Today’s post is a link to another post called “100 Ways to Live to 100: A Definitive Guide to Longevity Fitness.” The article goes over a variety of things to do and not do to improve your physical and mental well-being to live longer.
Because some of the concepts contradict one another you can’t do them all. But this article provides an inspiring way to try to live longer and healthier. Just making one change can have a huge impact. Work on getting 1% better.
My favorite item from this list is number 24:
Know it’s never too late
“One month of healthy eating will confer immediate results in the realms of cell regeneration, decreased inflammation, and improved digestion. Starting young is great, but it doesn’t matter how old you are. Meet with your doctor beforehand to get your bloodwork done. Then come back after and note the changes, specifically in vascular health.”
Instead of changing your whole lifestyle in one day to try to live longer, start with baby steps. Try replacing red meat with grass-fed or local red meat. Try adding one cup of veggies to one of your meals a day. Try to cook with olive oil instead of butter. Whatever you do, just take one step at a time!
