5 SECRETS TO LIVING LONGER

KNOW THYSELF
Think for yourself. Nobody knows more about your life than you do. Acting according to your inner self´s wisdom determines your destiny. Steer clear of allowing institutions, companies, bosses and others have power over you. Think for yourself, from within yourself.

HAVE A REASON TO GET UP IN THE MORNING
We´ve all heard stories about amazing people who die soon after retiring, so keep a purpose in life. Volunteering can be a very satisfying path. If you don´t have a burning passion then help those that do. Get involved, emotionally as well as physically and mentally.

LOVE THY NEIGHBOUR
It´s well documented that in regions where there´s a strong sense of community care, you´ve find a higher incidence of centenarians. Okinawa in Japan, for example, is reported as having the longest living people in the world as Japan in general has a tradition of community support.

EAT ANTI-AGING FOODS
Most experts say that the best anti-aging diets are those focusing on whole foods and liquids rather than vitamins and supplements. Recommended are foods high in essentially fatty acids, minerals, vitamins, and proteins as well as anti-inflammatory and low sugar diets, foods high in antioxidants (berries, grapes, red cabbage, beetroots, dark leafy greens, olive oil, dark chocolate, red wine as well as tea high in polyphenols.) Eating organic has recently been proven to deliver an increase in the percentage of nutrition compares with no organic foods. Steer clear of refined and processed foods. Eat more moderate amounts.
