Biography of Maria de Jesus

Although Maria de Jesus is known to many as the world's longest living elderly person, she is an ordinary woman. It is known that Maria de Jesus has always lived in the countryside, living a life of sunrise and sunset

The secret of longevity

Maria de Jesus once said that she never smoked, nor drank alcohol or coffee. She likes to eat vegetables, but not meat. I believe that this is the reason for her longevity, and the reality that we can all learn, but really can do really not much, on the point of not eating meat alone, only monks can adhere to, normal people can not do!
