If you want to live well into your 60s, 70s, or beyond, you need to start taking your physical condition seriously.

That means having a BMI that lies within the recommended range — or, not being overweight or obese.

Obesity can absolutely ravage your body in a number of ways, and many of the most common causes of death (including both cancer and heart disease) are closely linked to excess poundage.
肥胖能够以多种方式损坏你的身体,很多最常见的死亡原因(包括癌症和心脏病)都与过高的磅重息息相关。

As we've covered previously, our fingernails can tell us a whole lot about the state of our health.

我们的握力是心脏健康的一个标志,它能够告诉医生是否存在对我们的身体产生负面影响的严重潜在问题。
5.接受的教育
How much schooling you have can also give us an idea of how long you're likely to live.
你接受的教育程度也能告诉我们你可能会活多久。
Research basically shows that the longer you went to school, or the higher the degree you have, the longer you're bound to live.
研究基本上表明,上学时间越长,或者学位越高,就活得越久。
That may mean that you make more money, and live a less stressful life. It may also mean you can afford more nutritious foods.

Bad breath may indicate someone has a cancer or other infections that can, in fact, kill you.
