New Lifestyle Study
Authored by Kyle Golden (July 24, 2023)
A report based on nearly 720,000 military veterans between the ages of 40 and 99 was presented today at the annual Nutrition conference. The report reveals that eight key lifestyle factors could add up to 24 years to a man's life and over 22 years to a woman's life.
These factors aren’t new, but the study's significant number of participants included people of differing sexes, ages, socioeconomic status, race, etc. The eight key factors are:
Regular exercise
Avoiding opioid addiction
Avoiding all tobacco use
Managing stress
Eating a plant-based diet
No binge drinking
Getting plenty of sleep
Developing positive social relationships
Adding any one or a few of these factors could make significant improvements to anyone's life. Embracing all eight factors could have a dramatic, positive impact on your life. Moreover, it's never too late to start adopting these habits, no matter your age.
