Surprisingly, the number one social factor contributing to long life isn’t culture, lifestyle or even genetics — it is education.

Education may be the secret to a long life

That’s according to a new study by James Smith at the RAND Corporation, a nonprofit institution helping to improve policy and decision making.

He’s not the only one to find a correlation between longevity and education. The National Institute on Aging has found the same thing in several studies.

Education, as Dr. Smith suggests, allows people to delay gratification and think ahead, instead of live in the moment. According to Dr. Smith, living in the moment is the worst thing for your health. And learning how to plan for the future can add years onto your life.

But that doesn’t mean that just because you have a doctorate, you’ll live a long and bountiful life. There are several other factors that play into longevity.

Here’s a quick list of proven ways to bump up your lifespan:

  • Eat a healthy, balanced diet according to your specific body (we suggest organic food)
  • Exercise daily
  • Stop smoking
  • Manage your stress
  • Get about 8 hours of sleep per night

Colon hydrotherapy and longevity

There’s no doubt that your gut plays a vital role in your lifespan. That’s why keeping your gut free from toxins and working at 100 percent is crucial. Colonics is one of the best ways to do that. Colonic irrigation uses sterile, warm water gently instilled into the colon to cleanse toxins and remove waste. And that helps keep away disease and other ailments, which can drastically cut your longevity.
