Top 5 Things To Do in Your 50s for Longevity

[@richardmallon1065]

Hello, How is everybody? I'm 52 years old and I feel younger than this age, my days start at 4:a.m and end at 9:.p.m, no smoking, neither alcohol, once in a blue moon some red wine only. A exercise routine 6 times a week very early in the morning, that's all. A warm regard.😊😊

I grew up on a blue zone diet. Seventh day Adventist parents. Our grocery list was simple. 1 berries and oatmeal . Usually at breakfast A legume with an ancient grain A leafy green A nut Fill the rest of the day with what ever but get these in. We eat a legume at every meal. Peanut butter on toast, hummus for lunch, chickpeas in a side salad. Take your meds as food. I’m 54 am not on any prescriptions that said, I do have plenty of down falls I do love coffee, salt on my avocado, tea with my popcorn, wine with my thoughts. Diet is important.

For menopause the best thing to do is to start HRT (hormonal replacement therapy). The things he's mentioning have estrogen but in a light way.

THIS!!! Sugar 100% is poison. It tastes GREAT!!! Buuuuuuut...when you get older, as your metabolism slows down, sugar is silently destroying your internal organs & continuing to pile on weight. If you want a healthy heart, DRASTICALLY cut your sugar intake (if not cut it altogether). Ask your doctor...😷😷😷

If you are sedentary you don't need as many carbs. But not a rule for everyone, It's all depends on your activity level and insulin sensitivity i.e If you train hard enough to deplete your stored glycogen stores then simple carbs (sugar, glucose ect) is 100% fine and actually beneficial.

I believe from my own experience with various doctors is the failure to take blood pressure correctly. We really have to ask are these studies accurate as it being their blood pressure are taken correctly. In every doctor visited, they don't follow the protocol of correctly taking it. They don't ask when was the last meal eaten prior to arriving to the visit because this would result in wrong blood pressure reading. They don't give you a time to relax before taking your blood pressure. That causes wrong blood pressure reading and they fail to not talk to you while taking your blood pressure. That will cause incorrect blood pressure and failing to have both your feet flat on the floor as well as arm on a desk leveled. That too causes incorrect blood pressure readings. So, we have to ask are these blood pressure studies being done under correct conditions.

I don't believe in social connection and longevity myth. It is extremely hard to make friends as you get older and I've seen plenty of older people who are single live alone. Money and health are more important than who you hangout with.

It's NOT a myth. Social connection is key. The mere fact that you think money is more important shows that you do not have a functional relationship with money.

@@POSS99 - To quote Jim Carrey: “I wish everyone could get rich and famous and have everything (materially) they ever dreamed of so they can see that's not the answer.” It's people who don't have even enough to live on - who think that money is the answer, when it's not. Which is NOT to say ignore money - quite the opposite - be responsible with money so you can use your time & energy concentrating on the important things in life like loving and being there for others, while discovering deeper levels of yourself as well.

I’ve heard mixed things about the cold before bed. I understood it as the cold will fire up the internal burners to warm yourself up. I have tried the reverse, doing a sauna before. I find I’m hot but then start to cool quickly. I also find I have an increased alertness when I do the cold, which seems counter to what I’d want right before bed. Maybe it has different effects on others.
