The Longevity Project

To live a long life, we've been told, eat well, exercise and manage stress. Now an eight-decade study indicates that's only part of the equation. Health scientists Howard Friedman and Leslie Martin explain how factors such as social connections, personality and marriage affect long-term health in The Longevity Project

 

 

Exercise is important, but it doesn't have to mean logging long hours at the gym. Longevity Project researchers found that intense fitness regimens could backfire — long-term, you're better off finding a physical activity that you love.
