It was successfully treated and the cancer did not return. Breuning did not have any other health issues until he broke his hip aged 108. He spent eight days in the hospital and was totally healed in 21 days. 11:26 < hprmbridge> Eli> 11:26 < hprmbridge> Eli> but continued eating two meals a day. He ate a big breakfast and a hearty lunch but skipped an evening meal, snacking on fruit instead. Breuning drank much water through the day plus a cup-and-a-half of coffee with breakfast and one cup with lunch. He got up every day at 6:15 am and had breakfast at 7:30 am. He then took a stroll around The Rainbow for exercise and could then be found sitting in 11:26 < hprmbridge> Eli> the lobby chatting with fellow residents and his many visitors. 11:26 < hprmbridge> Eli> 11:26 < hprmbridge> Eli> Overall, Breuning was in good health almost all of his life. His weight was around the same for the last 50 years of his life, 125โ€“130 pounds (57โ€“59 kg). Because Breuning was 5 feet 8 inches (1.73 m), his body mass index was around 19. For years Breuning took a baby aspirin every day, but he eventually gave that up, stating that he did not need it; from there on he took no medication. Breuning 11:26 < hprmbridge> Eli> believed another key to his longevity was keeping his mind and body active. He performed daily calisthenics almost to the end.``` 11:26 < hprmbridge> Eli> ``` 11:27 < hprmbridge> Eli> This guy was a biohacker before biohackers existed.
