At the age of 108, what is the secret of Ding Qiaomei's longevity?

That morning, the author came to Ding Qiaomei's house, and she had just put down the tea bowl she had drunk.

Teochew people love Kung Fu tea, and Ding Qiaomei is no exception. "The habit of drinking tea is to not move." Ding Qiaomei told the author that when he was young, he loved to drink tea. Now after three meals a day, it is even more necessary to drink a bowl of tea.

In fact, in addition to the back of the ear, Ding Qiaomei is very healthy and mentally sufficient. Although at the age of 102, Ding Qiaomei was blind due to natural and physiological reasons, she would walk around the house every day on crutches. "If someone talks to her, she can talk for a day without feeling sleepy." Zhang Yangliu said.

Talking about the secret of the old man's longevity, Zhang Yangliu said that his maternal uncle did not die until he was 99 years old, which made him have to believe in the power of the "longevity gene".

In addition, Zhang Yangliu said that healthy eating habits are also one of the factors in the longevity of her mother Ding Qiaomei.

"Although she is older, her mother's appetite is still good. If there is anything we want to eat, we are 'responsive'. Zhang Yangliu said that Ding Qiaomei is not picky in her diet, eating three meals a day at regular intervals, and often eating two bowls of porridge or porridge. Side dishes are also meat and vegetarian collocation, the elderly often eat pork belly to nourish the stomach, but also love to eat brine meat and bitter melon, kale and other green vegetables. "We'll stew the meat and chop it up so she can eat it with her mouth."

In addition to the satisfaction of diet, the spiritual aspect of the elderly can also be satisfied. Ding Qiaomei said that the children of the children and grandchildren will accompany him, and the eldest nephew will come from Guangzhou every Friday night to visit and chat with himself.

"My mother's personality is very gentle." Zhang Yangliu said that this personality also affects the younger generations. All along, there has never been a family conflict in the extended family, and he and his third brother Zhang Yanghui take turns to take care of her daily life every half a month. He believes that the harmonious atmosphere of the family and the intimate care of children and grandchildren are also one of the secrets of the longevity of the elderly.
