Summer Banks explores science-backed lifestyle changes that significantly impact how long, and how well, we live. From small daily habits like adding nuts to your meals or walking just 15 minutes a day, to major shifts like quitting smoking and managing stress, these evidence-based practices show how much control we have over our own longevity regardless of our genes.
Quotes to ponder:
“Yoga can dramatically increase your flexibility and strengthen your core like never before all with minimal joint impact.”
“Those who eat an abundance of plant-based foods are more likely to live longer and avoid many common health issues.”
“Stress is often referred to as the silent killer and causes many harmful, often overlooked effects, which can introduce pain and strain into your daily activities.”
