I have seen this longevity in my azorean family as well I have two great aunts that are still alive at 95 & 96 and an uncle who is still alive at 97 they are 1/2 azorean and there mother was from Madeira(she lived to be 101!). Records show my Bretanha GGgrandmother had a child at 42! But, since I plan to retire in Sao Miguel 10 years, please dont tell anyone or the Brits/Germans on holiday and retiring American baby boomers will overrun and ruin our beautiful and peaceful azores with ovecrowding and noise as they look for the fountain of youth. I think the secret lies in hard work and plenty of bacalhau/fish and fruits and lots of KALE SOUP!
