Spent a week in Portugal breaking every rule the NHS ever gave. I ate eggs daily. I had steak. I ate local sardines, cheese and bacon. Nothing out of a packet with 47 ingredients. And I sat in the sun with no factor 50. I slept like a baby and my nervous system had a full factory reset. No supplements, no app, just sun and real food. Meanwhile the locals in their 80s were marching up hills I needed a sit-down after. People talk about the Mediterranean diet like it's all vegetables and olive oil. But the reality is grilled fish, pork, lamb, eggs, cheese, animal fat. And red wine. People walking everywhere, sitting in the sun, eating late and slowly with family, and having a nap when they felt like it. Nobody rushing, nobody grazing on "healthy snacks", nobody living on cortisol and a meal deal. That's why they live longer. Not because someone drizzled oil on a lettuce leaf. It's the whole way they live, and you can't sell that in a bottle at the supermarket.
