His secrets
When Chaundo started posting pictures of himself, his followers noticed that he doesn’t change and doesn’t look as if he was 51 years old. Some of his followers think it’s all about genetics, others have commented that the secret is in the place he lives because Singapore has clean air, products of high quality and good medicine. But now the photographer has gone out and shared his secrets with us.
Tan believes you are what you eat and believes that a person’s health, as well as their appearance, depends 70% on the food they eat and 30% on exercise. For that reason, he eats 6 hard-boiled eggs for breakfast with only 2 yolks (due to cholesterol). In addition, 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 start of the day.
Besides 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 plenty of water. He does not smoke, does not drink alcohol and eats a salad of fresh vegetables for dinner.

Tan does strength training 4 times a week, or at least 3 times when he’s 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 does not jog but runs on a treadmill at a brisk pace. In addition, he tries to swim every day – he goes to a pool in the evening and swims there for about an hour.

More tips
It may sound redundant, but how many of us do what we really love and want to do? Perhaps that is the secret of eternal youth? Because everything you do has an influence on the psyche and therefore on the whole body.
Tan says, “I’ve tried a lot of different jobs and stopped at what I really like. I like people, love communication, love setting up a photo shoot and love taking pictures. When you do what you don’t like , then you feel bad and of course it is not good for your health.”
Some people are sure that Tan undergoes plastic surgery and uses special makeup. But here’s what he says: “I have sensitive skin, which is why there are only 2 things I use on a daily basis: face gel and moisturizer.”
He was once given a Botox procedure as a gift. He tried, but did not like the effect. He has not visited beauticians since then. However, Tan admits that he does use hair dye because of his gray hair.
It’s clear that the secrets to looking young are eating healthily, working out, sleeping enough and doing what you love. Tan is the living example of the effectiveness of this lifestyle.

Read also: Siamese twins going viral after they shared this shocking news
Wow! Who would’ve thought?
Siamese twins Abby and Brittany Hensel became worldwide news after being born in 1990. It’s not often you hear about healthy Siamese twins being born. But 22 years later, the twins make an announcement that shocks the world.
Check out the next page to see what the twins are doing.
Back in the limelight
After their birth, the Siamese twins constantly surprised everyone. Because the two are stuck together, they did everything in their own unique way. From daily tasks to other successes. Over two decades after their birth, this shocking news put them back in the spotlight.

Rare way
Abby and Brittany Hensel were born on March 7th, 1990 in Carver County, Minnesota. When the sisters were born, the doctors discovered that they were attached in an unbelievably rare way. They’re known as dicephalic paragabus twins which means they share one body.
Small chance of survival
The Hensel twins had an extremely low chance of surviving. Siamese twins are of course very rare; about 1 in 189,000 babies is a Siamese twin. And only 11% percent of this already small population is born dicephalic paragabus. The chance of Abby and Brittany being born was extremely small.
Anatomy
One thing that still baffles doctors is the anatomy of the twins. Their upper bodies are their own, meaning two stomachs, two hearts, and four longs. But they share one lower body, and only have one reproductive system, one large intestine and a shared liver.

Other issues
Because of their unique anatomic make-up, the twins end up in a weird situation when they get sick. Abby can only experience uncomfortableness on the left side of her body. And Brittany gets unbelievable pains on her right side. If one of the sisters has stomach pains, the other sister has the same symptoms.
Incredible!
The two girls also have two different body temperatures. In their TLC reality show, Abby & Brittany, Brittany describes the split between their bodies as an imaginary red line through the middle. Brittany often feels warm and sweaty. But Abby doesn’t have a problem with it and in general feels totally fine.

Working as a team
The twins are capable of moving all body parts. This means that each one controls one arm and one leg. The twins therefore had to work together even as babies to be able to crawl and get walking. The older they got, they learned to swim, run, brush their hair and even driving side by side.

Driver’s license
The way they drive was shown on their reality show. Brittany explained that they both had to pass a driving test. “We have two driver’s licenses and when we got them, we both had to take the test – and we both passed,” she said.
Working well together
Each sister therefore controls their own half of their shared body. This means they have to work well together to be able to drive. Brittany added: “When we drive, Abby takes control of the gas and brakes. We both steer and I take control.” The sisters are confident driving because they find themselves to be good chauffeurs.
Not the same outfit
It’s still two sisters, with their own taste. So they know how to come to a compromise. In 2013, the twins told BBC that the two don’t always want to wear the same outfit. Abby: “We definitely have different styles. Brittany prefers neutral colors, pearls and that kind of stuff.”
