A beautiful little village in Europe has been thoroughly investigated after around a third of its population were found to be more than 100 years old.<\/p>\n

Of those that have passed the century milestone in the Italian village, about twenty percent are said to be 110 – despite the fact researchers found almost nobody to be \u201cactively exercising\u201d.<\/p>\n

The team were looking into the longevity phenomenon in Acciaroli, southern Italy, and suspect it has something to do with good genes and good diet.<\/p>\n

During a podcast about their discoveries, Alan Maisel said that \u201ceverybody ate anchovies\u201d – and \u201cthey seem to eat it with every meal\u201d.<\/p>\n

Another big part of their diet was a particular type of herb – as Mr Maisel added: \u201cThey have rosemary in almost everything they cook with. Whatever form they put it in has been shown in scientific studies to reduce and prevent cognitive dysfunction and some ageing.”<\/p>\n

A key part of their lifestyle is seemingly their ability to simply be \u201crelaxed\u201d all the time.<\/p>\n

The researcher confirmed that during evenings and throughout the afternoon, residents sit around in the “cantinas”, enjoying wine and coffee.<\/p>\n

A key piece of data found unusually good blood circulation for their age – levels which would be found in people in their 20s and 30s – and they point towards the diet for causing this.<\/p>\n

There was also a distinct lack of chronic illnesses like heart disease, obesity and Alzheimer\u2019s.<\/p>\n
