Scientists Find 3 Secrets To Longevity
Scientists have proven that the secret to longevity is basically 3 factors and it breaks downs like this:
✅ 25% diet
✅ 25% exercise
✅ 50% happiness AKA Joy
Which makes this latest study on how exercise makes you happier is important!!
🔺Researchers at Yale and Oxford say exercise is more important to your mental health than how much money you make.
🔺Researchers collected data about the physical behavior and mental mood of more than 1.2 million Americans.
🔺In the study people could choose from 75 types of physical activity — from lawn-mowing, childcare, and housework to weight lifting, cycling, and running or bicycling.
🔺The people in the study were also asked about their income and physical activities.
🔺The researchers found that while those who exercised regularly tended to feel bad for 35 days a year, nonactive participants felt bad for 18 days MORE, on average.
🔺In addition, the researchers found that physically active people feel just as good as those who don't do sports but who earn about $25,000 more a year.
🔺So, you'd have to earn a lot more to get the same joy-boosting effect that sport has.
🔺🔺According to the study, three to five training sessions, each lasting between 30 to 60 minutes, are ideal per week.
🔺Sports that involve socializing can have more of a positive effect on your mental health than others.
🔺🔺The scientists also noticed that certain sports that involve socializing - such as team sports - can have more of a positive effect on your mental health than others.
🔺Despite the fact that neither cycling nor aerobics and fitness technically counts as team sports, these activities can also have a considerable positive effect on your mental health.
🔺🔺🔺This is one of the reasons I’m so excited my newest program The Become Ageless Tribe because it combines all 3 of these factors!!
