How a Man That Looks


20 at 50 Lives and What His
Diet Is Like
Read 6 comments

Chuando Tan is a photographer from Singapore


who attracted the attention of the whole world
to himself by not only taking photos of other
people but his own photos too. Why is this
so interesting, you ask? Chuando was born
in 1967, which means he is 51 years old now
but he looks as if he is 20. So what’s the secret?

Bright Side decided to find out everything and


learned how this person lives, what he does,
and what he eats. Perhaps we will find the
secret of eternal youth from this “Dorian Gray?”

How did it all start?

It’s known that this Singaporean man used


to work as a model in the 1980s; he even
managed to become a pop singer in the ’90s.
But his career in singing didn’t last long and
that’s why Tan chose another activity —
photography. Once, instead of posting another
work of his, he posted a photo of himself and
that’s when it all started.

The photographer shared in one of his


interviews, “I started an Instagram account
because some friends told me that clients these
days would want to know how big a social
media following a photographer had. In order
to pepper my account, I posted several photos
of myself to share my thoughts in captions.”

The users instantly noticed that Tan doesn’t


change and doesn’t look as if he was 51 years
old. Some people think it’s all about genetics,
others that the secret is in the place he lives
because Singapore has clean air, good
medicine, and products of high quality. But
to be sure in those guesses, let’s see how the
photographer spends his day.

He eats 6 eggs for breakfast.

Tan sticks to the principle that you are what you


eat and believes that the health condition
of a person, as well as his appearance,
depends 70% on the food he eats and 30%
on exercises. That’s why he eats 6 hard boiled
eggs for breakfast with only 2 yolks (due
to cholesterol). Additionally, he drinks a glass
of milk and sometimes adds avocado with
berries to his breakfast. This is a good amount
of protein and energy for the beginning of the
day.

Apart from eggs, he eats chicken with rice,


grilled vegetables, and fish soup during the day.
The photographer admits that ice cream is his
weakness and that’s why he sometimes eats
it but only in the first half of the day. He also
avoids coffee and tea but drinks a lot of water.
He doesn’t smoke, doesn’t drink alcohol, and
eats a salad made of fresh greens for dinner.

He spends about 90 minutes


on exercise per day.

Tan does strength training 4 times a week,


or at least 3 times if he is too busy. He spends
no more than 30 minutes on this activity.
Strength training is always followed by cardio
training; however, due to a knee injury,
he doesn’t jog but walks at a fast pace
on a treadmill. Moreover, he tries to swim every
day — he attends a swimming pool in the
evenings and swims there for about an hour.

He does only what he likes


to do.

Perhaps it will sound trivial but how many of us


do what we really like and want to do? Perhaps
that’s the secret of eternal youth? Because
everything that you do affects the psyche and,
therefore, the whole body.

Tan says, “I have tried many different jobs and


stopped at what I really like. I love people, love
communication, love to set up a photo shoot,
and love to take photos. If you do what you
don’t like, then you’ll be feeling bad and,
of course, it won’t strengthen your health.”

He doesn’t use skincare items.

Some people are sure that Tan gets plastic


surgery and uses some special cosmetics. But
here is what he says, “I have sensitive skin
that’s why there are only 2 things I use daily:
gel face wash and moisturizing cream.”

Once he was gifted a Botox procedure. He tried


it but didn’t like the effect. He didn’t visit
cosmetologists since then. However, Tan admits
that he does use hair dye because of his gray
hair.

He doesn’t take a bath late.

In fact, he tries not to go to bed after 11 PM and


wakes up early every day. Tan is sure that
working at night and watching movies after
midnight don’t improve the health. In order
to get good sleep, he stops eating 5-6 hours
before going to sleep.

Chuando says, “Trust me, going bed early


is worth it. Having had enough sleep, you’ll
be able to do more things during the day
rather than if you work at night.”

So what’s the secret?


As it often happens — everything is very simple:
work that you love, a healthy diet, full-time
sleep, and exercise. Jared Leto, Chris Evans,
Margot Robbie, and many other celebrities stick
to the similar lifestyle. Do you agree that all
of them look younger than their real age?
Moreover, they claim that they haven’t had any
plastic surgery.

What lifestyle do you stick to? Please tell us


about it in the comments!

It's no big deal. I have a body of a 20 year old
aswell. But my fridge electricity bill is just too much.

Everyone isn't privileged like this guy either. I love to
swim, but I am lucky if I get to swim once or twice a
year. I don't have good access to pools where I live.
If I do go, there are weird rules like having to shower
with other women before I swim. Not comfortable.

Now, if this were a woman, so many people,
especially other women, would be jumping on here
to insult her and say stuff like "What"? "She looks
every bit 51", etc.
