Recent data shows that people in the U.S. can expect to live an average life expectancy (寿命) of 78.7 years. That puts Americans well behind that of 80.3 years in developed countries like Canada, Germany and Japan. Luckily, a 2018 study from Harvard University found that keeping these five habits could add up to 10 years or more to a person’s life:
1. Maintain a healthy diet
This isn’t as easy as it sounds, especially when you’re dealing with your work, family and social commitments. may be tempting, for example, to grab a quick bite at a fast food chain on your lunch break or order takeout during late nights at the office. But a recent study published in the British journal found that poor diets lead to one in five deaths.1. A good diet, according to the researchers, contains minimally processed, whole foods and grains, vegetables, fruits, nuts and any natural source of protein (i.e. fish and beans).
2. Exercise daily
2. Even the world’s most successful business leaders, like Oprah Winfrey and Bill Gates, make physical activity a daily priority. Just small amounts of daily exercise can help maintain a healthy body weight, maintain healthy bones, muscles and joints, promote psychological well-being and reduce the risk of certain diseases, including some cancers.
3. Keep a healthy weight
A “healthy” weight varies from person to person, but usually a body mass index (BMl) between 18.5 and 24.9 is considered healthy. A study published in the International Journal of Obesity found that those who monitored their weight less frequently were more likely to gain weight. 3.
4. Limit your alcohol intake

To get through long days, some may even rely on alcohol as a stimulant (兴 奋剂) in social settings. 4. To begin with, it can add to your waistline and increase the risk of several cancers. While it can be difficult to moderate your alcohol intake, avoiding alcohol altogether benefits you a lot.
5. Don’t smoke
As the health risks of smoking have become increasingly apparent, there’s been more effort in warning people about the dangerous side effects.5. However, your body will thank you in the long run if you do so.
A. But there are many downsides.
B. That doesn’t mean it’ll be easy to kick the habit.
C. Start viewing the scale as tool to stay within the healthy range.
