Lifestyle and Aging

Jul 22

Did you know that by the time you turn 50, your lifestyle dictates 80% of how you age and only 20% is genes?


So even if mum didn’t go grey and is fit and healthy and dad never even got out of breath walking up the stairs before he died, you are not necessarily going to age the same way. Your risk factors for diabetes and heart disease for example, are more likely to be lifestyle related and with these conditions on the rise, there’s no time like the present to make some changes.

The four factors that cause 75 percent of chronic diseases are all within our control - tobacco, food choices/portions, inactivity, and stress.
You have the power to prevent and potentially reverse serious health complications as you get older.

It may feel overwhelming but you and your employees can change some habits and take control of your health. Not only will you benefit as individuals, but you will find employee engagement and productivity increases at the same time!
