All people age - it is nature, a fact, a fact. Now, when you read it, you get older, inevitably approaching its finale. But old age - is not only decrepit body, which is constantly sick and falling apart, but a state of mind.
This state can not depend on the biological age. How often do you hear that you can grow old and 20 years old? Everything is connected, and if you are old soul, the body is bound to be fit.
Premature aging: causes and symptoms
In addition to age, which is registered in the passport, each person has a personal pace of aging - chronological age. Scientists have long noticed that some people age earlier than others - for longer stay young. Probably, you do not just see this and may even be noticed on its own.
In addition to the genetically determined rates, the rate of aging affects the amount of stress that cause an unhealthy reaction to the world. Early retirement has all the symptoms of "emotional burnout", such as hypochondria, anxiety and a tendency to hysteria.
So if there are people in your community who begins to scream and stomp their feet on any slight occasion, perhaps, is the "young old man." And it turns out they are not so little.
In 38% of Russians biological age more than a passport for 7-9 years, and, most often, these people are more weigh, get sick more often, and, in general, weaker than the same age, biological age which coincides with the date in passport.
Of course, the scientists decided to identify the causes of this "disease," and it turned out that it directly affects the standard of living.
"Young elderly", as a rule, earn little and live in communal apartments or cramped, old apartments do not have a decent education, poor nutrition and raising two or more children. Such people move a little, and hate their jobs.
I.e, Aging is directly related with satisfaction that a person gets from life.
Another cause of premature aging can be called that person ceases to learn. This can happen for various reasons, and academic institutions had nothing to do with it. It can be a lifetime to learn, to learn something new, and at the same time never to be a student.
So, early aging causes:
- dissatisfaction with life
- Decreased mobility
- Stopping development (training)
What can we do to not age prematurely?
Eat less, move more
To give specific examples of the extension of youth, you can pay attention to the long-lived - as a rule, they stay longer young, longer retain health, mobility and a clear mind. Some - to the death.
Its centenarians have in almost every country, but the number may vary. Probably many have heard that Japan is famous for its longevity. The average life expectancy there is 83.91 years. Also, excellent performance in the Nordic countries and in France.
One reason for the percentage of centenarians in these countries can be considered a diet - in Japan and Scandinavia eat a lot of seafood, while France made to eat small meals and eat slow. In Japan, a very low rate of obesity - a total of about 3%, while in the Nordic countries, about 70% of the population engaged in outdoor sports.
From various interviews of centenarians can be concluded that the majority of them eat quite modest. In addition, long-lived, usually a lot of work. So the famous phrase from the movie can be considered a secret about how long to keep young and live longer.
continue to learn
From the very first day a person learns and knows the world, it reveals something new.
An interesting fact: the largest percentage of people whose chronological age is very different from psychological, found among the thirty.
For thirty years a person can show that he has already learned all that is necessary to him for life, bought a specialty on which the rest will do the same thing, and stopped in development. For such a decision should always aging.
When a person stops learning, he enters the stage of aging. Zinov'ev
Learn a new job, new hobbies, to read new works, to find new areas and immersed in them - it retains the flavor of life and does not get bogged down in the monotony of everyday life.
Because they like
In 1860 Karl May, traveling to the Caucasus, where there was always a large percentage of centenarians, he said that the people live a long time, because they like.
A large number of friends, relatives and neighbors, mutual, cordial relations - all this helps to eliminate fear, loneliness, depression and depressive moods. It turns out that the most important thing - it is psychological comfort and enjoyment of life.
Warm family ties help the Italians live longer, despite the fact that Italy - one of the most smoking countries in Europe. The average life expectancy there - 77 years (in Russia - 69). High rates outside Europe - in Cuba (76 years), and, again, one of the reasons this is called natural optimism and joy of life of Cubans.
And in conclusion I would like to connect all the reasons and tips Lyudmila Belozerova opinion, professors who created the method for determining the biological age:
Material well-being means a lot for the extension of youth, but it plays an important role and attitude towards life. People are slowly getting older tend to move a lot and having fun, a lot of work, eat everything, but little by little, optimistic and helpful to others.
