He reminds me of my Dad who lived to be 100+ 8 months, he cycled 20 miles a day until he was 98 and was still in great mental and physical health. He only had 4 days of illness at the end. He ate mostly veg and spuds but did have meat if someone cooked it for him. He had a life well lived
Thank you for reminding and enlightening us about what we should do to have a long life Dr. you did every thing with moderation Very beautiful That's God 's plan for his people
My Dad always said Eat Well but with moderation.....well our family loves/like eating and cooking food....but always lots of vegs and fruit...fish...white meat then the red ones....
Dr. Scharffenberg was also one my professors at Loma Linda University as well. (I also was a classmate of Dr. Hans Diehl) . Dr. Scharffenberg and I also worked together in doing Coronary Risk Screening and Prevention programs throughout the Hawaiian Islands when I was Director of Wellness & Lifestyle Medicine and Nutritional Services at Adventist Health Castle Medical Center in Hawaii.
My mom lived to 105, a sister died at 100 and another is now 103. They all were mentally sharp with no sign of alzheimers and mom still got around quite well. She took the lowest dose of BP medicine and swore by vitamins. They all ate out very little, had large gardens, canned and preserved all of their own food and used no pesticides. She ate bran for breakfast every day and all three had diets that included potatoes every day. Lots of home grown vegetables, homemade rye bread, and meats they butchered themselves for years. Mom worked in her garden until she was 101 and still baked her amazing pies until 103!
Dear Dr. Scharffenberg, What an honor you have done me by sharing yourself and your journey today. I feel so privileged just to have had this connection. I wish I had been your shadow through life. Such incredible learning and service you have given. I really didn't want this time with you to end. Any possibility you'll come back really really soon? I will be first in line when you write a book. Even just a number of videos continuing to share in greater detail your parade of adventures. I really thought Chef AJ did such a phenomenal job interviewing you. Your sense of humor and twinkle in your eye I'll always remember. You're such a joy! Please keep in touch with AJ and then she'll keep the rest of us knowing how you are. Well, I'm 75 and best leave before I propose. lol. Thank you again so much. Blessings, Patricia
Yes! Please invite him back! He is such wonderful example of all the benefits of the dietary recommendations he makes. My mother will be 99 next month, eats a standard American diet and, while she doesn’t have Alzheimer’s, she has had colon cancer, can only walk to the bathroom with a walker, must be taken in a transport chair when she goes out, and is not nearly as mentally alert or healthy as this man. We don’t just want to live longer, we also want to be healthy and be able to enjoy our life as we age. This gentleman seems to be doing that, and the joy of life he exudes is inspiring! Louise Jacobs
I really really love this heads up ofa nutrition from this veteran nutritionist, lovely,i personally endorse healthy eating,but with this knowledge of same i am appalled, great.
I didn't hear any 100 years old person speaking with such clarity, keeping the answers and not repeating himself! His optimism gives me so much energy!! I hope many of his booklets will be available on the internet for the wider audience.
Epic! He is 99 and in excellent physical and mental health and knows the science including current studies. He gives excellent advice. So glad you found him, Chef AJ. Thank you!
I'm almost 83 and am healthy and happy, no medication at all for over 40 years. Grew up in Berlin during war, was ill all my young life, died to my "old" self and started a New Life in beloved Mount Shasta, Ca. Blessings to All>
Welllll...... He reminds me of my grandfather who died in a ripe old age of 116 I still have a lot of great memories of him and the most fascinating thing that I remember of him was He knew exactly the time when God took him home. I am still proud of him and I will never forget him as long as I live for the Glory of God.
He is truly blessed indeed, his voice his memory, over all he looks great, at 99 may GOD continue to bless you Dactor for as long, thanks for sharing your knowledge to us, you are blessing,,,
Your grandfather lived till 116? That's beyond awesome. Where did he live? Would love for you to share more information if you would. My grandmother lived to 103. She got polio in her 60s and that definitely gave her the wake-up call to take especially good care of herself. I loved hearing her stories of way back when. She was a school teacher in Atlantic City. She would tell of when the boardwalk there first opened up around 1917 and a shop from China opened there and all were amazed. She bought a large vase there and had made into a lamp which was gifted to me. Yes, so many wonderful memories. Her husband was a map maker and travelled all over making some of the first maps. Ever wonder what our grandchildren will be amazed of from our times? lol Lots I'm guessing. Take care...
I think one of his secrets to living longer must be the fact that he’s stayed so interested in life and science and his cheeky lively countenance. He reminds me of my great uncle who lived into his late 90s and always had a smile on his face and kept his zest for life x
Finding the right purpose in life, a thing you enjoy and love doing. Beside finding love, which gives you joy as long it works. This added to all that healthy behaving like the right food and doing some phiscal Interaktion. All those thing would be an ideal package for a long live.
My friend Dr Sharfenberg. True christian man. Often gave health talks at our church. He and another gentleman gave health talks for weeks. Lives were changed bc of the knowledge they learn at those meetings. God bless you my dear friend. ❤️
What a Nice Old Doctor - and so wise - a very inspiring interview - Steven basic Life style rules: 1) no Tobacco 2) no alcohol 3) usefull exercise ( gardering e.g.) 4) avoid overweight 5) avoid Meat 6) avoid simple sugar meaning Max 6 gr Per day for women and 9 gr Per day for men and drink Water between meals, no juice but eat whole oranges 7) eat early in the day … 🎶🍀🎵💚🐸
I don't know if I'd be able to live half of him (I am 23). But I really cherish the beautiful and advice he gave us. He is 99 yo and a physician so this is by far the best advice out there. What a gem of a person.
@@jgrysiak6566 Sh--e. co--uld ha--ve been ta--king the sam--e thi-ng. oth--er long living people like prin--ce Ph--il--ip, his wif--e, were taking. You would have to di--g deee--p to get this info. Good luck in your research.
Wow!! I worked as a camp counselor one year near North Fork! I got Very sick after drinking from a stream and nearly died. The town doctor saved me.. after I laid for days in the camp sickbay- dehydrated and malnourished. I wonder if He was the doctor who saved my life? If so... Thank You!!! 🙏
Chef AJ what a DELIGHTFUL show. Thank you for having these two wonderful doctors in this video. I've been WFPB for over 10 years now and I just found out about Dr. Scharffenberg if you can believe it (where have I been??). I am filled with so much joy right now and am thankful we have you and these amazing people to provide education and experience on human health.
Wow, he outlived both of his parents and brothers. I hope i get to be as sharp and functional like him when i’m 99. I’d definitely take his advice to exercise at midlife. I just took up gardening during pandemic and managed to grow my own veggies. Living in the tropical Indonesia allows me to do so. Thank you so much chef AJ for inviting Dr Scharffenberg.
@@todayipaint4667 would you rather have your parents bury you instead? In my culture (Chinese) that case is called white head burying black head. It means when you die, you got no kids to bury you.
What a great age, and all his faculties, he has been truly blessed He shared so much of his experience l loved listening to him, I must say thank you DR. Happy birthday when it comes.
Thank you Chef AJ for interviewing Dr. Scharffenberg! He is a treasure ~ a wealth of knowledge, kindness, intellect and vitality at 99! An inspiration to all. Enjoyed every second of this interview. ❤
First time viewer here! Retired Medical Service Corps Officer, U.S. Air Force - this was a fantastic interview! Really enjoyed it, AJ, and wonderful questions too! Thank you
I totally enjoyed this session! Dr Scharffenberg is a very knowledgable, wise, funny doctor. I love his attitude and his sense of humour! Please bring him back again!
The doctor looks amazing, Very sharp too. As long as there's grass fed beef, I'll be enjoying it a couple of times a week. My grandmother lived to 101, my mother lived to a 100. Both were never sick & both mobil. One of them killed after a week in the nursing home where she was visiting because she had hit her head from a fall. They deprived her of water and drugged her. My mother was pushed, hit her head, bled out & did not receive medical attention for hours.
Some time last year I happened upon a You tube presentation of a talk by Dr.Scharffenberg. The name rang a bell as a person whose health articles I had read in our Church papers from time to time. I listened and was quite impressed.. I had no idea that he was still alive. His life is a testimonial to what he taught and the blessings of God! He evidently practiced what he taught throughout these years. It's so refreshing to hear from someone who lived a long temperate, wise, disciplined, useful and godly life and enjoyed it. So many of those whose genetics afforded them longevity brag about their decadent, licentious lifestyle of alcohol and tea consumption, nicotine use, and general dissipation, a not fitting example to youth or adults. Thank God for your long life of service to humanity, Dr, S.
He said exercise may have been why he outlived his brothers but he probably also got more sunshine and fresh air out there as well. I often feel like sunshine is a significant factor. I mean it even tye's back into vitamin D like he mentioned earlier on. But it does other things too, like increase melatonin on a cellular level and interact with chlorophyll to create ubiquinol.
I love the LIVING example this wise plant-based Doctor is to all of us!!! When you know what he does AND you are looking & feeling that great at 99? Nobody can argue 😀
Oh wow he's the same as me :D or, I'm already living like him without knowing it :) I also wake up around 4 am and have breakfast at 6:30, eat only two meals a day, and go to bed at 8-9 pm :D if that isn't some powerful validation I don't know what is ;) and how wonderful it was with the secret guest
Thank you so much for this interview Chef AJ. I love love love Dr. Scharffenberg, his beautiful energy and infectious laugh just made my day, what a joy he is.
Wow. What a delightful and interesting gentleman! What a life he's led, and I can only imagine the level of positive impact he's had on so many people, including Dr. McDougall. Great work, Chef AJ!
I'll bet his ability to be easily amused such that he broke out and giggles so many times during your wonderful interview has a lot to do with it. Stress is a killer, and he really seems like a stress repelling dynamo I wish I could say the same for myself but alas, I am easily stressed. Thank you so much for this incredible treat !
Wooow Dr Scharffernberg , this is great, I hope to change my life style. Sure we need to start with ourselves ,then our communities. I wish to get connected with your family and assist our people in Kenya.❤
My dad is 101 years old. he had the best eating habits. he is not fond about food. only 2 meals a day and very light meals. he eats vegetables, meat, milk and all types of food he likes. He doesn't eat between meals.
Sugar has become the culprit for almost everything that ails us. I believe much of this can be eliminated with exercise. Too much of anything can turn into a problem.
Wow this man, is a jewel. I am so glad, you had him, on your show. I always wanted to talk with a person this age. I would like to hear, from him again. I will save this pod, to refer, back to him!
I enjoyed meeting Dr. Scharffenberg; I am new to this way of eating and am still working on perfecting this diet. Thank you for your informational podcasts
What an amazing gentleman that has much wisdom and we should all pay better attention to what we put in out bodies. Thank you for having him on your show. I am so impressed how sharp and on point he is!!!
Thank you Chef Aj so blessed to hear from Dr.Scharffenberg and my Mom will turn 101 this year in August she still eat food by herself but after she felt she can't walk but she do excercise daily now I understand excercise is important
I learned a lot this 99 year old Doctor what an inspiring story, I’m 67 years old with so much health issues it woke me up what I’ve been doing and eating is so wrong, thank you doctor and me and my husband might move to Fresno as well after living in the Bay Area for so long. Thanks for sharing your story Dr. ❤️🙏
Great talk. Praise for Chef AJ too My dad (93, a runner and fitness enthusiast) will agree that exercise is a wonder drug for living a long productive life, other than plant based eating. I am 66 and turned vegan from vegetarian last year, thanks to Doctor McDougall. Exercise certainly keeps me going! I run and coach tennis.
If one is vegan even the P part is still vegan. Loved your show and guest. Even as I’m 75 I still learned lots from Dr. S. Thank you so much. Vegan since 1985. Cheers and blessings.🙏🏻
Ho, Ho, HO! Dr. S. was my professor in the Public Health Master’s program at Loma Linda University in the 1970’s! Also my Great-grandmother who lived to 104, was a German Jewish member of the Wolf family! SO! That means that Dr. S. and I are probably cousins! Awesome! I STILLL LOVE Dr. Sharffenberg and try to live the best diet lifestyle!
He's right about all of this! And don't drink alcohol. I lived a pretty clean life-diet, exercise, but at age 45, I adopted a habit of drinking a glass of red wine or two every day. I thought it was good for my heart, and I loved how it helped me to relax. After 20 years of a daily wine habit, I developed breast cancer. I have no breast cancer genes and no one in my vast immediate or extended family has ever had breast cancer. I blame myself for my own misguided choice. And no. I do not drink any alcohol now.
HI AJ,so nice to see your channel,where we explore the fountain of youth.Im 65,but look like im in my early 40's.Im totally into this.Just checked out your website,you look SUPERRADIANT.I have to share this with you cause no one seems to be talking about this.,when sharing they'er secrets of Health and Longevity.Iam a Healing Arts Instructor.I practice and Teach various aspects of the Healing Arts,such as Tai Chi,Chi Gung & Yoga,etc.What im about to share with you is becoming rapidly known in the general health feld.The Tibetians have been practicing a form of Chi Gung called, The5 Rites,also known as the 5 Tibetians,for 100's of yrs.Today they are now called THE FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH,because they have been found to REVERSE THE AGING PROCESS.The 5 simple exercises balance the 7 Chakra energy system,which governs your health and well-being.If people add a form of exercise that specifically balances the chakra's they are highly likely to enjoy Robust Health and Fitness, well into they'er 80's,90's,and beyond,by doing just these.Were Multi dimensional,so of course the other 3 bodies have to be attended to.Yes, i practice them.Just google Fountain of Youth,by Peter Kelder.Book available Amazon,or possibly your local Library.Word should be spread far and wide about ,..THE FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH EXERCISE BOOK.
By brisk walking in the fields where there are lots and lots of trees and greeneries, I have managed to cure myself of a bloated tummy, which had bugged me for several years following menopause! TREES HAVE HEALING POWERS!
Yes, this is a long video but watch the whole thing. The surprise guest and the great, warm conversation is golden. Love this video. It’s wonderful record of Dr. Scharffenberg’s life for future viewing.
Bless your heart AJ for not interrupting him when he was blathering on about the problem with veganism vs. vegetarianism. The misinformation was astounding! You should have mention the Seventh Day Adventists study. The EPIC Oxford bone study has been debunked. The countries with the highest dairy consumption have the highest fracture rate. Spinach is a good source of iron … and why would we want that book?
What a beautiful man, his mannerism and smiles reminds me of my dad, when he said "where did It come from" no body knows? Only that man dad has passed on. God Bless you Dr Sir, your memory is sharper than a teenagers. Thank you Chef Aj for bringing this wealth of knowledge to everyone. I appreciate it. I posted it to my family members and anyone that cares for Good health.
Love listening to this great Dr sharing his real life experiences on longevity. I am a vegan lover and will practice it for life. I am highly inspired by Dr.Sharffenberg’s formula on how to live a long and happy life. More power to the brilliant host!
I met him last night and he is as warm and genuine in person as he was on Zoom! Shall I invite him back?
CHEF AJ this was so interesting, yes please ask him again, did he say white potatoes are good? Thank you, great video.
Certainly! I loved the interview.
@@susibul5320 When he comes back please submit a question www.ChefAJ,com
Definitely!
Yes! He's so funny too he's got such a cheeky sense of humour
He reminds me of my Dad who lived to be 100+ 8 months, he cycled 20 miles a day until he was 98 and was still in great mental and physical health. He only had 4 days of illness at the end. He ate mostly veg and spuds but did have meat if someone cooked it for him. He had a life well lived

99 years old and so alert and up to date on nutrition. What a blessing! I want to be like him when I grow up.
I love this doctor 😊
Unbelievable! 99 yo
This was a great interview! I loved listening to him.
AI leaned a lot from him,he is a great doctor

My mom lived to 105, a sister died at 100 and another is now 103. They all were mentally sharp with no sign of alzheimers and mom still got around quite well.

You should write a book on what he ate , drank and all his habits. It would be a treasure trove of information 🤔
I think one of his secrets to living longer must be the fact that he’s stayed so interested in life and science and his cheeky lively countenance. He reminds me of my great uncle who lived into his late 90s and always had a smile on his face and kept his zest for life x
Agree! When the mind gets idle, it begins to shrink and die. Stay active and interested 👍
Finding the right purpose in life, a thing you enjoy and love doing. Beside finding love, which gives you joy as long it works. This added to all that healthy behaving like the right food and doing some phiscal Interaktion. All those thing would be an ideal package for a long live.

He is a tonic
First time viewer here! Retired Medical Service Corps Officer, U.S. Air Force - this was a fantastic interview! Really enjoyed it, AJ, and wonderful questions too! Thank you
I met Dr. Scharffenburg when I was a little girl. He came to do Stop Smoking classes with my dad and came to eat dinner at our house.
I loved Dr. Sharfenberg. Such a wonderful sense of humor. Delightful and still sharp! God Bless him.
I totally enjoyed this session! Dr Scharffenberg is a very knowledgable, wise, funny doctor. I love his attitude and his sense of humour! Please bring him back again!
Laughing is another secret for his longevity. Beautiful spirit. God Bless you doctor.
It was precious when Dr. Schaffenberg said, his mother told him to, "spit it out" ---way to go!
I am from East Africa, but I am honored to this gentleman He lives what he preachs I am so great full Thank you so much!
The doctor looks amazing, Very sharp too. As long as there's grass fed beef, I'll be enjoying it a couple of times a week.
My grandmother lived to 101, my mother lived to a 100. Both were never sick & both mobil. One of them killed after a week in the nursing home where she was visiting because she had hit her head from a fall. They deprived her of water and drugged her.

He said exercise may have been why he outlived his brothers but he probably also got more sunshine and fresh air out there as well. I often feel like sunshine is a significant factor. I mean it even tye's back into vitamin D like he mentioned earlier on. But it does other things too, like increase melatonin on a cellular level and interact with chlorophyll to create ubiquinol.

Except for a 99yo meat eater ..you can't argue lol
@@dominionn09I know a number of PB late 90’s and they aren’t just that age but look marvelous. I will take it. 👏🏻
I absolutely adore this man! He is an inspiration and wonderful seeing him connect with Dr MacDougall. Thank you for putting this together for us!
AJ, you are special letting him talk. He is of great value to many of us! Thank you to both of you!!!
Dr: Scharffenberg is such a gentleman with full of wisdom & experiences to share with public without reservation 👏🏾 thank you doctor 🙏
What a lovely gentleman. Thank you for allowing us to meet him.
What a beautiful soul! So much wisdom & so full of joy for life. He looks amazing, a great advert for WFPB diet. Such a treat, thank you AJ ❤
Oh wow he's the same as me :D or, I'm already living like him without knowing it :) I also wake up around 4 am and have breakfast at 6:30, eat only two meals a day, and go to bed at 8-9 pm :D if that isn't some powerful validation I don't know what is ;) and how wonderful it was with the secret guest
Thank you so much for this interview Chef AJ. I love love love Dr. Scharffenberg, his beautiful energy and infectious laugh just made my day, what a joy he is.
Wow. What a delightful and interesting gentleman! What a life he's led, and I can only imagine the level of positive impact he's had on so many people, including Dr. McDougall. Great work, Chef AJ!
One of the best interviews I have ever viewed with an articulate interviewer and guest. No "um", "you know," "like," etc.
I'll bet his ability to be easily amused such that he broke out and giggles so many times during your wonderful interview has a lot to do with it. Stress is a killer, and he really seems like a stress repelling dynamo I wish I could say the same for myself but alas, I am easily stressed. Thank you so much for this incredible treat !
He takes his bee vitamins, he says, and B12, those are stress killers that helps our stress BEE vitamins
His sense of humor and joy have extended his life.
Indeed, he didn't seem stressed and is positive. "God bless the beans, God bless the beans"😂
Enjoyed listening to Dr Sharffenberg! Very wise man. I hope I look so good in my 90's. ❤
Dear Dr Scharffenberg, you are full of inspiration and wisdom. I can listen to you all day without being bored. Stay bless amen
Wow, amazing man! Sharp as a tack and a wealth of knowledge. What a treasure!
Dr. S. has wonderfully contagious laughter and AJ you have a beautiful smi!e! Wonderful interview!!!!
This Doctor is a treasure !!! I really regret not knowing about him !!! Lots of love from California
Wooow Dr Scharffernberg , this is great, I hope to change my life style. Sure we need to start with ourselves ,then our communities. I wish to get connected with your family and assist our people in Kenya.❤
Delight to listen to 99 year old Dr John..can't wait for December 15th
My dad is 101 years old. he had the best eating habits. he is not fond about food. only 2 meals a day and very light meals. he eats vegetables, meat, milk and all types of food he likes. He doesn't eat between meals.
Sugar has become the culprit for almost everything that ails us. I believe much of this can be eliminated with exercise. Too much of anything can turn into a problem.
Wow this man, is a jewel. I am so glad, you had him, on your show. I always wanted to talk with a person this age. I would like to hear, from him again. I will save this pod, to refer, back to him!
A physician with valuable knowledge collected from years of experience. A true gem. Thank you so much!
Wow... Thats Great. I am from India. So Happy to hear from You...
Respect to every vegetarian . And this one is not only intelligent , but educated too . May he live long and healthy
As a 7 days adventist he believes that the earth is created in 7 days even after studying sciences! So intelligent ?
I enjoyed meeting Dr. Scharffenberg; I am new to this way of eating and am still working on perfecting this diet. Thank you for your informational podcasts
What an amazing gentleman that has much wisdom and we should all pay better attention to what we put in out bodies. Thank you for having him on your show. I am so impressed how sharp and on point he is!!!
I have so much respect for him. And every time he laughs i just wanna cuddle him, he's so adorable! Bless him.❤❤❤❤
Thank you Chef Aj so blessed to hear from Dr.Scharffenberg and my Mom will turn 101 this year in August she still eat food by herself but after she felt she can't walk but she do excercise daily now I understand excercise is important
What an amazing gentleman.
Good man, good knowledge, advice, and wisdom from a long life.
Thank you Chef AJ for this interview!
I learned a lot this 99 year old Doctor what an inspiring story, I’m 67 years old with so much health issues it woke me up what I’ve been doing and eating is so wrong, thank you doctor and me and my husband might move to Fresno as well after living in the Bay Area for so long. Thanks for sharing your story Dr. ❤️🙏
Great talk. Praise for Chef AJ too
My dad (93, a runner and fitness enthusiast) will agree that exercise is a wonder drug for living a long productive life, other than plant based eating. I am 66 and turned vegan from vegetarian last year, thanks to Doctor McDougall. Exercise certainly keeps me going! I run and coach tennis.
😊
If one is vegan even the P part is still vegan. Loved your show and guest. Even as I’m 75 I still learned lots from Dr. S. Thank you so much. Vegan since 1985. Cheers and blessings.🙏🏻
BLESSINGS DOCTOR, AND I WISH YOU LIVE LONGER. NOT BEING SELFISH WITH SHARING SUCH USEFUL INFORMATION. GOD BLESS YOU SIR.
Omg! This man is a blessing! I love the way he laughs!!
Ho, Ho, HO! Dr. S. was my professor in the Public Health Master’s program at Loma Linda University in the 1970’s! Also my Great-grandmother who lived to 104, was a German Jewish member of the Wolf family! SO! That means that Dr. S. and I are probably cousins! Awesome! I STILLL LOVE Dr. Sharffenberg and try to live the best diet lifestyle!
Inspiring! Thank you so much. Dr Scharffenberg, you're a wonderful. Thank you and God's blessings on you and your work. Just wonderful.
He's right about all of this! And don't drink alcohol. I lived a pretty clean life-diet, exercise, but at age 45, I adopted a habit of drinking a glass of red wine or two every day. I thought it was good for my heart, and I loved how it helped me to relax. After 20 years of a daily wine habit, I developed breast cancer. I have no breast cancer genes and no one in my vast immediate or extended family has ever had breast cancer. I blame myself for my own misguided choice. And no. I do not drink any alcohol now.
Dr. Scharffenberg is beautiful. Thank you for sharing this information! Pure joy!
HI AJ,so nice to see your channel,where we explore the fountain of youth.Im 65,but look like im in my early 40's.Im totally into this.Just checked out your website,you look SUPERRADIANT.I have to share this with you cause no one seems to be talking about this.,when sharing they'er secrets of Health and Longevity.Iam a Healing Arts Instructor.I practice and Teach various aspects of the Healing Arts,such as Tai Chi,Chi Gung & Yoga,etc.What im about to share with you is becoming rapidly known in the general health feld.The Tibetians have been practicing a form of Chi Gung called, The5 Rites,also known as the 5 Tibetians,for 100's of yrs.Today they are now called THE FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH,because they have been found to REVERSE THE AGING PROCESS.The 5 simple exercises balance the 7 Chakra energy system,which governs your health and well-being.If people add a form of exercise that specifically balances the chakra's they are highly likely to enjoy Robust Health and Fitness, well into they'er 80's,90's,and beyond,by doing just these.Were Multi dimensional,so of course the other 3 bodies have to be attended to.Yes, i practice them.Just google Fountain of Youth,by Peter Kelder.Book available Amazon,or possibly your local Library.Word should be spread far and wide about ,..THE FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH EXERCISE BOOK.
God Bless these people for sharing great information! Cheers to 120!
Chef AJ, I love the way you interview. You don't interrupt and you keep the conversation going.
Congratulations, Doc! You look and sound wonderful and what an inspiration! Keep on going and God bless you!
By brisk walking in the fields where there are lots and lots of trees and greeneries, I have managed to cure myself of a bloated tummy, which had bugged me for several years following menopause!
TREES HAVE HEALING POWERS!
Thoroughly enjoyed Dr. Scharffenberg. His sense of humour is one of his longevity secrets!!!!!
🙏 Thanks so much Dr J.Sharffenberg for the great advice. Watching from London England
Love this man and love this interview. What a great attitude and laugh! Thank you for your wisdom Dr. S.!
Thank you for this delightful and knowledgeable gentleman. One of his secrets is a great sense of humor.
Yes, this is a long video but watch the whole thing. The surprise guest and the great, warm conversation is golden. Love this video. It’s wonderful record of Dr. Scharffenberg’s life for future viewing.
⛳️Long video by 99 yrs young is a rare & true treasure..so no complain. 🙏🏻
Plz watch this whole video.
Bless your heart AJ for not interrupting him when he was blathering on about the problem with veganism vs. vegetarianism. The misinformation was astounding! You should have mention the Seventh Day Adventists study. The EPIC Oxford bone study has been debunked. The countries with the highest dairy consumption have the highest fracture rate. Spinach is a good source of iron … and why would we want that book?
He so sweet, he teach me so much, after having two cancer have a blessed life 💖
Amazing! I adore his sense of humor! Brilliant Dr. Scharffenberg!
What a beautiful man, his mannerism and smiles reminds me of my dad, when he said "where did It come from" no body knows? Only that man dad has passed on. God Bless you Dr Sir, your memory is sharper than a teenagers. Thank you Chef Aj for bringing this wealth of knowledge to everyone. I appreciate it. I posted it to my family members and anyone that cares for Good health.
Excellent!! Thanks so much for having Dr Schaefernberg on. His knowledge on nutrition is second to none. Loved this xxx
Oh man, my Great Uncle John! So happy you had him on!
It would be just great for Dr. Scharffenberg to have his website with ALL his invaluable information about how to lead a healthy life!
We all need to be more in touch with nature!
Where can we get a copy of the laminated nutrition guide? He’s a wonderful inspirational speaker! Thank you Chef AJ!
Love listening to this great Dr sharing his real life experiences on longevity. I am a vegan lover and will practice it for life. I am highly inspired by Dr.Sharffenberg’s formula on how to live a long and happy life. More power to the brilliant host!
