Topic Reading-Vol.2443-12/19/2018
Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Gardening could be a hobby that helps you live 100 years
Has the secret of longevity revealed? A study to five blue-zones, places where people live longer, found that gardening is another common practice among the residents along with other more-known factors, such as social supports, moderate daily exercises, and healthy diet.
Indeed, people who garden tend to grow plants, vegetables and/or fruits they like. So, they naturally enjoy eating fresh seasonal vegetables. Gardening, like farming, also requires daily or regular care that requires moderate outdoor exercise. Furthermore, those gardeners, like old-time farmers, often gather and exchange what they’ve harvested. Gardening seems like an all-inclusive activity for longevity, doesn’t it?
If you check yesterday’s Topic Reading Vol.2443, there is a 107-year-old man who has been a hairdresser for 96 years. Though he doesn’t do outdoor gardening, he does use scissors to cut and trim his customers’ hair indoor. What he does sounds similar to what gardeners do, doesn’t it?
Enjoy reading and think if you enjoy these four pillars of longevity, physical activity, mental engagement, social connection, and healthy diet.
