Genetic and environmental factors play a role in a person’s lifespan, and health is the driving force that determines how long a person will live. According to MedikForum, the experts also talked about a number of measures that, according to them, can prolong life.
So, according to the charity organization The King’s Fund, there are several ways.
First of all, experts advise consuming more turmeric. This spice is a great option for an anti-aging strategy as it contains a powerful bioactive compound called curcumin. The anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties of this spice are believed to help support brain, heart, and lung function. Turmeric is also known to protect against cancer and age-related diseases such as Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia.
The experts also advised not to neglect the consumption of plants. A Western diet of processed foods, hidden sugars, high fat and high amounts of meat has been linked to premature aging and the development of cardiovascular disease. Despite being an extreme plant-based diet, the vegan diet has been shown to be effective in reducing the risk of obesity, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and some cancers that can cause premature death.
Another factor that allows you to achieve longevity is the production of the “happiness hormone” – serotonin. Stress management, priorities for happiness, and time for yourself all have to do with living longer.
Finally, experts advise you to learn a new language. The study found that those who spoke two or more languages for many years delayed the onset of Alzheimer’s, in some cases up to five years.
