Follow this advice and you'll increase your chances of growing older increases quite a lot, and you'll stay healthier in your older years as well.

There is only so far these things can take us though. A lot of (but still too little) research is being done on slowing down or maybe even reversing aging, which could increase our lifespan to 150 (or maybe even longer). Not only would we live longer, but we would stay healthier for longer as well.

If you're interested, make sure to check out the longevity subreddit[0], some longevity discords[1][2]. Also make sure to read Lifespan by Dr. David Sinclair[3] and/or Ageless by Dr.Andrew Steele[4]

Some other things to keep an eye on:

  - Blood pressure
  - Resting heart rate
  - Brush teeth twice a day
  - Reduce meat
  - Don't smoke
  - Reduce alcohol
  - Avoid stress
  - Your mental health

Thanks for the links.

ps: the discords are a bit slow activity though IIRC

Why brushing teeth is so important?

One reason is that it's an interface to your bloodstream. Infection under gums can leak pathogens to your heart.
