Brisk walking is often associated with better health, longevity, and better memory. Walking for 30 minutes a day, until you feel a little short of breath or sweat, is the ideal outdoor activity.
2. Intermittent fasting
Intermittent fasting is a proven way to live longer, helping to ward off Alzheimer's disease and type 2 diabetes, as well as helping to avoid weight gain.
3. Read books
Yale University in the United States did a study of 3,600 people in their 50s and found that reading increased life expectancy by nearly two years. Those who read more than 3.5 hours a week had the longest life expectancy, and if that's not possible, 30 minutes a day is good for the body.
4. Exercise in green spaces
Trees produce phytofungicides that help lower blood pressure, reduce stress and boost the immune system. Scientists have found that microorganisms in forest soil can slow down depression and benefit the body's microbiome. You'll also sleep better at night when you take a walk in a green place.
5. Keep learning
The brain loves novelty:Crafts, games, and even new recipes trigger the production of neurons, and the more complex and difficult the new learning, the greater the reward.
6. Napping
Multiple studies have shown that nappers have better concentration, stronger memory and better reasoning. But napping for more than 90 minutes can be harmful to your health.
7. Prevent pollution
More and more studies link airborne pollutants to lung cancer, heart disease, Alzheimer's disease, high blood pressure and diabetes, so we can buy a high-quality air purifier and grow greenery at home.
8. Strengthen bone density exercise
The most beneficial exercise for bone density is jumping - try jumping 10 to 20 times. If you find jumping too tiring, you can change to ballroom dancing.
