My granny lived until 2 weeks before her 106 birthday. She had an incredibly youthful spirit who confessed she never felt old a day in her life. She still danced weekly a year before she died, & two months before she passed one of her great great grandchildren told her that she could go if she was tired her response was, “I’ll go meet Jesus on my time & my dime!” She was still volunteering up to a week before she died. Absolutely inspirational!!

[shartmann]

my grandmother lived to 103... and only had decline in the last few weeks. no alcohol or smoking. She was into gardening, cooking food and eating at home. simple small healthy meals.

So true about happiness
At 75 still working as a software engineer I'm happier than ever before
I do about 20 minutes a day of mindfulness meditation and an hour exercise each day

[CarolCarolDoddDodd]

My grandmother died at 102 at home. She drove her car until age 96 when she backed into a car in the parking lot of the post office, came home, put her keys up and said she was done, for us to come get the car.
She was making wreaths for the church doors and baking pies for the “old people” as she used to say, until she was 98. She was a little bit of a stoic. She was very much a strong believer and Christian. She read her Bible every single day and sat on the same pew in the same church for 100 years. My grandfather, the love of her life, passed away 40 years before she did. She lived alone until my aunt came back to live with her for the last 10 years.
My grandmother worked in the yard every day and was very proud of her flowers. She walked to the graveyard ( about 1 mile each way) every day to visit my Granddaddy. She never drank or smoked and lived a very full, but very sedate and calm (very appropriate and “old timey ladylike”) life.
She was a great cook and whenever we went to visit we ate the most glorious Southern cuisine you have ever tasted. She was kind to everyone.
I asked her one time how she lived so long and was so healthy and her response was, “Because I get up and go—- every single day, even on the days I don’t feel like it.”
Hope that gives you some clues, because if you are here and reading the comments… you’re like me and trying to live as long and as well as you can!

I am just hitting 60 and life is great! I went plant based vegan a few years ago and just joined a gym feeling I have tons of energy. More advice, keep working, buy a kindle and read what tickles you and find yourself hobbies and activities that make you smile! ENJOY LIFE 'cause you earned it! I also took a hitch hiker (my wife!) for the ride. And most of all be an example for your love ones!

Love this episode. My grandmother wanted to live to over a 100. She made 98 years. I want to try follow her on that journey of longevity. I am 61 now. Survived thyroid cancer at 33 years old. Stopped smoking 25 years ago. I try to do all the right things. Longevity is mostly determined by your lifestyle habits over a long period of time.

[JayH]

At 57yrs I have allowed myself to be persuaded for nearly 30yrs to half-attempt and silently half-live live the way that fits with my views, beliefs and values…time to find that inner strength and ignore how difficult and uncomfortable it makes others, or worry about others who have different values! Time to stand up and support myself and pass the lack of comfort to those connected to it and let myself thrive and be proud of my choices 😜

[stevesalinda]

Once again an outstanding episode Rich! So so blessed to have this wisdom available. At 65 and running 75 miles per week I'm resonating so well with what your guests have so eloquently spoken about. Blown away by Mike Fremont and he definitely has motivated me for years to come. Thanks again Rich for one of the greatest podcasts out there.

[carolamendoladanca]

After searching for the "holy grail" of longevity I packed myself up at the end of 2019 and spent a week in the Blue Zone of Sardinia and traveled with a research scientist for a week. What I saw and learned was astounding. Most of what is written about this area is true and some of what is written is for commerical purposes. I especially like this Master Class becasue it goes even deeper into the what we are learning.

[tappersuzie]

Yes, David Sinclair - it pays dividends to take excellent care of one's health. I started at 23 when I saw MS taking apart my beautiful mother. So for me its been over 40 years - not perfect, but persistent and primarily putting best health practices first. I've hardly seen an MD all these years. I am grateful to God and grateful to the warriors for natural health.

[manikamonkeymindmiddlewaym]

BLUE ZONES CAN BE right where u are...with a practice which includes, meditation, nutrition plant based exclusive & majority raw, activities daily to strengthen your body, yoga, gardening, living a meaningful happy life, play time with pets & friends & of course removing yourself from needless stresses. Love hearing more on this thru u today.

[vhughesabs]

A continuous thank you Rich Roll.... your book, your wisdom, your dedication to passing on hope. It reaches farther than you may know.

[heidizee]

Favorite part—Mike Fremont’s laugh…filled with mirth and joy and love for life. What a gem to have at the end of this terrific episode!

[JordanPike]

My 32 and my view on aging has been depressing on a daily basis for years. Limiting and feeling like it's gonna all be over soon. That changes today. I'm excited to age gracefully and I truly believe my best and happiest year are ahead of me! Thank you for sharing this Rich and really look forward to listening to the rest of that convo with the 100 year old legend!

[HeibesHealth]

I really enjoyed the bit with Mike Fremont. What an inspiration. I can’t wait to see the full pod.

You are what you read, eat, watch, and listen to in connection to your life.

Just joined the PlantPower Meal Planner! I especially love that it throws everything from my grocery cart into my Amazon fresh account for delivery! Wow, what I time saver! I have been struggling with menopause weight for almost ten years, and diet and exercise were just not doing it, not even 20 hr intermittent fasting. I realized from watching your videos and others like Tom Bilyeu that it's what I am eating, NOT how much of it or the amount of exercise! I lift weights, hike, and walk 3-4 miles a day, including with my fasting and one meal a day and nothing! I feel better, I got muscle tone, but no banana when it came to weight loss.
About a week ago, I went all whole foods, high protein for a week, and lost 5 lbs! In one week! So I thought, how am I going to sustain this, and here you are with the PlantPower Meal Planner! God sent!
Amazing! I can't tell you how thrilled I am that you are doing all the work for me!

[michellechang]

Long fasting isn’t for most of people, it’s not only hard to do it also messes with the digestive system. I’m currently do 16/8 work for me, it’s easy, effective, keeping my A1C low, sleep well and I’m happy about doing it !

[haralddean]

This episode is brilliant! Lovely and so inspiring with Mike ending the show. So many kind and sincere people in this episode. So grateful for listen to this. Thanks for the work you do, Rich :-)

[doublell]

Rich, thank you for this wonderful, informative “Masterclass”, as it certainly is.
Then there is the reality of trying to find a primary care physician who 1) knows anything about any of the issues raised by these people, and 2) and who also accepts Medicare!
I have so many books now (written by your guests) that I could start a lending library! And while I have benefited ( age 83, female) greatly from the information you keep presenting, I would fall at the feet of a physician who asked me, “ how are you sleeping?”.. just for starters. I live in the Baltimore vicinity.. no paucity of “ excellent” medical facilities here. So what’s the deal? Just like we were (and still are!!) being denied effective early treatment ( and information!!) regarding Covid-19, no one does the blood tests, the life style assessment, etc, necessary to determine, for instance, how much of a factor stress is in your daily life.
So for the time being, Mr. Roll, you’re my Primary Care guy!
Seriously, if you could address this issue in any way, I personally would fall at your feet!
