In the era, when most people slow down, Mike still runs, pulling up and playing on the canoe-and he thinks it is all due to what he eats.
Diagnosis of cancer that has changed
At the age of 69, Mike was diagnosed with life – cancer. Doctors gave him only three months to live. Instead of inferior, he took control. Mike came across a diet of Michi Kushi cancer prevention, a book that introduced it to a macrobiotical diet-spread that emphasizes whole plant products rooted in ancient Japanese traditions.
It was not just a diet switch; It was a complete transformation of a lifestyle. For several months, Mike not only saw his cancer symptoms disappear, but his arthritis also relaxed. And so, decades later, 102, it continues to bloom.
Simple, vegetable diet
Daily nutrition is not bizarre, but they are deeply alive. It focuses on whole, unprocessed foods and avoids sugar, processed meat and dairy products. His food is usually made with:
- Brown rice
- Couples with vegetables like carrots, cabbage and cabbage
- Seaweed for trace elements
- Legumes, especially half a jar with beans every day
Studies support its choice. According to the World Cancer Research Fund, a high legume and vegetable diet helps reduce cancer risk and maintain better immune function.
Movement as a daily habit
Even at 102, Mike does not sit still. It runs, canoe and can even do pull -ups, which is rare at any age. Stay is physically active-it is not subject to the negotiating part of its routine.
CDC suggests that regular movement – especially strength and cardio -practitioners – can slow biological aging, improve joint health and maintain brain function. Active Life Mike is a live example of this study in action.

Saying not a chemical and so that the simplicity
Mike avoids unhealthy food, but also everything that is too processed. It chooses organic products, drinks of filtered water, and on the ground is cleaned of chemical supplements and preservatives.
Its cooking is minimal, boiling and fermentation is its methods. This corresponds to the research of the Harvard School of Public Health, which suggest that cooking methods can affect food value. Simple drugs retain nutrients and avoid harmful compounds formed during frying or frying.
Deep connection with nature
In addition to food and exercise, Mike attributes his well -being to be in harmony with nature. It spends time outdoors, grows part of its own food and supports the routine that follows the natural rhythms of the day.
This lifestyle has roots in Japanese macrobiotical philosophy, which focuses on the balance – between Yin and Jan, between nature and body. Modern studies show that the impact of natural light, fresh air and soil germs helps regulate mood, sleep and immunity.
Life that is fueled by discipline rather than doctors
Mike does not hope for medicines and frequent visits of the doctor. He believes that food is his medicine. “Cancer left. I did it, not doctors,” he says with confidence.
Experts agree that lifestyle plays an important role in health results. The review published in Lancet oncology showed that more than 30-50% of cancer cases can be prevented through diet, physical activity and avoiding environmental toxins.
Mike’s journey is a proof of what can achieve a consistent and careful life. It’s not about trends or miracles – it is about commitment to the basics: true food, daily movement and
