THE DELANY SISTERS. Sadie lived to be 109 and Bessie 104.
I've written about 5 post already about THE DELANY SISTERS. So impressed by their lifestyle and long lives they lived. I own a few books by them, have read newspaper articles as well as watched YOU TUBE videos and watched a movie about them.
My imagination has some part in interpreting their life sketches.
At any rate, I know they did something very well to have lived as long as they did and be in very good shape as they were.
IN A NUT SHELL:
1) Christian women.
2) Sadie and Bessie lived in their own HOME that they were in charge of.
3) Boiled their water before drinking.
4) Drank cold water before taking garlic and cod liver oil and then when taking garlic and cod liver. 2 glasses of cold water together.
5) Drank hot water afterwards.
6) Exercised before eating Breakfast.
7) Took supplements and vitamins.
8) Took care of themselves.
9) Washed their hands when entering their HOME.
IN A NUT SHELL I gathered this information and will share.
1. Keep your own calendar. The most important thing in your life is your time, and nothing will make you feel as helpless as having other people run it for you.
2. Manage your own money, but be careful about it. Pay your own bills and balance your checkbook for as long as you can. When the time comes that someone has to take a hand in your finances, make sure you understand everything he does. If other people take charge of your money, it's easy to lose control of your life.
3. Have your own doctor, who answers to you. If you don't, when the time comes that you get mixed up with hospitals, they'll treat you like a fool. You're bound to lose your health at some point, but you don't have to lose your dignity, too.
4. Don't depend too much on any one person. If you have a lot of helpers, you can be sure that someone will always be available when you need it.
5. Don't be too proud to accept your limitations. The hardest thing is discovering that you can't do everything the way you used to. But make sure you hire folks who do what you want. It's still your house, and you're still the boss!
As I have been sorting through old papers, I came across an article about the Delany Sisters both living into their 100s.
The Vitamins and supplements they took were Vitamin A,
Vitamin B Complex,
Vitamin C,
Vitamin D,
Vitamin E,
Zinc,
Tyrosine,
morning garlic
and cod liver oil.
They'd take their cod liver oil and garlic before Breakfast.
A glass of water before taking the cod liver and garlic.
A glass of cold water after and a glass of hot water.
They'd exercise then eat a Breakfast consisting of a scrambled egg, hard roll, some fruit, and oatmeal.
Lunch was a larger meal where they had beef, chicken or fish.
Supper was a large vanilla milkshake.
