The Shocking "Health Tip" From One of the World's Oldest People

Guess the health tip that one of the world's oldest people credits for his longevity (It's kind of shocking and a little inspiring)...


Walter Breuning of Great Falls, Montana, just celebrated his 113th birthday, becoming the world's oldest man. Yowza!


Here's why he says he's had such a long, healthy life: He skips dinner.


What?


According to reports, he enjoys two big, healthy meals--breakfast and lunch--and that's it.


While his "skip your dinner" advice is a little controversial (sorry Walter, no can do), I do think he has some good things to say here:


"I think you should push back from the table when you're still hungry," he told USA Today. "You get in the habit of not eating at night, and you realize how good you feel. If you could just tell people not to eat so darn much."


There you have it. Advice from a healthy 113 year old: "Don't eat so darn much." Love it!


P.S. He also says he drinks lots of water and snacks on loads of fruit!
