Start Building your Future Knowledge.

In the pursuit of longevity and a better quality of life, we’re tapping into some beneficial habits to ensure our journey into “premium age” is a smooth and risk-free as possible.

Getting moving

You’ve probably heard this a thousand times before but there’s a whole industry of medical and wellness practitioners who won’t stop singing exercise it’s praises. Even if you can manage half an hour a day, of some form of physical activity, you’ll be able to help counteract normal muscle aging and help preserve lean muscle mass.

Screen regularly

Routine health screenings, especially as you get older, will help with the detection of illnesses and disease. The early you can catch them, the better your chances of treating severe health concerns.

Eat well

A balanced diet will go a long way in extending your lifespan. Nutritive-rich vegetables, leaner meats and whole grains can help prevent a range of metabolic disorders and diseases.

Stand-up

Did you know that sitting for most of your day could increase your risk of heart disease? For many of us, we’re stuck at a desk for much of our working week. Be sure to take regular breaks for a quick walk around your building, office, home to get your steps in.

Be social

According to research published online in Ageing and Society, living a life in solitude can negatively affect our mental wellbeing as you get older, with loneliness, stress, depression and anxiety. Reach out to your friends regularly and make plans to see each other.

Sleep

Getting the right amount of restful sleep is imperative to our mental and physical wellbeing. That’s right, it’s not only the amount but also the quality of sleep that matters. Adults aged 18 to 60 should aim for seven or more hours per night, those aged 61 to 64 should get between seven and nine hours a night, and anyone aged 65 or older should get seven to eight hours. Try and keep a consistent sleep schedule, limit your caffeine and alcohol intake before bed, and limit your use of electronic devices before you sleep.
