5 Tips for Longevity

 

  1. Eat a healthy diet: A healthy diet is essential for longevity. Choose foods that are high in nutrients and low in unhealthy fats, added sugars, and salt. Focus on eating a variety of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats.
  2. Exercise regularly: Regular physical activity can help you maintain a healthy weight, reduce the risk of chronic diseases, and improve your overall health. Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity exercise per week.
  3. Get enough sleep: Sleep is important for maintaining physical and mental health. Adults should aim for 7-9 hours of sleep per night. To improve your sleep quality, try to establish a consistent sleep schedule, avoid screens before bedtime, and create a relaxing sleep environment.
  4. Manage stress: Chronic stress can take a toll on your physical and mental health. To manage stress, try practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing, meditation, or yoga. You can also try talking to a therapist or counselor, or participating in activities that you enjoy.
  5. Stay socially connected: Strong social connections have been linked to better health outcomes and a longer lifespan. Make an effort to connect with friends and family, and participate in activities that you enjoy with others.

By following these tips, you can improve your overall health and increase your chances of living a long and fulfilling life.

How Long Can We Live?

 

The world is home to roughly 500,000 individuals who are 100 years old or above. This figure is expected to double with each passing decade. Even if the probability of old-age mortality is still constant at 50:50, the surging universal membership in the 100+ club should reflect on the spike in the oldest individual alive by roughly one year every decade, according to an aging researcher Joop de Beer at the Netherlands Interdisciplinary Demographic Institute.

Lots researchers state that they aspire to understand more about what is going on with the balancing of the death rates in older individuals. A geneticist from the McGill University of Montreal, Siegfried Hekimi, says that the human cells ultimately arrive at a point where repair techniques can lead to more harm to keep death rates balanced.

He says: “Why this plateaus out and what it means about the process of ageing – I don’t think we have any idea.” For a geriatrician from the Mayo Clinic of Rochester, Minnesota, James Kirkland, the prominent prop for a mortality plateau refers to the risk of avoiding death at any age.

A few experts say that the very weak can not be repaired. But if the possibility of dying does not surge with time, actions that work for the anti-aging will probably make a difference, in the case of ultra old people, too, he says.

Not everyone agrees with this argument or the results of the newest paper. The co-writer of the 2016 Nature paper, Brandon Milholland, claims that the proof of the mortality plateau is minimal because the research included less than 100 individuals who had a lifetime of 110 years or more.

A longevity scientist from the University of Chicago in Illinois, Leonid Gavrilov, observes that even tiny mistakes in the aging Italian records can result in a false result.

Others state that the results of the study are biologically impossible. “You run into basic limitations imposed by body design,” as said by a demographer from the University of Illinois, Jay Olshansky, observing that human cells do not replicate like brain cells and will continue to destroy and die with the age advancement, imposing upper limits on the natural human lifetime.

This research is then, not likely to be the final word on the debate of age and mortality plateau, states Haim Cohen – a molecular biologist from the Bar-Ilan University. He speculates that this debate will go on.

However, there is no debate that health supplements can not aid in reversing the aging clock. This is the reason why David Sinclair (a famed aging professor from Harvard and a biologist) religiously takes several supplements.

He has developed his own personal list of pills that he consumes daily. And lucky for you, he has shared this customized list with the world as everyone’s curiosity piqued. Sinclair takes:

 

  • Nicotinamide Mononucleotide
  • Resveratrol
  • Metformin
  • Vitamin D3
  • Vitamin K2
  • Alpha Lipoic Acid
  • Statin
  • Coenzyme Q10

 

Everyone is free to add these pills to their routine, but remember that Statin and Metformin are both prescription drugs.
