Get rid of 5 things to live longer
Research says that if you want to live longer get rid of the 5 things – smoking, overweight, inactivity, excessive alcohol and unhealthy diet.
“We found that following a healthy lifestyle can substantially extend the years a person lives disease-free,” said senior author Dr. Frank Hu, who chairs the department of nutrition at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health.
“In particular, women who practiced all five habits gained over 10 years of disease-free life, and men who did so gained almost eight years,” Hu said.
It’s actually simple – stop smoking, manage your weight, be active, drink alcohol responsibly and avoid junk foods.
