How to Live to 99 BETTY WHITE’S SECRETS OF LONGEVITY
Beloved“Golden Girls”actress BettyWhite is still enjoying her golden years. The famed actress celebrated her 99th birthday this January. While she told People magazine that she’s“blessed with good health, so turning 99 is no different than turning 98,”she also had a few tips for folks looking tomake it to their centennial birthday. Keep Laughing “Don’t take yourself too seriously,”White says. “You can lie to others—not that I would—but you cannot lie to yourself.”White has undoubtedly providedmany laughs to viewers over the years, but she’s not just playing it up for the camera. Laughter is part of what keeps her young. Be Optimistic White says a good sense of humor also helps her keep a good attitude and look for the positive rather than“dwelling on the downside.”Avoiding negativity also gives her energy. “It takes up toomuch energy being negative,”she told People magazine. Stay Busy With nearly eight decades of acting under her belt, six Emmys on her shelf, and over 120 screen credits to her name, White is no stranger to hard
work. As she told Parade in 2018, “I just love to work, so I’ll keep working until they stop asking.”
Exercise Your Mind In addition to her busy work schedule, what keeps BettyWhite sharp? Crossword puzzles! She told Katie Couric in an interview, “I’m addicted. An admitted addict. I just can’t put ’emdown.” Find a Cause White is a lifelong animal lover. She calls her golden retriever, Pontiac, “the star of the house.”While pet ownership itself comes with proven health benefits, White has channeled her love for animals in bigger causes. She’s been a trustee and boardmember of the Greater Los Angeles Zoo Association for over 40 years and has done work to help protect endangered species in the wild. Funds raised fromWhite’s official fan club, Bet’s Pets, all go to support animal charities. Embrace Your Vices White told Parade she loves vodka and hot dogs “probably in that order,”which just goes to show that you don’t have to forgo your treats to live to 99.
