Of course, we are all getting older. But, do you look and feel younger than your age? Or, do people guess you to be older since you are not taking proper care of yourself?
Have you ever thought that some people are “lucky” because they have the good genes that you didn’t get?
Science and medicine tell us now that only approximately 20% of our health is inherited.
So what does that mean for you?
It means that lifestyle is responsible for about 80% of how you will age, how long you will live, and the quality of your years.
This new information should be exciting to you as it means that now, you have choices!
It also means that if you have a history of disease in your family, you can start today by taking precautions with your diet (as in starting each morning with a Rootz Superfood Protein Shake).
You can also begin to exercise at home with this program here for women over 40, while thinking positively about the future, and acting on it.
Another key is to get regular checkups to be sure that you stay healthy, and know your family history of health, and disease.
- If you have a family history of diabetes, then cut back on or eliminate sugar, get carbohydrates from plants as in vegetables, and get your blood sugar levels checked.
- Have a family history of obesity, heart disease, or bone loss? Then be sure to eat so that you stay energized and lean, stay active to build lean muscle tissue that supports bone health, and get bone density checks at the appropriate age.
Whether your family history has had family members that passed young or were sick from debilitating diseases, now is the time for you to create a foundation of stellar health.
Mental health is key, as stress is still “the silent killer” and is considered one of the biggest factors in how you’ll be able to ward off disease.
Start out by getting a checkup to know your numbers and talk about them with your doctor.
Assess your mental health, your physical ability to move, and how you are eating and sleeping.
Then make a plan that keeps you on track to eating healthy, staying active, getting enough sleep, and looking at the future with optimism.
If you want to look and feel younger than your age, it’s up to you take the steps to take charge!
