Quiches and golf: a century-old Brit shares the secret of longevity
Former British military man Keith Martin, who recently celebrated his 100th birthday, shared the secret to longevity. According to the man, his passion for golf and love for pies helped him to live to such a respectable age, RIA Novosti reports with reference to foreign media.
It is noted that the Briton was born in 1921 in Shropshire. In the early 1940s, he joined the Royal Air Force, and later took part in the Allied landings in Normandy.
The man said that in marriage he had two children. In addition, he has two grandchildren and three great-grandchildren. The veteran's daughter Carol revealed that his father is an avid golfer. In addition, she said, Keith became addicted to quiches and puddings in his old age. The Briton believes that he lived to be a hundred years old thanks to these very habits.
Recall that in June, a resident of the Australian city of Brisbane, Shirley Davison, who recently celebrated her 100th birthday, called good genes and fun the reason for longevity. And the American veteran of the Second World War, Andrew Slavonic, who turned 103, called the love of beer the secret of longevity.
