101-Year-Old Chinese Man Maintains Health with Unusual Diet and Routine
Lu Shizeng, a 101-year-old man from Zhejiang province, China, has gained attention for his unconventional diet that includes Coca-Cola, Sprite, seafood, pork, and sweet fruits. Living in the countryside, he travels by rickshaw to buy groceries every five days. Despite a recent fall that ended his use of a tricycle, Lu maintains a consistent daily routine with early meals and sleep. His sons have hired a nanny to care for him, and he reportedly enjoys a hearty appetite and good health for his age.
