Neurosurgeon Brett Osborne leads the Senolytix anti-aging center, where they help develop healthy habits.
In an interview with Fox News, the doctor shared five daily health habits he advises his patients to help them achieve longevity. About it writes portal “Doctor Peter”.
It’s important to listen to your body. Symptoms of many deadly diseases can be noticed on their own in the early stages. Therefore, it is necessary to monitor your health and notice signs of illness in time, do not postpone visits to the doctor if there are reasons for concern.
You also need to take tests. Here are five of them that will help you keep track of your health.
lipid profile. This test gives an approximate idea of the ratio of “good” and “bad” cholesterol in the blood.
C-reactive protein (CRP). The doctor noted that patients with obesity and metabolic syndrome have increased levels of CRP. And this increases the risk of coronary heart disease, hypertension, type 2 diabetes.
Homocysteine. Elevated homocysteine is associated with a risk of heart attack, stroke, Alzheimer’s disease, and osteoporosis.
Glycated hemoglobin. This indicator will help to understand fluctuations in blood sugar.
Vitamin D3. Vitamin D3 deficiency has been linked to stroke, insulin resistance, Alzheimer’s dementia, coronary heart disease, and cancer, Osborne said.
In addition, you need to remember – you should train not only the body, but also the mind. By the way, sport will be good for the brain. Firstly, it allows you to form neural connections and reduce the risk of Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases.
Secondly, increased blood flow to the brain improves memory and learning ability.
Finally, it is important to keep an eye on the glycemic index (GI). It shows the rate of glucose entering the bloodstream and the increase in insulin levels after a person eats a particular product.
First of all, this parameter is important for people with diagnosed diabetes. However, it makes sense for a healthy person to remember the GI. This does not mean that certain foods should be completely excluded from your diet, it is better to just correctly dose their amount on the menu.
