We all would like to live a full length of a life right? Everyone who I have ever asked if they rather live to be 40 or 80 have all said 80. But why is it that if this is the case we fail to study this subject with more care? Why do we leave our life to chance and we live undisciplined lives when it comes to our health?

Here is the first of 3 secrets to longevity: Become aware of your current eating habits. Just because something tastes great doesn't really make it great for you. If you want to know the line that finally changed my mind about food it was this, "We all dig our graves with our teeth"

This line was shared with me through a book. Why was I reading this book? Was it because I was studying wellness and how to live a healthier life? Heck no.. I was reading this book because the book was about how to achieve greater financial success. What does this tell you? Exactly, we care more about out bank account than we do about our health.

If you want to live a longer life, monitor what you eat. Sounds simplistic? Everything starts with awareness. Here is a list of foods that you should be in taking.

· Almonds
· Apples
· Blueberries
· Broccoli
· Red beans
· Salmon
· Spinach
· Sweet potatoes
· Vegetable juice
· Wheat germ and, Ganoderma Lucidum.

The second Secret To Longevity is: To incorporate your healthy choices into your daily habits. For example; If you know that you forget to take your vitamin pills everyday and you only remember when you begin to feel sick, you may consider purchasing your vitamins in a different delivery method. Use a method that is more like a habit for you, something that you never forget to do. With science advancing every year, you can rest assure that your vitamins come in every way imaginable, even in your coffee.

Secret to longevity number 3: Never over work. Easier said than done right? Well with the economy the way it is, this is a perfect opportunity to start a business and be your own boss. Never in the history of the world has the timing been so right for people who want to do their own thing.

With the internet and the home based business industries booming there in nothing in this planet that you can't accomplish when it comes to opening up a business for yourself. I recommend the Network Marketing industry because it is the only one that allows you to begin with a small capitol investment where you can retire rich.

These 3 secrets to longevity along with getting enough sleep can help you to reach the age of 80 still strong.
