A Jamaican herbalist who claims to be 141 years old has gone viral after sharing her secrets to longevity: a strict raw food diet, herbal remedies, and working in sync with the moon.
In a video circulating online, the woman, Mama Lilly, explains how she maintains perfect health without modern medicine.
The Secrets to 141 Years
When asked how she’s lived so long, she responds plainly: “I don’t have no sugar, no pressure, no heart attack, no pain.”
She still farms her own food and prepares her own herbal medicines, a practice she’s followed for decades.
Her regimen isn’t just about what she consumes—it’s when she prepares her remedies.
“I work with the moon,” she says.
She soaks and boils herbs according to lunar cycles, harvesting ingredients before the full moon for maximum potency.
“The Most High gave us every leaf of the tree for healing,” she explains, referencing biblical wisdom.
Food as Medicine
Her philosophy is simple: “Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.”
She avoids processed foods, relying instead on raw, natural ingredients. “Taking care of you is your responsibility,” she says, emphasizing self-reliance in health.
While her exact age hasn’t been verified, her vibrant energy and sharp mind have captivated viewers.
Whether or not Mama Lilly is truly 141, her message—rooted in tradition and nature—resonates in an era obsessed with quick fixes and pharmaceuticals.
