UNDERSTANDING LIFE EXPECTANCY
Life expectancy is influenced by a complex interplay of genetics, lifestyle, environment, and healthcare access. While genetics account for roughly 20-30% of longevity, lifestyle factors you can control make up the majority of your health destiny.
THE BLUE ZONES PRINCIPLES
Research on the world's longest-lived populations (Blue Zones) reveals common factors that contribute to exceptional longevity:
- Natural movement: Daily physical activity integrated into life
- Purpose: A reason to wake up each morning
- Stress management: Daily rituals to reduce stress
- 80% rule: Stop eating when 80% full
- Plant-forward diet: Beans and vegetables as dietary staples
- Moderate alcohol: 1-2 glasses of wine with food and friends
- Community: Belonging to a faith-based community
- Loved ones first: Close family connections
- Right tribe: Social circles that support healthy behaviors
