My grandpa is 96 years old and never owned a car. He rides his bike a few miles almost daily. His diet includes a lot of pork, some fish, veggies, and a crazy amount of bread. He has been lean all his life. He worked hard in the farm, most of his food was from it. So no proceeded food, a lot of physical activities and low stress. Genetics may have something to do with it, my ancestors old passed away around 100 years of age, but the lifestyle is a major factor.

Bread is a processed food.

Indeed, bread is a processed food. Would you elaborate on your comment? I can understand it in one of two ways: it's pedantic with nothing more implied; it's implying there's no meaningful distinction between bread and, say, Kraft Macaroni & Cheese, Doritos, or TV dinners. Or do you mean something else?

I know, that's that's why I put it separate. I should have said "the only processed food he eats is bread".
