How to Live a Long Life by Delaying Aging
How can one live longer? This question caught the interest of an American cardiologist 17 years ago. He began by studying patients over the age of 80 who looked significantly younger and more energetic. At the time, it was believed that longevity was dictated by genetics, as noted by https://xrust.ru/. So, the cardiologist, along with his colleagues, dedicated six years to sequencing the genomes of 1,400 people. All participants were 80 years or older, and none had chronic illnesses. To the scientists’ surprise, no genetic similarities were found. In other words, aging is not determined by DNA. It turned out that diet was one of the key factors. People should avoid processed foods. Next on the list was getting enough sleep. But most importantly, according to the researchers, was physical activity. Running and doing exercises with manageable loads were essential. This lifestyle was the common thread among the 1,400 individuals studied. Interestingly, most of these long-livers did not go to gyms. They trained at home, often using improvised tools or simply their own body weight.
