Very interesting. And notably, none of the centenarians was particularly thin. Rather, several had extra padding.

Makes one wonder whether a few extra pounds in extreme old age might be beneficial.

In this short video on Centenarians and Super centenarians it mentions

that one thing they all had in common is that they were really thin

all their life.

Hi folks:

I tried to locate the list of characteristics common to the centenarians identified in the New England Centenarian Study. I searched their website but couldn't find it.

I do remember though that religion (faith, whatever) was not on the list, as if it had been I would certainly have remembered it.

As I like also to point out, exercise is not on that list either ;; ^ )))

However, having close friends who drop in on a regular basis certainly **was** on the list, and that does seem to me to be a characteristic of a couple of 'somewhat weird' religious groups I happen to have been familiar with. So that 'connection' makes sense. They certainly have a remarkable sense of community which, I would think, must be beneficial with regard to aging.

This was very interesting. Thank you. I certainly

identified with the Glasgow people-I am fighting

various inflammatory ailments-vicious arthritis in

particular, that's aggravated intensely by sugar, and

I am quite young for it...I think CR may really be

offsetting this tendancy though since I've all but

eliminated the daily sugar foods (I'm of English

parents, who are definitely from that industrial age

legacy-maybe not crowded tenements, but industrial

towns). I really have something to think about. I

thought I was doing something wrong-it may all be

genetic. Thank you for the post.
