Diet Advice for Long Life, 113 Year Old Man Offers His Advice – But Is It Sound?

Walter Breuning (113 years old) offers his diet advice for long life.

Walter Breuning (113 years old) offers his diet advice for long life.

I just read a story about the oldest man in the world, and the advice he gives on diet and long life.  Walter is 113 years old and advises people that his strategy is not to eat dinner.  Walter has done well with his strategy, but progressive medicine does not agree.  Eating small amounts of food many times a day is best, and ‘starvation’ periods ends up causing you to actually overeat in the long run, ultimately resulting in weight gain for most people. 

One thing I do agree on, it’s best to leave your meal unfinished.  You’d be surprised at how easy it is to eat half your sandwich at lunch and still feel full enough to go about your afternoon.  Not only won’t you miss the rest of the sandwich, but you’ll actually feel so much better when you haven’t stuffed yourself.  You can find Walter’s story at:

    He is absoluteyl correct and imo could add some days of real fasting (eating nothing for 2-7 days) under his belt..He may feel and look even better!!! We are hardwired to fast. In our Paleo days we had to walk and go out to get our fare…This eating often is bull….. Makes no sense except to the mass mentality (brainwashed and ADDICTED) of constant grazing…Most of us sit on our lazy as…. all day in front of the computers or TV and even those who don’t..most likely have a ton of lard on their arses…
