How Ordinary People Can Live Longer
- Suppress chronic inflammation. Through anti-inflammatory diet and adequate sleep.
- Maintain insulin sensitivity. Eat in order: vegetables first, then protein, carbs last; strength training twice a week to maintain muscle mass — muscle is the buffer for blood sugar.
- Protect telomeres. Regular cardio. Eliminate all chronic stress. Stay socially active and avoid isolation.
- Protect the brain. Continuous cognitive challenges to maintain neuroplasticity.
- Find a reason to get out of bed. Make yourself happy to open your eyes, have a sense of purpose, don’t linger in bed. When you can perceive the meaning of your existence in this world, you will be healthy.
