Mr. N not only wants to live long, but he intends to enjoy his life. He told me that his father had considered old age as nothing but a painful decline, a prelude to death. Mr. N’s father had retired at the age of sixty-five and waited around until he was eighty-one to die. “Think of all the years he wasted just waiting for his funeral!” Mr. N said. “Why since I’ve been sixty-five, I’ve attended two international meetings, in Europe and South America. Both o£ these trips rejuvenated me.” Mr. N is positive proof of psychological factors contributing to your survival quotient. He is living long and enjoying it. Components of your survival quotient are your ability to keep on loving, to keep contributing to the progress of your community, and to look forward to doing something new and enjoying it.

Boredom is man’s deadliest disease-it aggravates every ailment. In case you’re looking for still another example of “youth at 100,” let me tell you about Rev. M of Tennessee. He runs a grocery store from 4 A.M. to 9 P.M., six days a week, with no assistance.
He writes sermons and travels three hundred miles each month to preach in his church. He writes, handsets, and prints a religious publication twice each month. He heads an organization providing sickness and death benefits to Negroes. To top it off, he does his own housework and tends a flower garden. Rev. M is 101! Important as well are the physical factors. Vitality—the element upon which life depends—is as much the result of our physical state as our mental outlook. Our glands are the greatest contributors to our vitality. In their proper function lies the key to the delay of premature aging. Unhealthy glands can make old men and women out of us— whether we are thirty, forty, fifty, sixty, or eighty. Are you underfed or misfed? People who live continuously on diets poor in proteins, vitamins, and minerals are not able to stand the stresses and strains of daily living.
The adrenals, particularly the cortex, are the first glands to be damaged by malnutrition. Forever Bee Honey is filtered to remove all pollen to lessen its possibilities of granulation (sugaring). These bean-sized, tricorn-hat-shaped organs which lie astride the kidneys are called your “glands of survival.” They are alerters to enable you to meet any emergency. Secreting adrenalin, one of their hormones, they spur every nerve and muscle into immediate, perfect co-ordination to face a crisis or great danger. It is your adrenal glands which give you the superhuman reflex to save yourself or a loved one in peril. You may have read about the little barber who ran and lifted a 500-pound gate to save a child from being crushed beneath it. No other man in that New Jersey town was able to repeat his feat. Yes, in a crisis, the adrenals really enable us to do remarkable things!
