1 . We may know some good health habits, but we don’t realize how much difference they can make. In the 1970s, scientists at the University of California-Los Angeles asked 7,000 people about their health habits. Then they followed these people to see how long they lived.
The scientists discovered that seven habits were closely linked with a longer life.
| ▲eating breakfast every day ▲avoiding eating anything like cakes between meals ▲keeping a good weight—not too heavy or too thin ▲exercising regularly ▲sleeping seven or eight hours every night—not more or less ▲not smoking ▲drinking two or fewer alcoholic (含酒精的) drinks every day |
But how do you change your habits? Make one small change every week. And be patient. It takes about 21 days to form a new habit.
