Living to 100 Club
How to Stay Healthy and Live Long
The National Institutes of Health has determined that genetics probably accounts for only 25 to 30% of a long life, while 70 to 75% is decided by lifestyle. This suggests that perhaps we have more control over our lifespan than previously thought – and that maybe our parents did as well.
We know much more today about what contributes to living longer. Many of these longevity lessons are from the Blue Zones, geographic areas around the world that are home to some of the world’s oldest people. The lifestyle traits include regular physical activity, alcohol in moderation, close social circles, a sense of purpose and meaning, commitment to families, plant-based diets, and sufficient sleep.
