Maria Branyas Morera, who passed away last year at the remarkable age of 117, has provided valuable insights into the secrets of healthy ageing. Recent studies of her gut health reveal that it was remarkably youthful, suggesting a strong link between gut microbiome balance and longevity.
Researchers noted that Morera's diet, rich in natural foods and low in processed items, likely played a significant role in maintaining her gut health. This thriving microbiome may have contributed to her overall well-being and resilience against age-related diseases.
Additionally, her active lifestyle, which included regular social interactions and mental stimulation, is believed to have further supported her longevity.
