“The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength, labor, and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.”
— Psalm 90:10 (KJV)
Bernando LaPallo has a lot to say about strength, labor, and sorrow having lived to 114 years old and still rolls on like old man river.
LaPallo told the media outlet, KNVX, “My mother, 105, she went to sleep. My grandmother, 107, she went to sleep. My father, 91, he went to sleep.”
“Everybody asks, ‘What’s your secret?’ I say obedience and moderation,” LaPallo posited.
The centurion who lived in New York for 90 before moving to Arizona reportedly told KNXV that he has never been sick.
In terms of food, he recommended plenty of garlic, honey, cinnamon, and chocolate.
And another interesting secret to longevity … he says his father told him to put olive oil on the bottom of your feet so you don’t “rust.”
He also boils his water before drinking it.
