Reading the life expectancy statistics is impressing, specially if you live in one of the countries that are not doing well in charts. Guatemala is among the other central american countries the lowest, 71,66 years old. It is hard if they show it with no warning, isn' t? It means that, even if you have a good life, if you eat properly and also, if you do exercise yourself at least 30 mins. per day, other circumstances that are far from your action are going to kill you. http://www.datosmacro.com/demografia/esperanza-vida
Which could they be? Here a short list:
- Polluted water. Usually water comming out from the sink is polluted with feces. Instead people use to drink botled water, however, it comes in plastic recipies (another cause of cancer)
- Heavy toxics flowing in the air (specially those comming out from cars)
- Omnipresence of processed and fast foods
-Extreme Violence. The average of 10 persons killed each day keeps the country among the most violent in the world.
How can I add years to my life?
It seems to be difficult but making some profound changes on your habits: what you eat, where you go, forgetting about drinking beer all weekends and eating the less you can at fast food restaurants could help. Besides, trying to slow down your life a bit and avoiding to feel stressed all the time could help to stop producing hormones that can lead you to a heart attack.
But not everything is lost. people that want to be longer in this life is acting all around the world. For sure they would come up with an answer that is going to help everyone.
