If you can make a few changes in your lifestyle that can help you live longer.

Drinking too much alcohol, smoking not exercising, and not eating enough fruits and veggies—can hustle you into an early grave, and, in effect, age you by as many as 12 years older than your age.

Fortunately, you can do something to correct these and other unhealthy behaviors. Adopt the following ten habits to keep your body looking and feeling young. 10 Ways to Live Longer:

1- Eat fruits and vegetables
Getting fewer than three servings of fruits and vegetables a day can eat away at your health. Nutritional powerhouses filled with fiber and vitamins, fruits and veggies can lower your risk of heart disease by 76% and may even play a role in decreasing your risk of breast cancer.

As an added bonus, the inflammation-fighting and circulation-boosting powers of the antioxidants in fruits and veggies can banish wrinkles.

2- Regular Sex
Having satisfying sex two to three times per week can add as many as three years to your life.
Regular sex may also lower your blood pressure, improve your sleep, boost your immunity, and protect your heart.

3- Don’t overeat
If you want to live to 100, leaving a little bit of food on your plate may be a good idea. 

Eating less helps you age slower, limiting calories lowered production of T3, a thyroid hormone that slows metabolism—and speeds up the aging process.

4- Too Much time on TV
Too much time in front of the boob tube can take a serious toll on your health. People who watched four or more hours a day were 46% more likely to die from any cause than people who watched less than two hours a day.

Even cutting back a little can help; each additional hour you watch increases your overall risk of dying by 11% and dying from heart disease by 18%.

5- Stay out of the sun
Avoiding too much sun can head off skin cancer, and it can also keep you looking young by preventing wrinkles, fine lines, and saggy skin.

It’s never too early or too late to add sunscreen to your daily skin-care regimen (look for an SPF of 30 or higher). And don’t focus only on your face. Sun damage spots and splotches on your chest and neck will also make you appear older.

6- Loneliness

You’re at greater risk of heart disease without a strong network of friends and family. Loneliness can cause inflammation, and in otherwise healthy people it can be just as dangerous as having high cholesterol or even smoking.

Loneliness seems to pose the greatest risk for elderly people, who are also prone to depression.

7- Drinking Alcohol
Women who have two or more drinks a day and men who have three or more may run into detrimental effects ranging from weight gain to relationship problems.

8- Daily Exercise
Daily exercise may be the closest thing we have to a fountain of youth. A regular high-intensity exercise (such as running) can add up to four years to your life, which isn’t surprising given the positive effects working out has on your heart, mind, and metabolism.

Even moderate exercise a quick, 30-minute walk each day, for example can lower your risk of heart problems.

9- Don’t smoke
Quitting smoking is perhaps the single most important thing you can do for your health—and your life span. Women who quit smoking by age 35 add roughly six to eight years to their lives.

It’s never too late to kick the habit. Quitting can slow disease and increase survival odds even in smokers who have already caused significant damage to their lungs, like those with early lung cancer or COPD.

10- Not having 6 hours sleep per day.

Not having at least 6 hours sleep per day is dangerous to your health.
