Good evening friends! Today I want to tell you about healthy eating. Well, did you know that people which live in the Okinawa  (small fishing village on one of the islands of Okinawa, Japan) have very big lifespan? Btw this island has the healthiest concentration of centenarians in the whole world! People live so long here because they have a healthy low-fat diet. They eat slowly to savour their food and they always  stay active. In the outskirts of the village there, facing the sea, is an old stone marker and the Japanese characters engraved on it mean that at 70 human is a child, at 80 he is a young man or woman and if at 90 someone from heaven invites him over he should tell them to go away and come back when he is 100! Moreover it is known that life threatening complaints such as cancer, diabetes or heart diseases are very rare in Okinawa. It seems that Okinawans not only live happier and longer, they live better.
By making simple lifestyle changes you can increase your longevity too! At first you should eat healthy food such as fresh fish, sweet potato, spring onions and other fresh locally grown vegetables. You can try tofu- a soya product high in protein and vitamins. To have a healthy diet you need to keep your servings under control.
Hope this information was useful!
Have a nice day x
