Sustainable lifestyle campaign with Sofonie Dala -Angola. Part 2, webisode 9
Our everyday motto is: "Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food"
Today we are visiting a 116 year old woman. She is called grandmother Graciana Nambuano. We came to her to understand the secret of a long life.
The video also shows beautiful trays and various decorations that this elderly woman makes in her daily routine.
According to her children and grandchildren, long time ago grandmother Graciana used to sell her works of art, but now she offers it to people for love.
Grandma couldn't talk to us because she was resting, but her grandchildren told us about the sustainable lifestyle she lives.
A conversation with her grandchildren
The grandmother lives in Luanda at her children's house and does not speak Portuguese, she is 116 years old and has given birth to 8 children. 6 died and she was left with only 2 sons.
She still has the strength to work, manufactures baskets with her own hands, sweeps the yard and cooks when she wants. When at home there is no one to cook, she takes the stove and prepares her food.
She eats almost everything, eats beans, but salt and oil can no longer be used in her food.
Does she consume something that harms her health?
She doesn't consume any of this. She doesn't smoke and doesn't drink alcohol, the only thing she consumes is soda, she really likes to drink soda but we are already cutting it due to the gas that can harm her. But she normally drinks traditional drinks, for example Quiissangua - tree juice drink and kissângua or ocissangua (a typical southern drink made from corn).
