100-Year-Old Woman Says Green Banana Is Her Secret To A Long, Healthy Life

A woman celebrating her 100th birthday has shared what she believes is one of the secrets behind her long and healthy life: green banana.

The centenarian was speaking during a visit to Cuts By Antonio, where she reflected on reaching the remarkable milestone and offered advice to younger generations.

When asked about the secret to living a long and healthy life, she said she had generally lived healthily and avoided certain foods before revealing her daily green banana routine.

She explained that a few years ago she developed a severe bout of diarrhoea. Her daughter, Maxie, suggested that she try green banana.

The woman said she recovered and has continued eating green banana every day since, usually alongside fish and particularly salmon.

“Green banana, that is the secret,” she said.

Her comments reflect her personal experience and should not be interpreted as medical evidence that green banana can treat diarrhoea or guarantee longevity.

But food was only part of the wisdom she shared.

Asked what lessons she would give someone in their early twenties, the centenarian urged young people not to “sell yourself” or become carried away by flattering words. She encouraged them to be themselves and prioritise their education.

“Be yourself. Go to school,” she advised.

She also reflected on her earlier life, describing her mother as a very strict woman and remembering someone she called “the best man in the world”.

“The times we had together, they were not just good, but you can’t repeat,” she recalled.

Cuts By Antonio shared the birthday conversation online, describing it as a pleasure to have her visit and celebrate the milestone while allowing viewers to hear some of the wisdom she has accumulated over a century.
