The truth about aging is that you have the ability to live 35 percent longer than expected with a greater quality of life and without fragility according to book Staying Young by Drs. Michael F. Roizen and Mehmet Oz.
Despite what you think, aging - in the traditional way that we think of it, with everything slowly and painfully shutting down - isn’t meant to be. A lot of people think that creaky joints, craggy nails, and cranky bowels are simply part of the deal, and you get to live to eighty-something; then, in exchange, you’re going to have your fair share of misery along the rest of the way.
The real secret to longevity isn’t whether or not you break; it’s how well you recover and repair when you do. Our bodies weren’t designed not to break down. They were designed with a great efficiency and ability to repair themselves. As with a car, you’ll get a lot more mileage out of your car if you perform routine maintenance. Aging is essentially a process in which your cells lose their resilience; they lose their ability to repair damage because the things aren’t working the way they should. But it’s within your power to boost that resilience and keep your vehicle going an extra couple hundred thousand miles.
Many of us like to think that aging is a magical process that happens deep within our bodies. Actually, aging is not only about those cellular processes, but, more important, it’s how you respond, adapt to, and deal with the stressors that affect you from the outside - things like sun, stress, your business, your relationships, your friends, your happiness and your life. What does that mean? It means that aging is really about the rate of aging - specifically, how the outside and inside factors accelerate or decelerate your aging. Here’s the big secret about aging: Your rate of aging doubles every eight years. So, if we were able to maintain a forty-year-old’s rate of aging for the rest of our lives, we would live past age one hundred twenty and die of old age. While inside out and outside in both play a role - and both influence each other - your job is to try to manage both forms, so that you slow the real culprit in growing old: the rate of aging.
In life the small problems may not have a big effect on our health and we don’t pay attention much. The body gives us symptoms and signs here and there, but we don’t listen and understand. But when they grow, and when they interact with other problems, they create chaos and much bigger problems in the body. That’s when seemingly small health problems spiral into bigger ones - all possibly triggered by several different causes. Most people think aging is a landslide of a process, that we’re destined to use walkers and hearing aids and thick glasses no matter what. We need to have strategies how to drive our systems so that they work in our favor, to create leverage points in life. And the great thing is that it’s never too early or too late to start making these changes. You don’t need a complete repair, because, frankly, your body is a pretty fine piece of machinery. What you’ll ultimately do is finding and fixing your own personal weak links - the things that make you most vulnerable to the effects of aging. The cumulative effect of those bumps can be huge when it comes to increasing the length and quality of your life.
The truth about aging is that you have the ability to live 35 percent longer than expected (today’s life expectancy is seventy-five for men and eighty for women) with a greater quality of life and without fragility. It is means you can get to one hundred or beyond and enjoy a good quality of life along the way. While relying on doctors, what you really want is to avoid it in the first place. Moderate diet, increasing your strength, reduce stress, enhance immune system, lose weight and getting quality sleep are the nature’s best anti-aging medicines. Together, these activities control 70 percent of how well you age. Wouldn’t you want to hold the power of your future in your hands, rather than put it in someone else’s?
Just because you’ve made mistakes in the past doesn’t mean you can’t reverse them. Even if you’ve had burgers for breakfast or fried your brain cells with stress, you’re not necessarily destined to be in poor health. No matter what kind of life you’ve already led, aging is reversible. If you perform a good habit for three years, the effect on your body is as if you’ve done it your entire life. Even better, within three months of changing a behavior, you can start to measure a difference in your life expectancy.
Our goal here at Holistic Preventive Clinic is to ensure that you have a high quality of life until whatever time you have. Nobody wants to spend their golden years on liquid diets, suffering from bedsores, or not remembering the previous nine decades. You want to feel like you’re thirty even when you’re eighty. You want to have the wisdom of a grandparent without feeling like one. After all, living longer shouldn’t be about “taking longer to die,” - and taking longer to live. You want to live long and live well. You want to feel alive while you’re living. You don’t want to grow old. You want to stay young. This is the way to go.
| Image may be NSFW. Clik here to view.  | Best Place in the World for Men Today, the life expectancy of men is 5 years less than women. However, the same does not hold true for Iceland, as the difference in the life expectancy between the two genders is narrower. Iceland is the best country for them, as they can avoid premature deaths. The reason for this is not really known. It is possible that because Iceland is a small country and the violent deaths due to crimes do not occur that often. Now combine this with a good health care system and what you would get is men living longer than before. |
Best Place in the World for Women
Cyprus gets the award of being the best place for women to live in, as premature deaths are very rare. Once again, Cyprus is a small nation, just like Iceland. So possibly the same reasons apply, or it could be a simple chance that women have longer life expectancy in this tiny island nation.
South Asian Women
Just three decades ago, women in South Asia were at the high risk of dying prematurely
compared to women in other parts of the world. However, this risk has been reduced and now women of South Asia have a much better life expectancy.
Countries from former Soviet Union
Countries from former Soviet Union are actually not coping as well as they used to. In 1970, Russia occupied the forty-third position for female mortality and in 2010, she was at the 121st position. According to health experts the decline in female life expectancy in the former Soviet Union could be due to the collapse in the health care systems.
The Worst Place in the World
Unfortunately, the number of premature deaths in the sub-Saharan region makes this the worst place in the world where premature deaths are concerned. Most deaths are occurring due to a widespread AIDS epidemic. Swaziland happens to have the worst life expectancy for men, while Zambia for women.
US too is Experiencing Lowered Life Expectancy
US was on the 34th position for women and 41st position for men in 1990 where life expectancy was concerned. This has taken a plunge even though the country spends a huge amount on its health care. In 2010, the US occupied the 49th position for women and 45th position for men. According to researchers, this decline in life expectancy is primarily because of large number of people in the country are overweight and a sizeable percentage are obese. Though people in US live longer, their global life expectancy is down.
Child and Adult Mortality
Unfortunately, nearly 8 million children across the globe die every year before they reach their 5th birthday; and 24 million adults die before seeing their 60th birthday. Most of these deaths are preventable if nations adopt proper health care and introduce other facilities, such as sanitation and clean drinking water.
