What are the Secrets to Live 100 Years?

Some people don’t want to live 100 years. Why?

To live 100 years and even more is out of the question to many. But turn the question around and ask yourself, would you like to die within soon? If no exceptional circumstances have turned down your joy of life, the answer to such a straightforward will probably be a big resounding…

NO!

As an upper-age senior, I have to admit that impending death is a topic becoming a more frequent visit to your thoughts than when you were 30.

“Death is not the opposite of life, but a part of it!”

Haruki Murakami

In a way, we position death as an event surrounded by all the negative vibes you can imagine. I never thought I would be able to publish such a controversial topic on my blog, “Life Race,” as the purpose of my blog is to “bombard” my audience with positive input.

Then suddenly, I came across an excellent article, “Centenarian Longevity Secrets: 4 Daily Habits That Could Help You Reach 100,” by Zhaoli Dai-Keller and Perminder Sachdev.

Their inspiring article gave me a kickstart to continue on the topic. It’s no longer a question about when you will die but how to live 100 years and even more.

What Do You Need to Live 100 Years?

During the last 20 years, the number of centenarians worldwide has increased by 280%!

Research shows (as always) that not smoking, avoiding alcohol, staying physically active, and maintaining social connections influence longevity. However, even if Zhaoli Dai-Keller and Perminder Sachdev give various explanations for this revolutionary change, they focus on four key factors above all.

Diverse Diet

What stands out in Dai-Keller’s and Sachdev’s research is the empowering idea that they do not advocate any unique or particular diet method. Instead, they emphasize the importance of a balanced and diverse diet, allowing you to choose what works best for you. While there’s no commitment to any specific diet method, a Mediterranean-like diet stands out as a beneficial eating habit for living 100 years.

Add to this reduced salt consumption and an abundance of whole grains, beans, vegetables, and fruits, and you’re on the right track.

Less Medications

No one will be free from illness and disease of different types; as we age, the risk increases. I use to compare humans with automobiles. Everything is fine when the car is new, but as the vehicle gets older, different service interventions used to be more frequent. The human body follows the same pattern.

“What goes around comes around.”

The most frequent health problems when getting older are hypertension or blood pressure and dementia. To a large extent, these problems are directly related to your life habits for many years.

Returning to my comparison with the car, the better you care for it, the longer it will last.

I don’t like medicine, and now I will take the risk of getting the entire pharmaceutical industry to hate me. Medicine is necessary, so we understand that point correctly. As far as I know, and I’m not a doctor, far away, all chemically produced medicine always has a negative effect, even though it can help to cure an illness.

The less medicine you take, the better it will help you live longer. This is, of course, something that has to be coordinated in detail with your doctor. It’s not a question of stopping the intake of medicines but optimizing consumption.

Good Sleep

Humans are ‘designed’ for a three-block activity pattern: eight hours of work, another eight hours for other activities, like leisure and eating, and finally, eight hours of sleep. Although this pattern is not a strict rule, it is a good guideline for maintaining a balanced and healthy lifestyle.

Of course, this “design” is not written in stone, but on average, those three blocks should divide your daily 24 hours. Good quality sleep helps maintain your body and health in good shape in many ways.

Good sleep depends on many factors; each person must determine the best “sleeping configuration.”

Living Environment

Where is the best place to live to optimize one’s quality of life? Well, that’s something that can be discussed endlessly. According to research by Zhaoli Dai-Keller and Perminder Sachdev, 75% of centenarians and near-centenarians live in rural areas. This finding empowers you to consider and take control of your living environment, understanding the potential connection between nature, health, and well-being.

Their conclusion to the relationship between rural living and longevity is the connection between nature, health, and well-being. With its abundant fresh air, greenery, and peaceful surroundings, rural living combats stress and isolates people from toxic exposure, such as pollution and contaminated water, promoting better health and longevity.

The Missing Part to Live 100 Years or More

What does it mean to “age well”? This term often refers to people who maintain their health and vitality as they age.

But aging well goes beyond physical fitness. It also includes remaining active and engaged mentally, spiritually, and socially. Research has shown that staying connected and involved in later life can help improve mental and physical health, prolong life expectancy, and promote overall wellness.

Many retirees find out that their monthly pension payout is far from what they expected, or at least it doesn’t give them space to live that golden age lifestyle, which was on the agenda some years ago.

Add to the equation the emptiness of not having something useful to do after retirement, and we are probably touching the pain point where most retirees find themselves.

More by incident, I found an excellent way to solve precisely this retirement problem ten years ago. It’s a solution that has transformed my life and could potentially do the same for you. Watch the video, and I will tell you the complete story, which perhaps is the solution you are waiting for.

Live 100 Years or More and Do It Well!

Various investigations show that social well-being, financial security, health, and independence contribute to positive aging.

All revues of different types point in the same direction:

Seniors, or as I prefer to call us, grown-up adults, are far from being an obsolete humanity group. Never before in history have so many 50,60, and even 70+ people started online businesses, taking advantage of their life experience and knowledge.

It wasn’t easy to follow this path a decade or two ago. Today, with a digital world inviting anyone, regardless of age, gender, race, or anything else, to join this movement, the opportunity is just in front of your eyes.
