I LOVE longevity, throws all the cautionary "theories" right out the window. I think attitude and inner happiness plays a far bigger role in staying arounbd than does counting how many chia sprouts you ate. Then again, 81 is not that old. Even fruit eaters sometimes make it to 80...(duck).

It is the quality of life that counts the most.
There are many SAD eaters making it past 90 years but many live in pain.
Former first lady Nancy Reagan dead at 94.

Define "quality of Life". What does Nancy Reagan have to do with anything?

There are things not visible that control your lifespan. Genetics is not visible but it makes a huge difference in life span. The food you eat and more thing affect the activation of 'long life' genes. Other foods, like kiwis, repair the age damaged chromosomes. Exercise and no animal fat restore telomeres length. The cells are the only things alive. The body is like an ant colony.

no animal fat restore telomeres length

Interesting because telomeres hold key to our longevity

Where is the scientific evidence or super simple explanation?

Swapping just 1% of saturated fat calories in our diet for anything else can add nearly a whole year of aging's worth of length onto our telomeres. Researchers have calculated how much of our telomeres we may shave off per serving of foods like ham or hot dogs, bologna, salami, or other lunch meats. Fish consumption was also significantly associated with shortened telomeres.

Someone should have told Bernando LaPollo not to eat fish 3 times a week as he only lived to be 114...

It seems to be questionable that Mr. LaPollo was as old as he claimed. Google "Incomplete or Fraudulent Cases" for a whole group of people claiming advanced ages, including, but not limited to, Mr. LaPollo. According to records, he died in December 2015.

Seems to be no shortage of people lined up in that racket. My favorite name from the lists so far is "Oberia Coffin".
