January 17 "golden girl" Betty White celebrated her 96th birthday … The American actress is in great shape and full of vitality. She assures that the secret of her longevity is in inexhaustible optimism, as well as in her readiness to enjoy every day she lives. And Betty is sure that you cannot deny yourself gastronomic pleasures. She prefers fries, hot dogs, and even a glass of vodka over boring proper nutrition.
During her career, the American actress has played in dozens of comedy films and TV series, many remember her for her role as a maid in the series "Santa Barbara", but her participation in the film "Golden Girls" brought her real fame at home.
Birthday girl Betty White at 96 is eager to share the secrets of her youth and talks about her formula for success. She believes that one should not limit oneself in everything in order to live to a venerable age in full health. Her own example is proof of that. The nutritional boom that promises longevity, in her opinion, is just another advertising gimmick, which she has seen in her lifetime. Betty White is ready to challenge the most indisputable, at first glance, claims of nutritionists.
Never skip breakfast, have a balanced lunch, don't overdo it with dinner
Betty White, in an interview with Harper's Bazaar in 2014, admitted that she never paid attention to breakfast.
Researchers from the American Heart Association have reported that 27% of people who skip breakfast are at risk of heart disease. However, Betty was fortunate enough to be one of those who were not included in this number. At 96, she has never suffered from heart disease.
Betty often skips breakfast, and is limited to a sandwich for lunch, which is judgmental among nutritionists. It so happened due to the fact that Betty still does not always have time for a full lunch, she is constantly at work, on the set, and when she has free time, she goes to the Los Angeles Zoo as a volunteer.
Eat lots of greens, fresh food, and don't drink sugary drinks
According to American research, those who abuse fried snacks are at risk of premature death. The World Health Organization claims that eating meat can lead to diabetes and metabolic disorders.
"French fries, hot dog and Diet Coca-Cola are my perfect lunch," says Betty, not listening to the scientists. She is sure that you should not deprive yourself of the opportunity to eat with pleasure those products that you like.
A glass of red wine a day is good for you
Scientists claim that a glass of red wine will not harm women's health at all. Betty White thinks that you can drink a glass of vodka with lemon. In the evenings, she usually drinks alcoholic cocktails with her golden retriever Pontiac.
The secret to longevity
Many centenarians who have crossed the 100-year mark claim that their secret is not to lose optimism, not to retire and not to deny themselves small pleasures, such as a glass of wine or even something stronger.
Betty has a great sense of humor and tries to see the positive in any situation. She finds the strength to do volunteer work, helping animals.
