I have learned quite well that a reflection on longevity goes well beyond acknowledging the brevity of human life and includes thinking about methods to extend life. Evidence-based studies indicate that longevity is based on two major factors: genetics and lifestyle choices. Here we engage in discussions of the latter. The many articles here are based on scientific study, that longevity is related in part to many lifestyle issues including a healthy social and family life, not smoking, limiting alcohol consumption, sleeping 7 to 8 hours per night eating a plant-based or Mediterranean style of eating and engaging in regular physical activity. We invite you to join the discussions.
