For M6, the actress Valérie Bonneton tested methods intended to slow down the effects of ageing. Review of the experience broadcast this Thursday, October 13 at 9:10 p.m.
What tempted you in this anti-aging journey?
VALERIE BONNETON: When my agent told me about it, I thought it was some kind of Meeting in unknown land and I thought I would say no. It’s not my cup of tea. When I understood that it was a real experience that touched on subjects that fascinate me, I was more attentive.
What specific topics are you interested in?
Everything related to nutrition. As a child, I never ate adulterated products. My mother cooked every day. I reproduced this diagram with my children. Even when I came home late, I cooked for the next day, I canned, like my mom did.
What limits have you imposed on yourself as a tester?
We were bound to nothing but our own limits. If something put us off or scared us, we didn’t do it. Fasting, for example, was a challenge. I was this close to saying, “I’m looking at you, go ahead.” But curiosity won out and I did.
What do you remember from all these experiences?
Brain strength is insane. It treats, it heals. I meditate more regularly. I also discovered the benefits of miso (fermented paste) which I use now. I have also considerably reduced my meat consumption, I eat more lentils, chickpeas…
Have you been tempted by cosmetic surgery?
From the start, I bet on hard work and my talent. I didn’t focus on my physique otherwise, at the first wrinkle, I was screwed. That’s also why I never hid my age (she’s 52, editor’s note). We must not give in to these injunctions. The only thing that matters is being alive.
