Actually the way this question is worded makes it too easy.  If any diet
could halt the aging process, I for one would do aaaaaanything it takes,
anything, to make that happen, even up to and including complete celebacy.
Ooooh my, that would be painful to give up that one, but to halt aging, even
that is a deal.
