Sister Andre, the world’s oldest person, reveals the secret to a long life.

Sister Andre, a French nun who recently established a new record for the oldest person alive, revealed the secret to living a long life: chocolates and a glass of wine every day.

“Her (daily) glass of wine keeps her going, which could be the key to her longevity. I’m not sure – I don’t recommend that folks drink a glass of wine every day!” a member of Sister André’s care home staff said

Sister Andre has been alive for 118 years and 73 days. Guinness World Records announced the new record holder after Kane Tanaka, the world’s oldest person, passed away lately.

Tanaka had previously held the distinction of Europe’s oldest lady before her death.

She was born on February 11, 1904, according to GWR. She witnessed some of the world’s most significant events, including World War I, the Spanish Flu, and World War II.

In 2021, Andre also broke the record for being the oldest COVID survivor.

She is currently residing at a Toulon nursing facility.

Sister Andre now wants to beat Jeanne Louise Calment’s record of becoming the world’s oldest person, who lived to reach 122 years and 164 days old when she died.

Calment’s record, she believes, is “within her reach, if she’s going to stay on Earth.”
