Emma Morano, the world’s oldest living person
by Stefania Bufano
A 116-year-old woman from the northern Italian region of Piedmont, Emma Martina Luigia Morano, has become the world’s oldest person
Morano was still living alone in her home on her 115th birthday. When asked about the secret of her longevity, she said that she had never used drugs, eats three eggs a day, drinks a glass of homemade brandy, and savors a chocolate sometimes, but, above all, she thinks positively about the future. Morano credits her long life to her diet of raw eggs and being single.
