Live to 90?! (St. Patty’s Day Secret)
If you’re like me, you will do just about anything to live to 90 or longer.
That’s why you never miss your evening walk… always take your supplements… and load up on fresh fruits and veggies.
But if you’re not participating in a particular Irish tradition… you may not live to see those 90 candles.
Your mainstream doc will tell you NEVER to do this… but new science shows that it can DOUBLE your chances of living to a ripe old age.
And today is the BEST day to start.
Raise your glass for a St. Patrick’s Day cheers… because this longevity secret is drinking beer.
In a new study, researchers at the Maastricht University Medical Centre in The Netherlands tracked the drinking habits and longevity of more than 5,000 men and women.
At the end, they found that women and men who enjoyed daily beer were 40 percent more likely to reach 90 years old compared to those who were teetotalers or rarely drank.
In fact, 34 percent of women and 16 percent of men were able to reach or exceed 90 years old.
When researchers compared abstainers with daily drinkers, they found that women and men drinking five to ten grams of alcohol daily were more likely to reach 90 years old.
This is around the same amount as a small glass of wine or a half-pint of beer.
So feel free to raise your pint of Guinness to celebrate today (and every day) in moderation.
Doing so just might extend your life.
