Havana, Cuba. The Oldest People In The World
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 фев 2021
- The republic of Cuba… This island state in the Caribbean sea still carries the romantic vibe of the 1959 revolution. After dictator Batista was brought down, the country has received an unofficial nickname, the Island of Freedom. For more than half a century its residents live in a socialist system with free education, medicine and retirement benefits.
As life expectancy continues to soar, more and more of us are living to well over the age of 100. We ask some of the oldest people in the world the question everyone wants answered: what is the secret to long life?

PS: What's the oldest person you have ever met?
In the last three years, the United States has lost 40% of its bees, which have disappeared in 24 states. This is happening in Brazil and in almost every part of the world. Not in Cuba, in this Cuban country bees have not decreased, due to the non-use of pesticides in crops, gardens and fruit production. It's definitely one of the reasons we live so long.
I love cubans 🐝
I'm Puerto Rican, Cuba was our sister island, then the USA happened. (Historical fact: the CIA lost control of Batista, decided to get rid of him and replace him with, of all people, Fidel Castro. Who was upper middle class and they actually thought they could control him. I was still in the category of kid, but even I knew who Fidel's best friend was and I had no doubt that was a stupid idea. People can blame who they want but the USA was #1 responsible.) They also invaded PR in 1898 and destroyed the economy of a RICH nation, thanks to the location, which meant CENTER OF COMMERCE between Europe and the American continents. Still there, with now billionaires from the US are buying all the land in PR that comes up for sale, while around 60% of Puerto Ricans had to move to the US, already. I have my own small wildlife habitat in Minnesota that I started from a property of all usless lawn. This last year, I had over 100 wild Bumble bees by the start of cold season. When I moved there I could only find on mother/daughter pair. There is still hope for bees, but most people in the US do NOT really care.

MY Mother died, five years ago with One hundred six.
She born 1910 Died 2016
And I have Eighty two, I drive, live by myself, shopping my food and I cooking and do everything in my own place
And you keep up with technology. You are beautiful and you make me smile. 😘
Waaaaw
I don't want to live that long. I don't want to live past 70. That's plenty of enough.
In Costa Rica people reach 120 years old, in my family most aunties are over 100 hundred, my dad is 101 and my mom 98.
A blessing from Almighty Lord.
You're lying
Everywhere in the world you have people living over their time. What’s new?
@@sierra5713 why do you think this person is lying
@@soundcityintl 😂
What beautiful people they are.
My grandfather died at 105 years old he never left Cuba.
He Didn’t MISS Much BELIEVE me.🇨🇦
@@moemimouni679 Really? He missed the destrucion of his nation thanks to the USA. That's as much as it gets.
Cuban centenarians look the healthiest so far. All centenarians in the documentary still have a full set of teeth and most of them still have good posture while walking. Regarding being positive and enjoying life all centenarians around the globe shares this positive of views of life.
Lol cuba takes, care their teeth funny is it .Here we haven't have, that lucky how free is that.
@@evelynmiranda9072 it’s because of the shit we put in our food here. They don’t. Their water has natural fluoride as well.
And they seem to have good eyesight, less wearing glasses.
@@TheAlexJimenez : It's partially that they are not eating as much junk, but they have sugar in their diet too, although typically nowhere near as much. The biggest difference is they have free healthcare and free dental for everyone. Just look at the difference between say England where they have even worse dental care than the U.S. as compared to any of the Socialist or Social Democracy countries.
Thats that rich melanin!!!
My my God bless them all to be healthy ,happy ,spiritual an loved dearly God bless all the people who work towards caring sharing kindness to these beautiful souls .
I love uall stay bless stay safe.
I watched all episodes of this series, and this is my favourite one. Have never been to Cuba but definitely planning to visit some day. I am very impressed by how the government cares for the elderly.
There is music everywhere in Cuba. Long live!
Viva la Cuba. God bless and keep her proud and strong. May she reign supreme over her agressor the USA.
Long live Cuba. The gem of the Carribean.
Ummm why do I think you don't now or ever have lived in Cuba
My Puerto Rican family lives that long because we love and respect our elders and treat them like the Royalty that they are.
I have not watched this whole video but one thing that should have been said at the beginning no McDonald's no Burger King no processed food no poison that they sell in the Good o usa
My whole family is from Cuba, I can say that this is true, my parents, grand parents and their parents reached a very old age.
No mc' Donalds, no coke.
No food
@@heraldomedrano851 it's a tropical country. Lots of sugar canes for rhum exports, all kinds of fruits and veggies maybe not too many cows, some pigs, lots of real chickens, and lots and lots of fishes of all kinds near by, being a narrow island.
No StarbuX 🤮🤮🤮💀
N9t much food period.
I love Cuba
Beautiful. This was amazing to watch. 🌟
Just the beauty of the country is enough to add to one's lifespan.
I’ve been to Cuba many times ,the cities are dumps and falling apart. They don’t even have paint !
@@riobabic8960 Can you read? She said countryside dude. Most cities are shit
Thanks that they can not afford processed food and having to consume legumes, fish, fruits
veggies, they live longer. They also have the sun and because of low pollution they are less likely to die younger. The only problem is sugar that they are consuming a lot but at least is only one lethal kind of food.
Plus they were locked out of chemical agriculture due to political stand...it was a blessing they dont realize.
Hi SDA
C0ol
I have visited Cuba twice. Every time I have visited Cuba I have lost weight due to the food I consumed plus the walking and drinking plenty of water but once I return to California I gain a lot of weight by eating a lot of processed fast food due to my work schedule.
@@carollynne5943 Americans are subjected to population reduction chemicals like sodium nitrate. Watch the youtube video "how the meat industry hides the truth". Monsanto is not in cuba!
Bless all of them and may the yunas bless and protect them amen
Thank God for all the old people in the world
That's a fact ✌️
Alleluia!!!!
Nature fresh fruits and vegetables fish sunshine exercise and no stress love it
Vegetales,fish and fresh food in Cuba. ? Lol that’s a joke right?
Sounds like my country! And that's our motto "No stress" ☺
@@CVRenee but unfortunately, that video is all lies, the Cuban people live under a lot of stress every single day, trying to figure out how to find food to put in the table
@@raulvaldes3252 Ohhh I'm sorry 💔 I understand.
@@CVRenee I will recommend everyone to go for a couple of months to Cuba , Venezuela or North Korea and let see if they can eat, fruits, milk , bread or anything, every day
Awwww, this cute, Ian. May the universe bless your wisdom n kindness!
Really I love Cuba my childhood teacher and health cares
I love Cuba and I would like to visit it some day
Cuban government are having a very loving program for the senior citizen wish all......
Cuba actually seems like a nice place. It is not at all what the US says. I'd like to visit one day
Loving this one thanks for sharing very information blessed love to all knowledge is power hopefully everyone pays attention keep up the good work loving the food and the culture can’t wait to visit 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Part of it I imagine, is not being so stressed out working 60hours a week to barely survive. Not to mention what it takes these days to raise a family in the US
This makes me smile ☺
Burning high calories reduces longevity. Also in Cuba perhaps there is less toxic chemicals and pesticides from Monsanto. Quemar calorías altas reduce la longevidad. También en Cuba tal vez haya menos químicos tóxicos y pesticidas de Monsanto.
I love these documentaries
Thank u for this wonderful vedio theirs a lot 2 Leary all around us Cubans Doctos are very very humble and well rounded that S s fact.thank you for sharing this with the world ,the old old American cars are doing very well some times when our backs are against the wall we thrive .Thank again for shining a light on long life good luck Cuba.
It's no Magic...
People with less STRESSFUL Life. Live Longer..
Hello, Juan
How are you doing today?
Amazingly good video, really liked it and the music too!!
Happiness is the key
thank you for sharing beautiful video
I'm sure there's a bit of propaganda here, but take away the positives. Who can argue that good nutrition & exercise are NOT a good thing? I don't see obesity here, a problem that plagues the young & the old in America & UK. So, let's give Cuba credit for that.
Ni kweli 👍🏽
On propaganda na doubt juu the channel doesn't seem to have a political leaning ,again for a Western based science channel to find a study worthy topic on cuba says alot about the society fidel nurtured. Good Nutrition alone reduces chances of chronic lifestyle diseases by a big margin . Food and big pharma industries dont like that , that's why they'll sponsor propaganda on cuba . Exercise pia muhimu sana . Kudos cuba
What is the proproganda that you have identified?
Because cubans dont havee enough food. Not that they wont eat , they cant.
That’s how you know Government cares about the people 👍
I always knew cuba takes care of it ppl regardless of all the lies .The 🇺🇸 say .
@@evelynmiranda9072 yes they really does
OMG Government and corporations don't care. They are both without a heart. Only people care. And only those people who posses empathy. Sociopaths occupy the positions of power in both government and corporations at about 80% to 95%.
@@CUBANARAMA The government is not massacring it people. Get outta here with your cliche anti socialist crap.
@@matthewkelleyhotmail depends on which government you are talking about, which politicians. Corporations, yes. They only care about profit in the markets. But if you can manage to vote in a leftist government, it is better for the people, fact.
I like it 👍, Cuba a nice healthy place , natural,wish to visit some time
Thank you
As a cuban who has live the true life of cubans since 1959 I can tell you it will be a rude awaikening. The people in the documentary are the privileges members of the government elite or have work for them and belong to the communist party. The life of the people of Cuba is not like that beautiful history for the people life is hunger, misery and no human rights.
I suggest that you do an impartial research of real life in Cuba....
Cuba is lovely place I been their for 6 times sea and white sand people are very friendly
GOD BLESS THESE PEOPLE WITH GOOD HEALTH AND STRENGTH🙏🏽🙏🏻🇬🇾❤🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾
God bless them !!!
Damn his signature is nice damn I'm just shook
Wow! Cuba is so advance in taking care of their seniors...👏👏👏
The only better place will be North Korea, the doc is full of Shxx
@@Firul4is if you haven’t been to Cuba or from Cuba stfu
@@real8551 , Comrade Re, sorry I forgot to mention another place, Venezuela! you deserve something like it, they are waiting for u.

@@lilamayoral1031 they do not need to. The state takes care of them.
Interesting & Beautiful Documentry! ThankU!
Thk you for sharing your video. It’s very helpful !❤😊
Cuba the best place to live
It would be a perfect peaceful dream come true to visit Cuba. I may not ever want to come back here....
I visited in 2018 for 10 days and it was love at first sight.... Can't wait to go back.
What if it's not the U.S. that wants nothing to do with Cub, but Cuba that wants nothing to do with the U.S. I certainly wouldnt blame them. Even with the current unrest...I'm ready to move to Cuba. 🖤✊🏾🔥
That is certainly on my bucket list.
@@siri-lilyshilo7553 Life is only easy in Cuba for foreigners ... The average cuban makes about 40 dollars or less A MONTH!!!! ... So let's be realistic.
@@paulettemorgan9959 I had my own little apartment for 15 dollars a day and ate meals for 2 dollars even though i used to prepare my own meals sometimes.... I was so happy.
Thanks for this documentary...I love Cuba and it's people. My husband and I visited the East end but we've never been to Havana..maybe some day! I wish we had their weather in Canada 🇨🇦
I wonder how the Cuban elderly managed during Covid lockdowns .. it would've been hard on them not being able to socialize with each other
Cuba is magical. I am from Toronto and we go twice a year pre covid. We stay in a beautiful condo in Vedado by the Hotel Cohiba what an amazing neighbourhood and safe. Also ten mins to old Havana
@@real8551 I'm from Ottawa. I've never heard of Vedado
@@MsSony12345 it’s about 10 mins from old Havana. It’s one of the more modern communities. Nice cafes, restaurants and nightlife. I love it because it very safe to walk around and meet people. The condo we stay in is first class and facing the Caribbean Sea. Our airBnB guy is Alejandro who lives in Miami but he ensures that all of your needs are adequately met. You should check it out next visit.
@@real8551 thank you for the info
I would love to come to 🇨🇦..I love that country
Um, so Cuba takes care of their elderly, free housing, healthcare, organic food, doctors come to their homes, and they call the U.S. the greatest country in the world. BTW, if they have homeless people in Cuba I didn't see not one and no tent communities. Something seems very wrong with that picture.
They tape recorder a preselect persons with good homes walking inside Cuba is terrific experiene
As a person who lived in Cuba and escaped nearly 8 years ago... Shut up. You have no idea what you are talking about
@@DiegoGonzalez-cd3tt You're a traitor and won't be able to leave not even 85 year's!
Heard the have the best health care system and every child has to go to school.
@@harryhassanjeancharles4577 thank you, at least I'll live my life with freedom
The Cuban lifestyle is very different from the USA. They consume fewer calories and they burn more calories. They walk almost daily and usually more than a mile. Their covid19 death rates are minuscule in comparison to the USA. I know 80 year old people who are still working in Cuba. My friend Sosa is 8w and he climbs four flights of stairs several times a day leaving and returning to his apartment. He doesn't have an elevator. He doesn't take any medicine and 9 of his eleven siblings are still alive.
I'm 72 and handicapped and aging rapidly due to misdiagnosis/medication by a doctor. I retired from my architecture practice but I draw, paint and write 7 days a week.
My 96 yo brother, soon to be 97 is healthy. So is my 95 yo sister. My 91 yo brother still works his heavy machine business 5 days a week 8-5. My 80 yo brother threatens to retire in a year or two! My little sis and brother, 68 and 66 are still working and taking care of t heir kids and grandkids.
sounds great
Where do you live and what is your nationality?
Long live Cuba
Thanks for this video' ❤️❤️
How Ironic... Liberty Island, With No Liberty at All!
It would be very informative if it covers foods.
Free health care & drug free - the USA & the World will follow - Blessed It Be.
You all just go ahead and live your life and leave America out of it.
It interesting how the rest of the world lives in the 21 century but Cubans are stoke in the 17th century how they grow and become more modern from this ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love from a Congo Kinshasa 👍🇨🇩💪
I don't think many people in the 17th century lived to be over a hundred years old.
My roommate of seven years got “common colds,” frequently the first few years and the last several after having to YELL at him to take his shoes off at door, hasn’t had a single sniffle in years. The Japanese aren’t “Magic Asians,” they just know to not wear their outside shoes through their house.
Very well said!
The Hawaiians have same belief. Cant get most Americans to respect my beliefs. So when I get visitors, I usually give them paper shoes to wear over their dirty ones. I even have sign:
Please remove shoes.
No take more better ones when you leave.
Same with Caribbean’s. You cannot wear shoes in the house and after you arrive home you must take those clothes off shore and wear clothing that’s only for indoors. I found it weird but they hardly have colds or flus
@@real8551 I’m from the Caribbean and when it’s time to catch a cold, it’s time. But not often, but it does happen.
I use to demand that, recently been stacking..
Good stuff tnx for sharing
Wow Cubans are much better situation than Americans.😍😍😍
You know i love this,,,thanks for finding a way ,,,God bless you..just be happy as we prepare grow to old age with a smile and enery as this our girlfriends
Cuba People liven longer because they are very HAPPY
....organically grown foods.... in a word.....
My mom 92 yes she love her pepsi .She being drinking pepsi ever since she was young.😁In Puerto rico ppl live a long time i think is the island, living .life is better less stress.
Hello, Evelyn
How are you doing today?
I love these cars🤣❤❤❤❤🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾
I wish this series go into more detail about what people specifically eat in each area.
Just saying vegetables and fruits isn't good enough.
A lot of people around the world eat fruits and vegetables but not all live long.
All the people in the Carribean/West Indies eat pretty much the sane thing but they are not all living long.
The other Caribbean countries import and consume American junk! The U.S. embargo on Cuba turned out to be a blessing. Lol
They eat nothing. There is no food. Yes free healthcare with no meds. No hospital supplies. Of course they live longer. Fasting works miracles. Then again you can be anemic. This is documentary is full of crap.
Having visited Cuba twice (5 years apart), they eat what they grow and grow what they eat. The meals consist of a lot of fresh foods... Fish, Pork (and it's by-products). Natural juices like Guava, Coconut Water, Papaya and Pineapple and fruits like Banana, Oranges and Sugar Cane. They do not seem to consume a lot of starch available like Rice, Green Banana and Rice but more vegetables. There are usually lines for eggs and bread which seems to be consumed a lot. Transportation is scare so those without motor vehicles ride bicycles (which are also converted to modes of transport). This seems to keep them fit along with A WHOLE LOT OF WALKING). They also seem to enjoy going to the beach (as swimming is an excellent form of exercise) and other regular exercise. Those who live near the sea are always enjoying it by fishing etc.. They also like to enjoy themselves by laughing and dancing, drinking and smoking (my only annoyance). They are also hard workers (which keeps them fit) along with completing their own chores (no house help). Although there are no fast food shops there are many overweight Cubans as EVERYONE IS NOT POOR. There are Cubans who live a good life plus they are very good Haglers 😊. They means generally speaking as I'm no expert after 2 visits. Oh, I really like how educated they are and mostly bi-lingual.
Oh, should be sweet potato and not rice again.
@@soniacampbell191 It is illegal for Cubans to eat what they grow, it doesn't belong to them, but to the government! You face prison time for eating beef, and can get beaten for picking fruit off trees.... Only Communist spies survive💁♀️
In Ecuador People also liven longer that 100 year
Some!
Mi great grandma she lived to 107 and she is from Cuba …. Great to know the root to the longevity of the women in my family
Wow amazing!
Great job
We can learn from others but we think we have everything right... no fake food yes yes no fake food that s y we are so sick wake up we can all learn from each other .
Hello, Jocelyn
How are you doing today?
Beautiful program for centennarians
Hello, Rufina
How are you doing today?
Love of family who are Always around and living with them,made them live longer and social interaction
Trying to see who doesnt like this documentary...The wicked exist. 👀🤣🤣
Thank God the people are rising up to fight against the communism in their government. Praying for Cuba 🇨🇺
I am with you, this is a very well made propaganda, not the real life of cuban people. 😥🇨🇺
Without mentioning one the best health care systems in the world. I know people who fought diseases in a western for decades without success and 6 months of treatment in Cuba and they are cured. 👏🏽👏🏽 Viva Cuba 🇨🇺
Yes...but cubans in cuba dont get the same healthcare. I remember sending medicine to cuba because the person had no access to medicine and proper healthcare. They died.
I'm Cuban .This seems like socialist propaganda .NOT TRUE THE STATISTICS ARE RIGGED FOR COMMUNIST PROPAGANDA
Ooo I have enjoyed these videos ! Thank you !
Hello, Tammy
How are you doing today?
My great great grand father lived 113 years old, mu great grand mother lived100, i was born in cuba
I fear that once Cuba opens up, there will be Mcdonalds and Chick Filet all over the place. Then we can say goodbye to living to be 100. They dont know how good they have it.
Ageing cannot be stopped trying hard to resist it's ✋✋✋💜❤💛💚👏👏
Ageing can only be stopped by death. Fact.
Прекрасный репортаж, очень рада за кубинцев, наверное, там где тепло и море всегда настроение лучше, чем где холодные темные депрессивные снежные зимы...
Елена Петерсон - биолог, говорит по русски.
Amazing
big factor to longevity, no stress, avoid fast food, get a healthy good night sleep 😴 ❤
Aww they are so cute 🥰.glad to see they are in good health.
What I like is how doctors visits the elders, and how they have them living healthy with the exercises ,not like Trinidad,they don't care.
Thank you
All a lie. Citizens have next to no healthcare.
Important thing in life is love...
Interesting. but hard to understand above the music noise.
Sorry I haven't seen any one here older than my grandfather and he is 114 still being able to walk to the shop alone in a village in Nigeria so you can't call them oldest people on earth another example it's an old woman 121 years old in Agbor delta state in Nigeria she was dancing at her 120 birthday Last year
It's not a competition, It's a series show casing old people in different regions. Perhaps politely reach out to the producers of this show so that they film your region with your guidance since you seem to know plenty of older people in their Hundred and something years.
Caloric suppression..
This is so true when they was no McDonald’s or Burger King’s in Barbados we were in good health now our lives is over
Elena that's 35 yrs old looks older then them and more stiff lol , she looks 45.. damn I feel ashamed I'm in my 30s In Cali and I got all type of aches , sever back pain from sleeping on the floor and deep depression this just woke me up lol dang this makes me smile
I want to live in Liberty Island.
WOOOOOOOOOOW 🤗💙🌎
🙏🌍
so one of the secrets is to know how to cope with stress/to be highly tolerant to stress? Since stress is part of life and we cannot avoid it in most cases.
Eating right excersise putting God first is the antidote.
God absolutely not.
We left cuba when I was 2 years old.
Now I am 69.
My grandmother die at 107. I think she die of a broken heart after my aunt die.
