4 signs you'll live a long time

NVDL: Looks like I need to work on skipping the soda.

YOU SKIP SODA (EVEN DIET)
The exact culprit isn't completely
understood, but it could be the caramel color added to colas and
other dark sodas, which increased the risk for metabolic syndrome
in animals.
YOUR LEGS ARE STRONG
Lower-body strength means you also have good balance, flexibility,
and endurance.
YOUR MOM HAD YOU YOUNG
If she was under age 25, you're twice as likely to live to age 100
as someone born to an older mom, according to University of Chicago
scientists.
YOU EAT AND DRINK PURPLE THINGS
Red wine, concord grapes, blueberries (okay, not quite purple, but
close enough) all get that deep rich color from polyphenols-
compounds that reduce heart disease risk and may even protect
against Alzheimer's disease, according to new research.
