Living longer from Nat Geo

Live healthy and long

How to live longer by Jake Porway at Nat Geo

Host Jake Porway in a cubicle.  There is a killer in this office that is that is taking years off your life.  Sitting for more than 6 hours a day increases the risk of a premature death by up to 40% in women and 20% in men.  Even if you keep active or exercise during the rest of your day.


Last night I watched a feature from Nat Geo, "Numbers game"  The show is hosted by Jake Porway, a data specialist.

What are the index of long life (4 or more years longer lifespan)

1. Right handed
2.  Longer index finger
3.  Those who drink coffee
4.  Those who floss regularly
5.  Those who eat raw food (vegetable fruits, and meat) -  primal diet

What can you do to have longer life?

1.  Take occasional alcohol
2.   Buy a bike;  ride to work
3.   Avoid the deadliest equipment in the office - a chair
4.  Have primal diet
5.  More frequent sex  (2x per week would be optimal)
