"Unlocking the Fountain of Youth: 8 Measures to Slow Ageing by 6 Years"

Scientists have identified eight health measures that can slow down the body's ageing process by up to six years. These measures include maintaining a healthy weight, blood sugar, cholesterol, and blood pressure, as well as following healthy sleep and eating habits, engaging in regular physical activity, and not smoking. The findings, based on a study of over 6,500 adults, suggest that adhering to these measures promotes good heart health, which in turn may slow down biological ageing. People with the best cardiovascular health were found to be biologically six years younger than their actual age. The American Heart Association has named these measures as Life's Essential 8 to define heart health.
