Hi... The average age  a man lives is between 60 to 80 years. it is difficult to predict the years a person will live.. But I can say that your dad is in the right track by his present life stlye... This will prevent the complications one usually gets due to diabetes at his age..  Wish your dad all the best and he lives for many more years with happiness...:)
