The key to a longer life truly lies with what we're eating every day.
However, is giving up everything that tastes good truly worth it? Like the Western diet for instance.
The "Western diet" per CNN, consists of red meat and a lot of processed foods. And this study suggests by switching to a more plant-based diet that focuses more on fruits, vegetables, nuts, and whole grains, you can increase your lifespan SIGNIFICANTLY!
If a woman made that change at age 20, she could increase her lifespan by just over 10 years, and for men, 13 years! If the change is adopted at the age of 60, women can increase their lifespan by eight years, and it's closer to nine years for men!
The study also found that even people in their 80s could extend their life by three-and-a-half years just by switching to a more plant-based diet!
