Many long-livers have certain habits in common.

Apparently, it is these actions that allow such people to live to 80, 90, or even 100 years old.

So, what rules should you follow in order to live a very long time?

Move often

After retirement, many people experience a significant reduction in their physical activity levels.

The lack of activity needs to be compensated for.

For example, by doing simple physical exercises. And it is also worth going for walks every day.

By ignoring this rule, an elderly person will make it impossible to maintain muscle tone. In addition, problems with the heart, blood vessels and joints may worsen.

And moderate physical activity will increase your chances of longevity.

Eat right

In old age, you should eat sweets and fatty foods less often.

It is better to focus on protein foods (lean meat, fish). In addition, it is worth including more vegetables and fruits in the diet.

You also need to watch your calorie intake and portion sizes: overeating in old age is very bad.

Stay sociable

As they get older, some people make a serious mistake: they become “recluses” and practically stop communicating with people.

You shouldn't do that. You need to maintain your social circle, go on trips, take part in various events, find yourself hobbies.

Ignoring recommendations can lead to a decline in cognitive functions.
