Costa Rican senior Jose Flores is challenging the world record for oldest living person as he turns 119 years old. He has lived a life of labor in rural areas and currently maintains an active daily routine through walks and interactions with neighbors. Flores' diet is not special, consisting only of 'Gallo Pinto' (a rice and bean dish) with added cheese and banana, and he does not take any health supplements or follow a particular dietary regimen. He attributes his longevity to "working hard, believing in God, and eating healthy." Experts analyze that his active lifestyle and sense of community have contributed to his long life.
