9 Simple Tips to Lengthen Your Lifespan (IMPORTANT) If you want to lengthen your lifespan then you need to see these 9 simple tips that you can start instituting starting today. The goal of this video is to reveal life hacks and tips for improving longevity to get you not only living longer, but a higher quality life with less illness along the way to old age. We have to start by looking at our sleep quality. When it comes to learning how to live longer, ironically we must start with the activity we spend the most time in our life doing - sleeping. Sleep is the most important part of the day for the long term maintainence of our health. It is during sleep that our bodies recover, heal and fortify our health for the next day. Whenever someone wants to know how to live longer, I tell them to focus on increasing the quality of their sleep. Here you want to make sure that you set the temperature of the room to be cooler than you may even prefer it. Science has shown that the cooler room helps to lower our body temperature by 1-3 degrees, which makes restful sleep much easier to obtain. Should you start to get too cold you can always add a blanket or two to accommodate. Next, you want to be sure that you are going to bed and waking up at the same time every day. Even when you are not able to get your preferred 7 hours of sleep a night, being able to consistently fall asleep and wake up at the same times has been shown to be ideal for setting your circadian rhythym and leading to higher quality sleep for however long you are in bed. Next you want to be sure that you re doing regular bloodwork. It doesn t matter how young you are right now, you re never too young to start monitoring your blood to at least obtain baseline measurements that you will likely need to reference as you get older. This is one of those healthy habits that you can start now that will serve you in being able to live longer and healthier for years to come. On that note, being sure to keep your annual physical appointment with your doctor is critical as well. Too many people skip this because they don t feel as if anything is wrong with them. The problem is, by the time your body lets you know that there is something wrong, it is too late to act on it. Next, you need to figure out a way to release stress rather than harbor it inside. There has been quite a bit of research into the science of stress and how easily it can physically impair you if you hold onto it rather than get it off your chest. In fact, some believe that the key to the answer of how to live longer is held right here in stress management. Learning how to lengthen lifespan and increase longevity is tied to ones ability to de-stress. One of the most effective ways to do this is through engaging in weightlifting. The ability to physically exert force into the weights is a stimulus that cannot be replicated by simply communicating your stress to others or even screaming or yelling to get rid of it. Too often people think that exercise alone is key to achieving stress relief. This is not true. The same effect has not been shown by simply running, walking or jogging. If you want to increase your lifespan and improve the quality of life as you age, you need to prioritize getting stronger. Some portion of your week, every week, needs to be dedicated to increasing strength as well. When it comes to what to eat to live longer, you need to focus on both fiber and protein. We often don t get enough of either in our diets, and that needs to change. I recommend getting about a gram to 1. 2 grams of protein per pound of bodyweight and about 30-40 grams of fiber (with about one third of that coming from soluble fiber) every day. Omega-3 fatty acids are also an essential part of a supplement plan that is aimed at helping you to lengthen your lifespan and live longer. In fact, there is new research out of the labs of Dr. Chris McGlory that suggests that omega-3 s have the ability to not only prevent muscle loss as we age but also increase the rate that you can add muscle. There are many other things that you can do to lengthen your lifespan but if you want to know how to live longer then you should start with these 9 simple tips. It wouldn t be hard to institute even just a couple of these as early as today to start reaping the benefits and improving your longevity - not to mention your quality of life.

This entire video hit so close to home in every single way. It's almost like my Drs contacted you to make a video or something. I've recently been seeing 6 different Drs that all lead to this video. And this video was very helpful in not only confirming what the others were stating but also adding in better information about both understanding and working through. And I didn't ever have to make a co-pay, although after some of the other stress in my life becomes better, I sure will contribute more. I'm 46 and recently went through some health scares. I'm down 50 lbs and perhaps another 20 to go (back in the gym so we'll see what is really my desired tgt weight vs just how do I feel, look, health, etc. I have to completely reiterate what was said about blood work. I'd also include that if you are doing diet (and even diet plus workout, that blood pressure and glucose monitoring is also beneficial. There are so many averages that do not necessarily apply to everyone, but changes or trends in these very much matter. I was dieting and had a scare that now led to anxiety and what I now know led to a panic attack. And now I'm dealing with not only that trigger, but other stress items which were never a problem before but triggering a feeling of another panic like attack. I wish I was monitoring my levels (blood work, blood pressure, and glucose levels) more closely through time to have not gone through this. So much yet to go, but I am looking forward and anxious (in a good way now) to becoming a better me. Thank you for the videos! They absolutely help and I'm trying to catch up. May I ask what types of fibers you recommend as mentioned in this video (or if there is already a related video that I may not have gotten caught back up on? You two have really helped me out here and I just wanted to say thank you Sirs!

Thank you. this is a very valuable video. But sometimes Shit happens. I am 56 years old, male, in Australia. For the past 10 years I've been a health nut, ate very healthy, was doing 3-4 sessions of high-intensity calisthenics a week. Slept well, walked a lot, was shreded and ripped, mostly low level sof stress.
18 months ago I had ischemic stroke which they tell me was preceeded by a disection of the carotid artery. I became a hemipligic, Lost control over my left leg and left hand. Now I am learning to walk again, still can't use my left hand.
What I am trying to say is that even with best lifestyle, we are still dust in the wind, a little boat in a stormy ocean.
Thank you Jeff

I'm glad you mentioned the Omega 3's. I had taken them for years. My previous doctor had me stop taking them. Said they were a waste of money. Six months later I had elevated blood pressure. High enough for him to prescribe medication. I read a nutrition book highlighting the advantages of omega 3's. So I went back on them. Within 3 months or so my blood pressure had come down to normal levels, and I went off the blood pressure medication (still not on any meds 3 years later. I know that's anecdotal, but I didn't change anything else in my diet or lifestyle. I subsequently changed doctors.

It s 0525 for me where I m at but I love this video and I always watch your videos when they come out. This one is awesome and talking about sleep I use the red light feature on my iPhone everyday so a huge thank you for that tip. Most importantly I m a disabled vet and your training techniques are the staple of all of my training everyday. Thank you Jeff for all of the work you put in to helping others. I AM very thankful for all that you do. I love your programs.

At the fire station the a/c its at 60 in the bunk room, my room happens to have the air flow at that goes down the wall onto your head, so I end up with a blanket over me and my head just to stay warm, At home the house it at 70, and I sleep with a ceiling fan on, if my feet get cold then I cover them or put my socks on, but the wife says that my feet need cooled and shouldn't be constantly warm. so there's give and take.

I bring it up to my doctor to do blood tests because weightlifters can have very high CK markers, which have sent me to the hospital for kidney issues.
Since then they've been normal. Also if you take Add meds people don't tell you it can destroy your kidneys.
Always sign up for the chart where you can view your stuff, it'll show trends in your health too you can ask about

On a visit to my uncle's in Trinidad, I had ro spend the 1st night without a fan. It was damn near impossible for this Chicago dude to sleep in their heat. I tossed n turned all night. During the process I realized the front of my body radiated more heat than the back, so I had to sleep on my back, otherwise I began sweating in bed.

Jeff clearly cares what happens to people, I really appreciate that. When someone just spews opinions, orders people around and acts like the they are the end all be all they are hard to listen to. Jeff's positive and humble attitude makes all his lessons and advice welcome. Thanks Jeff! You've helped me out a lot over the years.

Been struggling with sleep since I was in my twenties and I've done all the things you mentioned. At best I get only 4-hours uninterrupted. I do however get a short mid-morning nap. Wish I knew the answer.
These conversation type videos are great, really enjoyable - do more.
Thanks.

Ive been exhausted for years and my doctor finally had me test my ferritin levels. My hemoglobin was normal but ferritin was really low. Now I'm taking ferrous sulphate vitamins to increase my iron levels. Hoping it works. Not sure how much longer i can handle constant exhaustion.

I've been working in cold environment (with the right gear, for the last 15 years, standing for 8 hours shift and always thought that was good for me. I actually can feel the difference (and the pain on my back, when I do not work and spend my day off being lazy on the couch.

Jeff, you said to mobilize your thoracic, but full body mobilization is really what it should be. As a middle aged guy, I have started getting all these aches, pains, and hitches. When I started doing Yoga, those cleared right up and I felt 10 years younger.

Great video Jeff and Jesse, I used to have very bad tight traps and had sciatic nerve damage from sitting so much. 2 years later much less neck tension, still get some but much less and my sciatica is gone and my back pain is at a minimum for the most part.

i cant sleep many hours unfortunately, been like this all my life( i seem to be very active mentally and im never really mentally tired, but now with kids its even more challenging to sleep longer. i do blood work regularly. fiber is tricky due to IBS.
reply

I wake up at 4am and have breakfast before exercising at 4: 30. Going to bed at 7: 30pm. I feel great. I almost never sit the rest of the day, seeing as I clean my own home and garden + help my kids with homework. I also do the cooking

Hmm problem this month in Florida we re getting crazy heat waves. People s A/C s are already cranking continuously and 500-800 month power bills! So I m going to try to get by on 76 degrees at night and Lord help me get sleep! :)
reply

Jeff thank you for all these excellent tips! I really love all your exercise videos as well. You should be proud of all the lives you have impacted and the collective number of good years you've added to people's lives!
