How do I stay healthy and live over 100?
My top 5.
1. Stop backwards.
The majority of people over 70 are overweight, sedentary, and eat junk. Add to that smoking anything
and consuming excess alcohol and it’s no wonder people die young. Instead, before anything else,
stop heading backward and start walking forward. And it’ll take you a long way towards 100.
2. Natural health.
The majority of people over 70 in the U.S. take prescription drugs. The most prescribed include drugs
to control cholesterol, blood pressure, pain, type 2 diabetes, and indigestion. All have listed potential
serious side effects. Instead, learn how to build health naturally instead of pharmaceutically. And head
towards 100.
3. Purpose.
The majority of people over 70 are retired. They spent a lifetime with a purpose to live. Then they retire,
struggle with boredom, and often have little purpose to live a long time. And too often die young.
Instead, keep working at something you enjoy which gives you purpose and a reason to live long. And
keep living to 100.
4. Love.
Many people over 70 live lonely lives. Their spouse may be gone. Their children live at a distance.
, Friends have passed. And they find themselves lonely with little motivation to live long. Instead,
engage with those you love and make new friends. Loved people live long. And love living to 100.
5. Expect.
Many people over 70 sort of shut down in life. They figure life is short anyway so they might as well do
exactly what they want. Watch TV, eat and drink what they want, and not do anything they don’t feel
like doing. Unfortunately, their expectation becomes their reality. Instead, expect you can live long if
you live smart. Then, more than likely, your expectations will become reality. And hopefully to 100.
Certainly, living to 100 isn’t guaranteed for any of us. But pursuing the wrong things will probably
guarantee you won’t. It’s your choice.
