The Island Where People Forget to Die

Olives, hummus, and sourdough bread.

Herbal teas, coffee and wine.

Goat's milk and honey.

Wild greens, beans, and olive oil.

Work in the fields, gathering it all.

A nap in the afternoon, and plenty of sex.

This is a recipe for a long life.

Don't forget lots of socializing and a tight-knit community. And a lack of access to commercial processed foods. Temptation is a powerful thing!

socializing is not part of the recipe. There are plenty of monks who live a life of solidute but follow the recipe above and still live to tell the tale

I think that's also on the list of requirements (for living to an old age). And peace of mind.
