Awesome story. Although I'm still a couple of years shy of 50, there are a few things he said that I have already noticed and concur with. The first is his mention of a daily protein shake to compensate for poor protein synthesis as you age. For a couple of years I've been having a scoop of protein power in milk both before and after a sailing session, and it definitely has a noticeable effect on the recovery of tired muscles. His comments on fat intake are also interesting, and this seems to be a view that the global medical fraternity is slowly coming around on, with opinions of full cream milk and butter beginning to change. The other thing is strength training, which isn't body building, but simple strength training, has so many benefits for bone density, increased metabolism, and a host of others. Lastly, cutting out on sugar...the white death. I think he's got just about everything spot on.
Flavoured yoghurt is full of sugar. Try some plain natural yoghurt one day.
I've got my kids off the sugar train, and now they refuse to drink soft drink or eat flavoured yoghurt, etc., because they think they taste disgusting.
Sugar is blergh! The older I get the more blergh it is.
I think M&Ms really showed me the way.
How? Someone left a pack at work in a bowl and one afternoon, around 3pm when everyone gets tired, I found the bowl of M&Ms and had a few. And then a few more, and a few more. I got the sugar rush for about twenty minutes and then crashed. Hard. In fact I felt pretty ****ty for the rest of the day until I went to bed.
You can repeat this yourself. Intentionally have a cheap sugar rush around mid afternoon. Watch the crash. Notice how ****e you feel. I've been more and more off sugar ever since that day. I am "in tune" with sugar and it's cheap come down.
Yeah dead animal flesh and fat oh and lots of dairy that is the key!!
Far out this world is educated so wrong. I my self.
I can understand people eating meat. I no longer do but I get it. But why the **** would anyone want to eat or drink dairy based products. We are the only thing on this planet that drinks the milk of another animal that is wholly produced by this animal to feed its young to get it as big and fat as possible to help its growth.
Opps here come the red thunbs
What would cows do with all that milk if it wasn't for farmers emptying their udders twice a day?

We are the only animal that has managed to more than double its average life expectancy over the past hundred years, so comparisons with other animals seem largely irrelevant.
The simple answer to your question is that we need the calcium and dairy is a very good way of getting it.

The life expectancy of animals in their natural state has not changed or fluctuated throughout history because they are incapable of consciously manipulating their environment and their habits.
The life expectancy of humans has always fluctuated according to life style and the environment they live in. So you could quite as easily argue that the same humans whose life expectancy has doubled over the last century had managed to reduce their life expectancy by half prior to that by adopting, for example, insanitary high density living habits and poor diet.
Dairy is not a good way of providing calcium. It is a good way to produce snot.
i like cheese, i think its nice ,
when i eat cheese i have it twice,
i like the taste, i like the smell,
i like cheese, i think it's swell

Nah, cream and blue cheese just rock! We can get calcium form any number of sources. You're still living in the '80's.

I think even then, you don't try and stack the deck against you. One of my grandfathers died from emphysema/lung cancer at 84. The other died from a heart problem at 63. The one that died at 84 probably would have lived another 20 years if it wasn't for the smoking. He was very fit and very active. Good genes or bad, smoking is going to get you and you won't accept it until its too late.
Reading between the lines, is this 96 year old only taking protein shakes or also taking HGH or steroids? I suspect that either of these would make your physical age retreat a bit. Its just that there are not enough 80 year olds trying them to really tell you what effect they have on someone that old.

It was part of a government inituitive program they trialed in townsville years ago to try make everyones eyes not be so close together. It did not really work the locals just used it as a tool for a great excuse to get out of trouble when the spouse finds you inbreeding.
