115 year old woman in Michigan named Jeralean Talley is the world's oldest person as of this week.  As you expected her habits to make it to 115 are not that healthy. She gave 4 things she's done to make it to 115:

1.  She watches a lot of TV.  She's old. She's probably not gonna be doing extreme sports  Her daughter says her favorite shows are "Ellen" and "Wheel of Fortune", and she also listens to baseball on the radio. BMets? Who knows.

2.  She eats fast food.  Her favorites are Chicken McNuggets and Wendy's chili, and she loves potato salad.  She also eats a lot of fruit, vegetables, rice, and fish.  Here's the thing, she started staying away from butter  ten years ago.

3.  She's also lived alone for a long time.  Her husband passed away in 1988,  she lived alone for almost 30 years until her daughter moved in to take care of her around seven years ago.

4.  She gambles!  Her daughter says she's active because she goes to the casino occasionally to play the slots.  She goes fishing twice a year, and she bowled until she was 104. Get this kids, she mowed her own lawn until she was 108.

But, she says the one thing that matters the most is how you treat people. Always trying to be nice is the secret to staying healthy and living a long life.
