What keeps you fit and healthy?

An apple a day? Going to the gym a couple of times a week? Drinking a can of Diet Coke a day? Probably not the last one, to be honest. We can't really imagine any health experts absolutely jumping at the chance to add that particular drink to their diet-plans but sure look, a really old lady from Michigan has claimed it has its benefits and who are we to argue with her? WZZM13 has reported that the 104-year-old woman, Theresa Rowley, puts her impressively old age down to the one can of Diet Coke she drink a day. She said that she drinks it "because I like it."

"I'm going shopping Wednesday, and I need more Diet Coke. I have a bag full of empty Diet Coke cans that I need to return to buy more Diet Coke."

Rowley also said that she is "surprised" that she's 104-years old. "It just doesn't seem like I should be that old," she said. Rowley has lived in the Sentinel Pointe Retirement Community in Grand Rapids for the past 15 years. She said she can't remember exactly what year she moved to the area, but that she was born in 1914 and that she lived in North Dakota before moving to Michigan. The 104-year-old also admitted that she keeps expecting to pass away, but then she doesn't.

"When I was 100, I thought I'd never be 104; I thought I'd pass away by that time but it just didn't happen. Then I turn 101, and nothing happens. "Here I am 104, and still nothing happens."

Rowley celebrated her 104th birthday this week.
