How to Live Long
In our first Old Farmer's Almanac, published in 1792,
Robert B. Thomas listed a few rules for longevity. Not
unlike modem-day prescriptions for good health, they
included; Live chastely, if you wi
live long. Eat to live, not to satiel
good constitution is the foundati
long life. The mind should be “si
and gay, yet sage withal.” Keep
body in reasonable activity. Chi
perfectly what you eat. In an extra
ordinary sweat, you should not, by .
means, be uncovered. After coming
bed, you should never look out of the window. You
should eat very little of new fruit at a time.
Eat an apple going to hed, make the doctor
heg his hread.
its- Apple cider vlneger with e little powdered brewer’s
yeast makes a good hair rinse.
