The Melis family in Italy has 9 brothers and sisters, and their age is 861 years old. In 2012, this family was certified by the Kim World Record and became the world's oldest family, breaking the Kim World Record. Experts have found that they must eat three foods for lunch, which may help to grow.
The "Sunny News" reports that the ages of the nine brothers of this family are 861 years old, and the eldest sister in the family lived to be 108 years old. They live in one of the five rare long-term lands in the world: Sardinia, Italy.
In 2023, the Melis brothers and sisters starred in the Netflix record "Live to 100: Secrets of the Blue Zones". The program visited the Melis family with American writer Dan Buettner, where residents generally had an average life span.
The Melis family lives in a remote village in Sardinia, Italy. The nine brothers and sisters in the family are very long. After Dan Buettner visited the Melis family, the long family shared their dietary secrets and found that they must eat these three dishes for lunch. One of them is a soup powder containing a variety of bean foods, including vegetables such as erine beans, pinto beans and white beans.
nutritionist Samantha Cassetty said that the longest and healthiest people eat half to a cup of beans every day. She said pinto beans and erectile beans are rich in nutrients, protein and fiber, and are free of sterols.
In addition, they also enjoy acid bread for lunch every day, a bread made by fermented by lactate and yeast. They are a raw noodles group before fermentation, and baked after fermentation, and will produce a sour taste during the baking process.
Kesiti said that naturally fermented yeast bread does not produce the same blood sugar level as white bread, helping to maintain healthier blood sugar levels and avoiding insulin impedance and type 2 diabetes due to high blood sugar.
After lunch, the Melis family also drank a small glass of red wine, 2 to 3 ounces each (about 59 to 88 ml). Kesiti suggested that proper drinks can help increase the level of "good sterol" (i.e. high-density cervical sterol, HDL) and analyze that due to the above secrets of healthy diet, there are many 100-year-olds in the Melis family. The eldest sister of the family, Consolata Melis, died in 2015, and is the oldest survivor in the town.
