No magic needed, “I Dream Of Jeannie” star Barbara Eden has a different trick to staying young at 90.
Eden spoke to Closer Weekly about how she stays youthful and healthy and it all is down to food.
“I’m very careful about [my] diet,” Eden told the publication. “I’m a carnivore … I like steak. We eat a lot of pork, chicken, steak [and] vegetables.”

But Eden and husband of 30 years Jon Eicholtz both have a big sweet tooth.
“We don’t stint ourselves on desserts,” she said. “I eat a lot. I like dessert. I like gumdrops. Those are fun.”
Another favourite of Eden’s is the marshmallow circus peanuts– “They’re really good. I like them. They’re a holdover from my childhood.”

As for physical fitness, Eden walks “a lot” and was spinning.
“I was spinning and I had a trainer,” she states. “But I haven’t done that now [in] over a year since COVID-19.”
She also dished on how “lucky” she is.
“I think I’m really lucky to have a happy marriage. And a sister I adore. Family is very important. I think if you have it you’re really lucky,” Eden said. “I have friends … I don’t have a lot of them, but the ones I do have are really good friends. I think it’s important [to surround yourself with people that] keep active and have good senses of humour.”
