Just by doing four things, which is active for 30 minutes a day, eating fruits and vegetables, and avoiding excessive smoking and alcohol.

People can reach the age of 100 with a healthy lifestyle. However, Thomas Perls of Boston University School of Medicine, believes that with the assumption that puts genes aside, there’s nothing stopping you living up to the age of 90 years.

Here are 10 habits Perls used to calculate how long a person can survive, as reported by USNews, Tuesday (9/3/2010).

1. Do not retire.
Although already in the retirement age does not mean you can no longer work. “Evidence shows that in a society where people suddenly stopped working, the incidence of obesity and chronic disease increases after retirement,” says Luigi Ferrucci, director of the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging.

2. Floss Teeth Every day
This can keep the arteries (blood vessels) remain healthy. Studies from New York University in 2008 showed that flossing every day can reduce the number of bacteria that cause gum disease in the mouth. These bacteria can enter the bloodstream and trigger inflammation in the arteries, and increases the risk of heart disease.

3. Always move
“Sports is the only way to stay young,” said Jay Olshansky, a professor of medicine and aging researcher at the University of Illinois at Chicago.

Study after study has recommended that the benefits of exercise to improve mood, mental acuity, balance, muscle mass, and bone. No need to exercise at the gym, just by simply walking around the neighborhood for 30 minutes a day.

4. Eat high-fiber cereal for breakfast
Whole wheat benefited especially in the morning can help maintain stable blood sugar levels throughout the day. According to a study conducted recently by Ferrucci and colleagues, people who do this can prevent  diabetes, which could accelerate aging.

5. Sleep at least 6 hours a day
“Sleeping is one of the most important functions for our bodies, our body regulates and heal cells when we are asleep,” Ferrucci said.

6. Consumption of whole foods, not supplements
Evidence strongly indicates that people who have blood that is rich in nutrients, like selenium, beta-carotene, vitamins C and E, has a longer life. But there is nothing to prove that taking supplements can provide anti-aging benefits.

“There are more than 200 different carotenoids and the 200 different flavonoids contained in a tomato,” Ferrucci said. This chemical is beneficial to the body other than known nutrients such as lycopene or vitamin C. Avoid white foods (nutrient-lacking white food) such as bread, flour and sugar. And switch to fruits, vegetables, and whole wheat bread.

7. Reduce the neurotic (nerve pressure)
A better way to cope with stress is yoga, exercise, meditation, tai chi (take a deep breath in for a while). While in the other hand daydreaming, eating chips in front of the TV, partying and drinking to much alcoholic is bad for the body.

8. Live like Seventh Day Adventist
Americans who define themselves as the Seventh Day Adventists, have a life expectancy average of 89 years, about a decade longer than the average American.

They appreciate the body by not smoking, consume alcohol or pamper your body with sweet foods. They are usually vegetarian and eat fruits, vegetables, nuts, and do many sports. They are also very focused on families and communities.

9. Being a creature that used to it
According to Olshansky, people tend to live the old days with a strict routine, eating the same food and doing the same types of activities throughout their lives. Sleep and wake at the same time each day is one good habit to keep the body in a stable equilibrium.

10. Stay socially connected
Have social relationships with friends or loved ones is key to avoiding depression, which can lead to early death, particularly common to a widow and an elderly widower.

Some psychologists even think that one of the greatest benefits to be obtained from the parents exercise a strong social interaction, a walk with friends or join a training class.

Time and the quality of sleep could affects your weight. Enough sleep  for about 7.5 hours each night will not only help you stay healthy, but also ideal.

A number of issues about the relationship between sleep and weight loss may be going on inside of you. Therefore, a number of studies and research began to discuss these two things and the results began to be launched to the public.

The first question, is it true lack of sleep will cause weight gain? You try to think about it. If you feel sleepy at work, you may be tempted to grab a cup of coffee (or a few glasses) and a donut to increase your energy quickly.

Then, you neglect to go to the gym and take your family to eat outside, because there is no time to cook at home. When it’s time to sleep time, you will be hard for it. Of course this will cause bad effect to your body, lack of sleep can make a stretchy waist size and other health problems.

Of course it was easy to be understood. “While lack of sleep and felt tired and exhausted, you will automatically get a bag of potato chips or other foods that make comfortable. And started snacking, “said Susan Zafarlotfi PhD, Director of the Institute for Sleep and Wake Disorders, Hackensack University Medical Center in New Jersey, United States.

A direct result? You may be able to fight drowsiness. But the end result, consuming unhealthy foods as snacks, plus lack of exercise, it will lead to obesity and other losses.
“Lack of sleep such as credit card debt,” said Zafarlotfi. “If you continue to pile up credit card debt, you will pay a higher interest rate or your account will be closed until you pay for this. If the debt piled up too much, your body will break down, “he explained.

Lack of sleep is common in American society. In fact, proudly tells everyone about the shortcomings. “We appreciate to the ‘bat’, but we pay more for staying up late and getting up early,” said Mark Mahowald, MD, director of the Minnesota Regional Sleep Disorders Center at Hennepin County, the United States.

Then, how to understand the relationship between sleep and diet? The relationship between sleep and diet today is the most common issues raised in the books and magazine articles. Maybe you’ve heard about the diet to sleep, which allows you to lose weight while you sleep. That is true.

“It’s not just when you sleep will lose weight, but if you lack sleep, which means that you simply take a nap every day or sleep quality was not good, your metabolism will not function properly,” explains Michael Breus, PhD, author of Division Director Sleepdan Beauty Sleep Issues in Health Arrowhead, Glendale, Ariz..

According to Breus, the average man needs about 7.5 hours of sleep per night. “If you’ve got this, half an hour sleep will not help you lose 10 pounds. But if you usually sleep for five hours each day, then suddenly sleep for seven hours a night, then you will begin the process of weight loss, “he said.

The fact that lack of sleep affects our ability to lose weight, he added, related to the hormone at night. Two hormones that are key in this process is to ghrelin and leptin.

“Ghrelin is a hormone that serves to inform you when the time to eat. And if lack of sleep, you’ll have a lot of ghrelin. As leptin is a hormone that tells you to stop eating. And when you lack sleep, leptin in your body just a little, “he explained.

If the hormone ghrelin in the body more than leptin, it would be related to weight. “You’ll eat more, but that the metabolism will slow when you lack sleep,” said Breus.

So, what can you do when lack of sleep? Of course a lot. According to Breus, observe how many hours you sleep with your sleep quality. “Some people like a new woman who has a baby, probably only slept for four hours. there are some people who are sleeping during the 7.5 hours, but less well because of pain or have a sleep disorder. This has the same effect as a lack of sleep. Most of these problems would improve with increasing environmental hygiene, “he said.

To overcome the lack of sleep, as a first step to avoid the late afternoon caffeine, because it will make your stay in the stage of lighter sleep are associated with less sleep at night. Exercise also helps you to improve the quality of sleep. How long before we have to exercise to sleep? That depends, and each person is different.

Even more important is that you are doing sports, not the time for how long. However, to be safe, he recommends that you do not exercise right before bed. “But there are many people who do exercise before he slept, and did not affect the quality of their sleep,” says Breus.

Consider also what you eat before bed. “Pizza and a beer before bed is not a good idea,” says Breus. “So eat a big meal close to bedtime,” he added. He suggested that we should eat some healthy snacks and eating snacks like a bowl of cereal before bed. Eating a heavy meal close to bedtime will increase the risk of heartburn, which will make you awake all night.

What if you’ve slept enough, but when I woke up still feeling sleepy the next day? “Talk to an expert physician about sleep problems,” says Breus. After conducting an evaluation and tracking your sleep rhythm, where you’ll always be monitored during sleep, your doctor will help identify the fundamental problems of this disorder. With the doctor, you can develop a treatment plan so that the front will get quality sleep better.
