Lifestyle Impacts Life Expectancy… As Expected!

Unhealthy lifestyle choices, such as poor diet, lack of exercise, smoking, and heavy alcohol consumption, can significantly shorten life expectancy by up to 20 years and are responsible for 60% of premature deaths.

A large study involving health professionals identified five key lifestyle factors that can greatly reduce the risk of major diseases like type 2 diabetes, cancer, and cardiovascular disease.

These factors are never smoking, maintaining a healthy body weight, engaging in daily physical activity, following a high-quality diet, and consuming alcohol in moderation.

Adhering to these lifestyle choices can extend life expectancy significantly, free from chronic diseases, emphasizing the critical impact of a balanced diet and active lifestyle on overall health and longevity.
