101-Year-Old Nutritionist Shares 7 Rules for Long, Healthy Life

Dr. John Scharffenberg’s powerful habits for longevity and health — no sugar, no shortcuts.

Exercise Daily Dr. Scharffenberg says staying active is more vital than diet. He kept fit planting 3,000 strawberries and 80 fruit trees!

No Tobacco He never smoked. Tobacco leads to cancer, heart disease, and organ damage. He kept it out for life.

Avoid Alcohol Even small amounts? He says, Skip it. Alcohol offers no true health benefit, and he’s lived over a century without it.

Maintain Healthy Weight He skips dinner and eats breakfast and lunch only. Intermittent fasting keeps him light and heart-healthy.

Plants Over Meat Vegetarian since his 20s, he thrives on a plant-based diet — no meat, more life.

No sugar, no problem. Sugar-free life: less weight, more energy. He enjoys sweet fruits and sugar-free oat waffles.

Limit Saturated Fats Butter, cheese, coconut oil? Not in his kitchen. He says low-fat is high health.

Dr. Scharffenberg proves age is just a number. Discipline, not genetics, fuels his long, healthy life.
