The oldest woman in the world turns 118, she’s Japanese

01/02/2021 World

[ad_1]

The oldest person in the world, the Japanese Kane Tanaka, turns 118 today. Born on January 2, 1903, Tanaka had already been recognized in March 2019 by the Guinness Book of Records as the oldest woman on the planet at the age of 116, and last September she set the Japanese record at 117 years and 261 days. . Tanaka, a resident of a nursing home in Fukuoka, west-central Japan, celebrated her birthday by thanking the staff and everyone she shares daily activities with here.

According to reports from the treatment center, Tanaka does daily gymnastics, is capable of calculations, and is passionate about the Japanese board game Reversi, similar to Italian checkers. Tanaka usually has a good appetite, often likes chocolate, and occasionally indulges in a Coke. When asked what the secret to longevity was, Kanaka didn’t hesitate: “Eat tasty food and never stop studying.” His goal, added the ultra-centennial woman, is to reach 120 years.
