Live 14 years longer with healthy lifestyle (2 years longer if good vitamin D) – Dr. Greger

Turning the Clock Back 14 Years

|Greger

  • “In 1903 Thomas Edison predicted that [“[t]he doctor of the future [would] give no medicine, but [would instead] instruct [their] patient in the care of [he] human frame in diet and in the cause and prevention of disease[s].” A hundred and one years later, the American College of Lifestyle Medicine was born.”

  • ““Adhering to [just] 4 simple healthy lifestyle factors can have a strong impact on the prevention of chronic diseases.”

    • Not smoking,

    • not being obese,

    • half-hour of exercise a day, and

    • eating healthier—like more fruits, veggies, whole grains, less meat.

    • Four simple things cut our risk of developing a chronic disease by 78%. 95% of disease risk, out the window; 80% of heart-attack risk, gone. Half of stroke risk, a third of cancer risk; simply gone.”
