he best one can hope for is to live to be 122, the recorded age of the oldest living individual, Madame Jeanne Calment. Madame Calment who died in
August, 1997, and far exceeded the average life expectancy of about 76 years.
But she was not alone, more and more people are now able to live longer, even into
their 100's.
The secret to living past 100 is unknown, but many may just be born to live to be a
centenarian. Exceptional longevity runs strongly in families. At least 50% of centenarians have parents or grandparents who also achieve very old age and many children of centenarians show marked delays in disease and mortality. So, if your parents or grandparents lived long lives, the chances are, you may be genetically predisposed to exceptional longevity.

Researchers know that while genetics play an important part, other factors such as
environment and lifestyle play a key role. “You could have Mercedes-Benz genes,”
says Dr. Bradley Wilcox, of the Pacific Health Research Institute, “but if you never
change the oil, you are not going to last as long as a Ford Escort that you take good
care of. Those who have healthier genes and live healthier lives those guys really
survive for a long time.” Centenarians studied in The New England Centenarian
Study had a number of characteristics in common:
1.Nearly all lean
2.Smoking history is rare
3.Better able to handle stress
4.Many had no mental decline
Your life span depends upon healthy behaviors including a diet conductive to being
lean, not smoking and exercise. Keeping the body well with diet and exercise wards
off killers and markedly delays or even prevents diseases such as; heart attack,
stroke, cancer and diabetes.
And the longer you remain healthy, the better chances are that you will possibly
escape age-associated diseases. In the New England Centenarian Study, 90% of
those who achieved the 100 year mark were functionally independent the vast
majority of their lives up until the age of 92 years old and 75% were the same at an
average age of 95 years. This disproves the perception that “the older you get the
sicker you get”.
A recent Time magazine article summed up the lessons from centenarians best: “Eat
sensibly. Keep walking. Keep knitting. If you can't keep friends, make new ones.
Plan so much invigorating work that there's just not time to die. And not regret when
you do.”

To All Of Us Who Survived
Aging and Physical Activity
The 40's, 50's, 60's, And 70's
Aging is a normal process of life. Many people consider
aging as a disease but it is not. Aging begins the moment that
each one of us was born. It is such a blessing to live and experience the aging process. However, we cannot ignore the fact that
as we grow older our body goes through so many changes and
some of them are not pleasant. Older people tend to develop
more aches and pains but the good news is that physical activity
has the potential to change the way we age. Some of the problems experienced by elders are actually the result of not remaining physical active.
Regular physical activity has beneficial effects on a variety of
health related outcomes. It is important to include physical
activity as part of your regular routine since it can prevent a
broad range of health problems and diseases. Benefits include;
reducing the risk of developing high blood pressure, preventing
diabetes, coronary heart disease and obesity, as well as avoiding
bone loss and fractures after the menopause. Physical activity
need not be intensive to bring benefits. Try simple walking and
range of motion when performing the activities of daily living.
Walk instead of ride, sweep instead of sitting and stand up to
change the channels. Keep as active as you can be whether at
home or in a nursing home. Physical activity can definitely
improve your quality of life and level of functioning.

Success Stories
T
hese generations have produced some of the best risk-takers,
problem solvers and inventors ever. These past fifty years
have been an explosion of new ideas. We had freedom, failure, success and responsibility, and we learned how to deal with it.
First we survived being born to mothers who smoked and drank
while they carried us. Our baby cribs were covered with bright colored lead0based paints. We had no child proof lids on medicine bottles, lids, or cabinets. When we rode our bikes we rode with no helmets. We rode in cars with no seatbelts or air bags. We drank from a
garden hose, not a bottle. We ate cupcakes, bread and butter, and
soda with sugar in it, but we weren't over weight because we were
always outside playing. We would leave home in the morning and
play all day, no one was able to reach us but that was okay. We didn't
have play station, x-boxes, no video games at all, or 99 channels on
cable, no DVD's no computers no internet to chat. We had friends
and we went outside to find them. We fell out of trees, got cuts, and
broke bones and teeth, and there were no lawsuits from these accidents. We made up games with sticks and balls, ate worms and
although we were told it would happen, we didn't put out any eyes,
nor did the worms live in us forever. Little league had tryouts and not
everyone made the team. Those who didn't had to learn to deal with
disappointment, imagine that! The idea of a parent bailing us out if
we broke the law was unheard of. They actually sided with the law!
If you are one of these people CONGRATULATIONS!
You might want to share this with others who have had the luck to
grow up kids, before lawyers and the government regulated our lives
for our own good.

Therapy Notes
We asked one of the residents what her secret on aging was and
she didn't hesitate to say "lots of happiness, love, and good health".
She went on to say that the simple things in life are the most important. “When you have it,” she said “you need to know how to appreciate it and keep it.” For example, sitting down to have dinner with
your family is something that you should do everyday and learn how
to appreciate those moments. In return, you are teaching your children how important it is to take time and appreciate each other's conversation. It also has the added benefit of keeping the family in tune
with what is going on in each other's day.
Thinking positively is a great tool to appreciating the simple
things in your life. Stop, and take a moment to close your eyes,
breathe deeply and think about what you are grateful for today. Or,
visualize doing something well, see yourself as a star and you will
soon be one. The sound of a friend's voice can be very uplifting.
Remember If someone is feeling uneasy or low, a two-minute conversation can make their day. Just share a funny story, say “I love
you” or “have a good day”. So take the time to appreciate your family and friends, be happy and it will show in everything you do.

Q. I have read that a diet high in antioxidants can
improve your age expectancy. Is this true, and if
so, what foods are good sources of antioxidants?
A. True! Scientists from the U.S. National
Institutes of Health and Japan's Ministry of
Health conducted the 1976 Okinawa Centenarian
Study to discover why Elderly Okinawans have
among the lowest mortality rates in the world.
One discovery was that their diets are low in fat
and salt, and high in fruits and vegetables packed
with fiber and antioxidant substances that protect against cancer, heart disease and stroke.
They consume more soy than any other population on earth: 60-120 grams a day, compared to 3050 grams for the average Japanese, 10 for Chinese
and virtually 0 grams for the average American.
Soy is rich in flavonoids- antioxidants strongly
liked to low rates of cancer. This may be one of
many reasons why the annual death rate from cancer in Okinawa is far below the U.S. rate.
The following are natural sources of antioxidant
vitamins:
Vitamin A
Mango, broccoli, carrots, tomato juice, sweet potato,
pumpkin, beef liver
Vitamin C
Spinach, broccoli, snow peas, tomato juice, mango,
orange, grapefruit juice, strawberries, red bell peppers
Vitamin E
Polyunsaturated plant oils, wheat germ, sunflower
seeds, avocado, sweet potato, shrimp, cod
Selenium
Seafood, meats, grains
Vitamin B6
Bananas, watermelons, tomato juice, broccoli,
spinach, potatoes, white rice, chicken breast
Vitamin B12
Meats, poultry, fish, milk, eggs, shellfish
Folic Acid
Tomato juice, green be peasans, broccoli, spinach,
lady's finger, lentils, black eyed peas
T
he Italian island of Sardinia is
known as a wellspring of longevity.
The island has about one-hundredthirty-five centenarians for every
one-million people. In other western
countries, the average is about seventy-five centenarians for every onemillion people. Could their secret to
long life be in the wine?
In 2002 British scientist Roger Corder
spent two weeks tramping around the
Sardinian hills drinking wine -- and devising
a delicious theory about the Sardinians' longevity: At 2,000 feet, the altitude of some of
the vineyards he studied, grapes protect their
skins against the higher levels of UV radiation by pumping out more polyphenols, the
same antioxidants that promote heart health
in humans. Rustic pressing methods that
leave in skin and seeds longer further
enhance the polyphenol count. Add it up and
these wines may be hitting a kind of
polyphenol bonus round recently discovered
at Harvard, in which the compounds stimulate sirtuins, the same mysterious lifeextending enzymes sparked by calorie reduction.
One commercial winery already has a "To
100" label. It's not sold in the U.S., but some
that are include: Argiolas Costera, the most
readily available Sardinian wine, it's not
grown at especially high altitude, but it's a balanced, sophisticated exemplar of the island's
puckery, mossy, earthy-tannic reds. Gabbas
From Oliena, just south of the centenarian
hotbed of Núoro. Catena Cabernet
Sauvignon not from the island at all but from
Mendoza in Argentina, this was the highpolyphenol wine Corder was studying before
he stumbled across Sardinia. Madiran is
Corder's next stop. Can it be just coincidence
that this Pyrenees region has more men
above the age of 75 than anywhere else in
France?

Latinos may have earlier
age of onset for Alzheimer's
U.S. Latinos with Alzheimer's develop their first symptoms of the disease, on average,
at a significantly younger age than Anglos (white non-Latinos), according to a report
in the May Archives of Neurology.
Researchers documented the earlier age of onset in a two-part study at five federally funded Alzheimer's Disease Centers
with experience evaluating Spanish speakers. The first part of the study analyzed age-of-onset data from a large database. In
the second part, investigators evaluated Latino and Anglo individuals with Alzheimer's disease and then conducted a standardized interview with a family member to estimate when symptoms first appeared. The second phase of the study found
that Latinos, on average, developed their first symptoms nearly seven years earlier than Anglos.
“These findings clearly point to the need for extensive, systematic epidemiological studies targeting the U.S. Latino population, our largest and fastest growing minority group, says Maria Carrillo, Ph.D., Alzheimer's Association director, medical
and scientific affairs. “The data also suggest that Alzheimer's Disease Centers across the country need to commit time and
resources to meet the needs of this population, a huge undertaking but clearly required based on the projected numbers.”
The study did not uncover reasons for the difference in age of onset. According to the authors, one possible explanation is
that Latinos were more likely to have high blood pressure and diabetes, both conditions associated with an increased risk of
developing Alzheimer's.
Another possibility is that the stress involved in moving to a new country and living as an ethnic immigrant may make
non-memory symptoms associated with the earliest stages of Alzheimer's, such as anxiety and depression, more noticeable
in Latinos.
The researchers point out one caution about the data: participants in the second-phase, direct evaluation part of the study
represent a “convenience sample” of individuals who happened to consult a specialty clinic and not a group scientifically
selected to be representative of the entire U.S. Population.
Just About Everything You Need to Keep Fit
There are some 70,000 of them in the U.S. alone people 100-plus years old, who make up the fastestgrowing age group of Americans and whose numbers have tripled in just the last two decades. Medical
researchers are increasingly finding that significant health benefits including disease prevention result
from relatively simple dietary and nutritional changes combined with low time investment, low impact
physical activities.
A summary of suggestions I found for all of us to live by include: no smoking. The next best thing for lifelong good health is exercise, going to the doctor regularly for check-ups, and eating a balanced, varied diet.
Don't ever retire both your body and mind and put more money aside for your later years. If you get discouraged, think of Astronaut John Glenn, who went back into space at age 77. Stimulate your mind…it
needs as much exercise as your body.
Probably best of all, build close, warm friendships. Everyone needs social companionship. People with
strong family and spiritual commitments seem to weather all stresses more easily, and they live longer and
happier lives.

Healthy Food for Living Longer
I
f you want to eat foods for living longer,
consider a plant-based diet.
We all know about the kinds of foods that may
contribute to shortened, less healthy lives. Pork
rinds, charred meat and lard, these kinds of
things. But are there foods for living longer?
"What we know is that diets rich in fruits and
vegetables appear to
be much healthier,
leading to less
chronic disease and
lower healthcare
costs, but it's less
clear how any
specific dietary items
affect longevity,"
says Hubert Warner,
PhD, at the National
Institute of Aging.
Warner also says that
not eating much food
at all, ever, may
promote living
longer, while also
making life decidedly
less enjoyable.
"Many animal studies show that calorie
restriction, meaning a permanent, low-calorie
diet, can lengthen life in the laboratory”.
So if you're looking for foods for living longer,
a plant-based diet -- something very similar to
what most of us would consider a vegetarian
diet -- seems to be the ticket, these experts say.
Barnard cites a study, "Ten Years of Life. Is It a
Matter of Choice?" as an example of this
evidence. In the study, researchers looked
at 34,192 non-Hispanic, white Seventh
Day Adventists over age 30.
"Researchers like to study the Adventists
because they are nearly all nonsmokers,
they avoid alcohol, and are mostly
vegetarians," says Barnard. Roughly
30% of the study subjects were
vegetarians; about
20% were semivegetarians,
eating meat less
than once per
week. The
research showed
that vegetarian
men and women
had "an expected
age of death at
83.3 and 85.7
years,
respectively."
Men lived 7.28
years longer than
the average
American man,
and women lived
4.42 years longer
than the average American woman.
"This gives Adventists a higher life
expectancy than any other formally
described population," the study authors'
wrote. Ten extra years, without resorting
to calorie restriction. What we see over
and over again is that vegetarian or nearvegetarian diets over a lifetime yield a
five- to 10-year lengthening of life.

August is the height of the summer time in the temperate zone of
the Northern Hemisphere. The longest days of the year is passed,
but the hot days remain. In the northern regions and mountains,
cool nights and early frosts lets one know that the summer is about
to come to an end. In the Southern Hemisphere, August means the
winter will soon be over.

hundreds of guests at important weddings, christenings or birthdays. They ate a bit, danced a bit, drank a little and sang a lot. A
rollicking shared experience... a feast of aloha. A Hawaiian luau
is a fun affair... casual, informal, abounding in merriment. No
age barrier here. The crowd is mixed, Island-style. It will be
held on Wednesday, August 17 a1 2:00 PM.
•Birthday Bash will be held on Friday, August 26 at 2:15 PM with
Joy Martonee.
The impetus for a National Grandparents Day originated with
Marian McQuade, a housewife in Fayette County, West Virginia.
Her primary motivation was to champion the cause of lonely
elderly in nursing homes. She also hoped to persuade grandchildren to tap the wisdom and heritage their grandparents could provide.
President Jimmy Carter, in 1978, proclaimed that National
Grandparents Day would be celebrated every year on the first
Sunday after Labor Day. September 11 is National Grandparent's
Day, and we would like to invite all children and grandchildren of
our residents to come and visit. If possible, please send pictures of
the resident's grandchildren so they can be displayed for the
month of September.
Special Events for September
•Labor Day is a national legal holiday that is over 100 years old.
Over the years, it has evolved from a purely labor union celebration into a general "last fling of summer" festival. The
Floridean will be celebrating with a cookout on Monday,
September 5 at noon.
•Outing to Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden. Fairchild's is one
of the world's preeminent botanic gardens, with extensive collections of rare tropical plants including palms, cycads, flowering trees and vines. Established in 1938, the 83-acre garden is
among the region's most popular visitor attractions and offers a

Postscript
“To me, old age is always 15 years older than I am.”
-Bernard M. Baruch
At a Triathlon, the racers have big bold numbers
written in permanent marker on their calves that indicate their race number and age. It is entertaining to
see someone, try to guess their age and then look at
the answer on the back of their legs. Most, except
those who have been exposed to too much sun, defy
their age in years. Men well into their 50's look no
more than 35. (I used to tease my once single sister,
that they should also display “marital status” so we
could really size the men up.)
It goes without saying that triathletes naturally
maintain healthy lifestyles which include exercise
and proper diet.

In addition to the old “diet and exercise” secret, a
positive mental attitude is a key ingredient to long
life. A high level of satisfaction with life, feelings of
value and importance and the ability to accept change
are what separates the centenarians from the rest. So
add this advice if you want to make it to your 100's: be
happy in the place you are in, find satisfaction in
everyday occurrences and don't sweat the small stuff.
Remember, you are only as old
as you feel and your age is just a
number. (on the back of your leg)
