We buy the latest “quick weight loss/ body toning in 3 minutes a day” products, pop appetite suppressant pills, and seek out plastic surgery in the hopes of finding the perfect body as well as increasing our overall health but all we really need to do is follow some easy tips for real changes that last a lifetime.
Recent research has found that you can actually reduce your biological age, or your body’s age based on how you have treated your body over the years. You may only be 24 but have a biological age of 40 if you don’t exercise, have poor eating habits, are overweight, smoke, drink and on and on.
To turn back the hands of time follow these steps and potentially live longer:
Research has shown that you can live up to fourteen years longer if you
- Do not smoke
- Exercise for a minimum of 30 minutes at least 5 days a week
- Drink alcohol in moderation, if at all
- Eat at least 5 servings of fruits and vegetables each day
That’s it! By simply adopting these easy to follow tips you can reap the benefits of a longer, healthier life.
