In recent decades, scientists have started to understood how aging works. More and more data demonstrates that certain lifestyle choices can directly impact our life expectancy. But how can we ensure that we live long and healthy? Let's find out!
Sleep: Good sleep (defined as sleeping 7-8 hours a night, having no troubles falling/staying asleep, feeling rested, using no sleep medication) has been shown to decrease the risk from heart disease and cancer.
Stress reduction: Chronic stress has been shown to increase the risk of heart disease, autoimmune disease or Alzheimers disease. Although short periods of stress can be beneficial for us, chronic stress can damage our bodies!
Social interactions: Family/friends/pets have been shown to reduce the risk of autoimmune disease, dementia, Alzheimers disease or obesity. There are different explanations for this, some being that we are physically more active when we have family or friends and take care better of ourselves.
Exercise: Exercise has been shown to reduce age-related muscle loss and support healthy aging. Especially aerobic exercises and strength training are recommended!
Diet/Obesity: Special diets have been shown to be linked to increased life expectancy. Longevity-associated diets generally include a high intake of vegetables, legumes, and dairy, a moderate intake of whole grains, fruit fish, and white meat, and a low intake of red meat, eggs, sugar-sweetened beverages, and refined grains. These are all lifestyle choices we can influence and, therefore, increase the chances to live long and healthy!
