Li Ching Yun, the man who lived 256 years

The 6 of May of 1933 in page 13 of the New York Times newspaper, a Chinese appeared esquela of Li Ching-Yun that survived 23 spouses, I leave 180 children and died at the age of 256 years. This obituario is an error or an exaggeration? Some investigators say that it is certain.  Li Ching-Yun died the 6 of May of 1933 was a herborista expert. He was martial medical instructor of the Tao and other disciplines of meditation and arts. It served like military tactical advisor and instructional of martial arts, long time in mountains retired and happened of Tibet, where it continued collecting medicinal grass that according to said helped him to stay young and healthful.

In 1927 Wann was invited to Hsien in province of Sichuan by his friend personal general Yang Sen, who was very interested in the force and youth that Li had, in spite of his outpost age. In the residence of this governor and caudillo it was realised at the age of 250 years, the unique existing photography of Li.

Mysteries of a life:

As anticipated, it is not known much about the first stages of the life of Li Ching-Yun. We know that it was born in the province China de Sichuan, where also it died. Also we know that in his tenth birthday, Ching-Yun was alphabetized and had traveled to Kansu, Shansi, Tibet, Annam, Siam and Manchuria for the harvesting of medicinal grass. After this, its life becomes a little blurred…

Apparently, for more than of one hundred years, Li continued selling its own grass, gathered by the same. Also one knows that to tapeworm the very long nails of his right hand, of but of 15 centimeters.

In 1930 professor Wu Chung-Chieh, dean of the department of education in the University of Chengdu, subsequent to found in the Imperial registries of the Government of China two congratulations of the emperor to Li Ching-yun in 1827 by his 150 birthdays and one the 200 years. Reason why if this data is rigorous serious an irrefutable test of the age of the man but longevo that never has existed.

The secret of the longevity:

In an article published by the Time magazine of the 15 of May of 1933 titleholder “Tortoise-Pigeon-Dog” (Turtle, dove and dog), one inquired on the incredible life of the teacher Li Ching Yuen and the answer was mentioned that gave Li to the secret of its long life:

“Mantén a calm heart,
Siéntate like a turtle,
it walks fast like a dove
and to duer to me like a dog.”

Its diet was based mainly on the rice and the wine of this cereal. Also it consumed gingseng and a little well-known plant, Asian Centella (Asian Hydrocotyl). Many scientists of the time made fun of of this and they did not dedicate attention to him to the subject, but a few visionaries were a little further on. Jules Lepine, French biochemist, found a powerful alkaloid of rejuvenecedores effects in the seeds of this plant.

The herboristas know of a longevity factor that owns the plant `Vitamin X of juventud' for the brain and the glands endocrinas' and also extracts of the plant are used to tackle problems about circulation and skin.

It is consumed in salad. The juice of the leaves is used for the arterial hypertension; also like tonic. Emplasto or cataplasm of leaves is used to treat sores and ulcers.

If history open pie by Wu Chung-chien in 1930 and related by the Time magazine and the newspaper The New York Times is certain, Li Ching-Yuen would surpass in but of 130 years the woman but longeva of the Earth, the Jeanne French Louise Calment who lived 122 years and 164 days.
