Has Katey Sagal discovered the Fountain of Youth?

Not exactly. Although, it's certainly understandable that folks might think that.

After all, it's hard to believe the Sons of Anarchy star actually turned 60 this past January. (Yes, 60!)

So, what is her secret?

"I take really good care of myself," Sagal told ABC News while attending the premiere of the upcoming FX series Fargo in New York City this week. "I don't smoke and I don't drink. I sleep a lot. I just think it's an inside job too. I think it's attitude, a lot of it's attitude. I try to have a good one."

Speaking of attitude, Sagal also noted that, even though Sons of Anarchy will soon be heading into its final season, she remains upbeat.

"I haven't gotten sad, I'm sort of not in that yet," she said. "I'm just not thinking about that. I suppose it will be sad. This one, I'm sure there will be sad moments, but it has been an amazing ride."

Indeed.

Not only did the series earn Sagal a Golden Globe win in 2011, but the program has become so popular that Sagal gets recognized more these days as Gemma Teller than Peg Bundy, her character on Married With Children.

"Now, it's more about Gemma," she told Billboard toward the end of 2013. "I did used to get it all the time, but not so much anymore."
