Live long!



A Finnish researcher was looking for a common denominator
for centenarians in Finland. He didn’t seem to find any. They
came from all possible backgrounds and represented all the
known social statuses and life-styles. The only two things that
he found to be common for all of them were a good sense
of humor and curiosity.
I was laughing about it and got curious about centenarians in
other countries.
The commercials tell us that people in the Caucasus mountains
live long because they eat yogurt, but the centenarians of Lenkoran,
Azerbaijan told the journalist that yogurt is not very popular there.
“I never eat it, “ Mirzahan Movlamov  , one of the longest ever lived
man said dismissively. “Never.”
I’m laughing and continuing my curious studies.
