He firmly believed in and practiced regular exercise and was riogorously abstemious when it came to food and alcohol. Benjamin Franklin's long health life was most probably a result of how he chose to live. He was light years ahead of his time living to eighty-four years of age when the average life span of the average man was forty-two.
