Does my lifestyle keep you young?
© Kranefeld / CorbisWe live longer and longer. This is shown by new figures from private insurers who, together with the Federal Statistical Office, are creating so-called mortality tables. According to the study, women who are now 35 years old have a life expectancy of 98 years, men just under 94 years old. Girls born today can expect to be 103 years old; Guys are predicted an age of just under 100.
Incidentally, the risk of death has only changed massively in our favor for the last four generations (for more information, see the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences). And the outlook is good: over the next 50 years, life expectancy in industrialized countries is expected to increase by another 7 years.
But if you want to enjoy life in old age, as a young person you have to mindfully deal with yourself, your life, your desires and your resources, because lack of sleep, stress, worries and soul depressions make us age prematurely. Does your lifestyle keep you young?
