Agnes Fenton celebrated her 110th birthday on Saturday. The secret to her longevity? Three beers and a shot of scotch every single day. Johnnie Walker Blue Label scotch to be specific. She’s done this for almost 70 years.
According to Fenton, following a benign tumor diagnosis years before, a doctor told her, “Agnes, you must drink three Miller High Lifes a day.”
Fenton also credits God and prayer to her super-centenarian status. She told NorthJersey.com, “Without God, you’ve got nothing.”
Fenton, who is now cared for full time by a staff of caregivers, is no longer allowed to imbibe alcohol because of how little she eats. Her favorite foods are chicken wings, green beans and sweet potatoes.
Researchers who study supercentenarians said that while each person has his or her own secrets to longevity, alcohol consumption is not a consistent factor in the rare group, which includes only 1 in every 10 million people in the world.
