Health issues, improving the quality of life and its prolongation are always in the first place for any person. In a conversation with RuNews24.ru, Albina Gromova, a geriatrician, revealed the secret of prolonging life for 10 years with the help of five simple rules.
According to the interlocutor, daily physical activity will help strengthen the cardiovascular system and maintain muscle tone. To do this, it is necessary to exercise for at least 30 minutes moderately or 15 minutes intensively.
“A balanced diet rich in vegetables, fruits, proteins and healthy fats will definitely help prevent the development of chronic diseases and keep you energized. Of course, reducing stress levels through meditation, yoga or other relaxation techniques will help improve overall health and prolong life,” shared the publication.
The doctor noted that socializing with friends and relatives, participating in social events and volunteering also play a very important role in prolonging life. All these simple ways of socialization contribute to mental health and, as a consequence, increase life expectancy.
In addition, constant learning and developing new skills helps keep the brain active and prevents the development of dementia.
“It is important to be an active person at any age. Of course, it is necessary to get rid of bad habits - smoking and drinking alcohol have never added to anyone's health or prolonged life. Travel, eat right and tasty food, live this life with a full breast, then you will be happy for many more years,” summarizes Albina Gromova.
