whole grains, nuts and vegetable oil.
Let's not forget that in addition to a daily healthy diet, you should also maintain an active lifestyle.
