Diet from age forty may extend lifespan

A nutrition expert revealed that adopting a healthy lifestyle, which includes six main factors such as proper nutrition, physical activity, adequate sleep, and stress management, can increase the average life expectancy by around 14 years when reaching the age of fifty, according to studies from Harvard and Britain. Research has also shown that improving one's diet, especially when started in the forties, may add up to 10 years to lifespan, depending on the chosen dietary pattern, such as the Mediterranean diet that focuses on fruits, vegetables, and legumes. A healthy and balanced diet helps prevent chronic diseases and positively impacts vascular health, blood sugar levels, and inflammation. It is particularly important for seniors to meet their protein and nutrient needs to enhance quality of life as they age.
