 Life is the main value of a modern person, therefore, the increase in duration should be a problem that worries everyone. One way or another, we all want to live longer, see great-grandchildren, etc. But due to the high pace of modern life, there is often not enough time to think about this problem.
Below are some simple tips to help you lengthen your life.
To begin with, you should remember that life expectancy is approximately 70% determined by a person's lifestyle and only 30% - by genes. But the results differ among different researchers, for example, you can often find a ratio of 80 to 20, respectively. So even if you have a bad heredity (for example, early death of relatives from diseases of the cardiovascular system), this is not a reason to give up and “burn your life”.
So, firstly, you need to try to settle in an area with good ecology. Doing this in modern smog-covered cities can be very difficult, and moving in and of itself can be a nearly impossible task. But you still need to choose the best available option. Perhaps a good ecology will cost you, for example, a lot of time to travel to work, but health is still more important, isn't it?
Secondly, one of the main conditions for a long life is constant physical activity. It doesn't matter what exactly you do (running, swimming or, for example, strength sports). With the correct preparation of a training program, they all have approximately the same effect on life expectancy. The main thing is that your chosen sport becomes literally a part of your life. It is balanced physical activity that allows you to avoid problems with the heart and blood vessels, diseases of which are leading in mortality.
Third, your diet should be balanced. This does not mean that you need to stick to some trendy or sophisticated diets... Also, giving up meat is unlikely to be the right decision. It is necessary to greatly limit the consumption of obviously harmful products. Refuse, for example, from any chips, crackers, cheap and synthetic sauces, etc. It is also necessary to significantly limit the consumption of sweet and starchy foods. Salt, which retains water in the body and increases blood pressure, should preferably be replaced with other spices.
But this does not mean that your diet should consist of only a few "particularly healthy" foods. You need to eat varied, because there is a huge amount of vegetables and fruits in addition to cucumbers and tomato, apples and oranges.
Fourth, you must do something that brings you joy and a sense of being in demand in society. Here a lot depends on subjective factors. Try to devote your life to work to which you "have a heart." The same principle applies to the family: warm relations of love, respect and mutual understanding should reign in it. Simply put, you must be needed by someone, then you will have an incentive to live longer.
Fifth, try to avoid any stress. This applies not only to family relationships (which is obvious), but also, for example, films and books. Modern culture is filled with works with the help of which the authors seek to shock and interest the public by any means. Try to limit contact with such works of art, this can significantly increase your life expectancy.
Sixth, remember to get regular medical checkups. This can be boring or even expensive, but it will allow many diseases to be detected early, when they are amenable to full treatment. People often die from some kind of terrible disease simply because they were too lazy to go to the doctor on time. Remember, your health is the most precious thing you have.
We hope these tips will help you live a long and happy life!
