Habits To Add 14 Years

How would you like to add 14 years to your life? Who wouldn't? I know that when you are under 30 the idea of living forever is still lingering inside. But after 40 the idea of immortality begins to fade away and adding another 14 years to your life begins to take on some importance.

The University of Cambridge just completed a study showing that with some rather simple changes in your life style you really can extend your life a few more years. The results are definitely not a big "who would of thought of that". They are the same things that has been said for a long time.

1. Don't Smoke
2. Eat Fruits and Vegetables
3. Drink Alcohol In Moderation
4. Exercise Regularly

The big surprise for this study was not that these habits improve ones life, but how dramatic the benefits relate to an extended life. These benefits were seen regardless of whether people were overweight or what social class they came from.

There is no guarantee that if you make these changes to your lifestyle you are going to automatically gain 14 years of living. But your chances will improve considerably. Don't forget that when you take care of yourself by eating right, exercising, and not smoking, the you live will be more enjoyable because you are fit.
