Longevity
Longevity science and advice: live longer and better — research, breakthroughs and daily habits.
The Longevity Protocol
Evidence-based habits to live longer and better — the EUROPES sequence.
Move every single day
At least 150 minutes of moderate exercise per week. Daily movement is the closest thing to a longevity pill.
Build and keep muscle
Strength training 2–3 times a week. After 40, muscle mass is one of the strongest predictors of how long and how well you live.
Train your VO₂ max
Cardiorespiratory fitness is the single strongest predictor of lifespan. Add intervals: 4 minutes hard, 4 minutes easy.
Sleep 7–9 hours, same schedule
Deep sleep clears the brain and regulates hormones. Going to bed at the same time matters as much as the hours.
Eat like the Mediterranean
Olive oil, fish, legumes, nuts, vegetables. The most consistently proven longevity diet in the world.
Protein at every meal
Aim for 1.2–1.6 g per kg of body weight daily to protect muscle as you age.
Never smoke anything
Smoking costs roughly 10 years of life. Quitting at any age starts recovering them.
Keep alcohol minimal
There is no longevity benefit in alcohol. The less, the better — period.
Know your blood pressure
Keep it near 120/80. Hypertension silently damages brain, heart and kidneys for decades.
Guard your metabolic health
Watch waist size, fasting glucose and HbA1c. Insulin resistance accelerates every disease of aging.
Invest in relationships
Loneliness is as lethal as smoking 15 cigarettes a day. Strong social ties add years — it is the Blue Zones secret.
Have a reason to wake up
Purpose — what the Japanese call ikigai — is linked to significantly lower mortality.
Master your stress
10 minutes of daily breathing or meditation lowers cortisol, blood pressure and inflammation.
Walk after meals
A 10–15 minute walk after eating flattens glucose spikes and aids digestion.
Heat exposure works
Finnish studies: sauna 4–7 times a week is associated with up to 40% lower cardiovascular mortality.
Avoid ultra-processed food
Each 10% increase in ultra-processed intake raises all-cause mortality. Cook real food.
Stop eating late
Finish dinner 2–3 hours before bed. A consistent eating window improves metabolic flexibility.
Keep learning forever
Languages, instruments, new skills — cognitive reserve delays dementia by years.
Get screened on time
Colonoscopy, blood panels, skin checks. Almost everything that kills is cheaper to catch early.
Live near green, walk daily
Access to nature and walkable streets is associated with longer life in every major cohort study.
