Extend your life ‘up to 100 years’! 4 strength exercises according to a longe expert

#Extend #life #years #strength #exercises #longe #expert

Lifestyle could influence longevity, since people who have a balanced diet and do physical activity tend to live longer. With this in mind, Canadian-American doctor Peter Attia designed a routine to maximize health and reach age 100 in excellent condition.

The longevity expert named it the ‘Centennial Decathlon’ and it revolves around the question: “If I want to live to be 100 years old, what do I have to be able to do physically to be satisfied with my life?”

In this way, the method consists of thinking about what are the things that you do not want to give up due to age. They can be trivial actions, such as being able to carry your great-grandchild when you are 80 years old, having the strength to carry grocery bags, opening containers with ease, and climbing stairs without getting tired, among

More and more people are entitled to reimbursement for contact lenses and glasses

From May, more people will be entitled to health insurance compensation for the purchase of contact lenses and glasses. The RIZIV lowers the threshold for reimbursement of the resistance of the lens or glass for spectacles.

The National Institute for Health and Disability Insurance will reimburse you for the purchase of lenses or glasses only under certain conditions. Until now only prescriptions of -7 or +7 for glasses and -7.75 and +7.75 for contact lenses were reimbursed. These thresholds are lowered to 6 diopters, the deviation that reflects “how poorly someone sees.” Concretely: -6 and +6 lenses and glasses are now entitled to reimbursement.

According to RIZIV, approximately 105,000 additional people who are very nearsighted (negative diopters) or farsighted (positive diopters) are entitled to compensation for spectacle lenses. For contact lenses this affects approximately 154,000 additional people.

People can get a refund for glasses and contact lenses at the same time. This is the reimbursement of compulsory health insurance. This can still be supplemented by health insurance.

The Unhealthy Side of Fatty Foods: What to Avoid for Better Health

Dietary fat as we know it has evolved over the past few decades. In the 1990s, all fats were thought to be nutritionally bad, so low-fat diets and fat-free snacking increased explosively. But it turns out that some fats, such as those found in nuts, seeds, avocados and olive oil, have many healthful properties.

Not all fats are bad, but some fatty foods are worse for your health than others. Some foods contain excessive amounts of unhealthy saturated and trans fats, which, if consumed in excess, can lead to serious health problems such as cardiovascular disease, some cancers, and other health conditions. Let’s see which fatty foods we should exclude from our tables for a healthy life.

1) sausage

Sausage is one of the unhealthy fatty foods. It may be high in protein, but it is high in fat, usually made from pork along with a number of spices, herbs and seasonings. According to the United States Department of Agriculture, pork sausage contains more fat than protein, and fat accounts for the majority of the food’s calories. Not to mention that a third of the fat in pork sausages is a saturated source. This makes pork sausages an unhealthy source of fat, in addition to their high sodium content and worrying preservatives like sodium nitrate, which are sometimes used. If you like the taste of sausage, choose chicken sausage, which has a much lower fat content.

2) Shortening

Fat is a type of fat that is solid at room temperature. It is often used in baking because it complements the crumbly texture of pastry, but its popularity has waned over the years as it is known to be an unhealthy fat. Shortening is done by adding hydrogen

Understanding Penopause: Hormonal Changes in Men and the Importance of Awareness

Menopause is beginning to be recognized as an important aspect of men’s health. This stage of life, characterized by hormonal changes, is affecting an increasing number of men who are now more open about the personal and health challenges they face.

What exactly is penopause?
Menopause is a natural aging process in men, characterized by gradual changes in hormone levels and physical functions that extend over the years. During this phase, the body makes slow adjustments, including a gradual decrease in testosterone levels. Unlike the hormonal changes women experience during menopause, penopause develops over a longer period of time.

The hormone associated with menopause is testosterone. As a person ages, testosterone production gradually decreases. This process can lead to a number of physical and mental changes. Various symptoms may arise that a person may experience such as: decreased energy, decreased muscle mass, increased weight and decreased bone strength. In addition, testosterone can influence a reduced libido.

In addition to the physical aspects, men can go through emotional and mental changes during menopause. Mood swings, reduced self-confidence and increased irritability may occur. It is important to note that men’s experiences of menopause can vary; not all men will have the same symptoms to the same extent.

Menopause is becoming an increasingly popular topic among men
