to lead a long life one must be healthy. so exercising and eating right are the key factors to living a long life. But to be honest, i don't really wanna live a long life. I have seen many old people suffer and their lovely family just letting them be or putting them up in some old age homes. Seriously just thinking of that makes me wanna go away early.

yeah that is so true. I also feel that people are dying early these days!! I wouldn't wanna live more than 60 years myself actually but don't wanna go earlier than that.

Hi I agree too, I also dont want to get very old, what I am just concern is dying very early like 40 or 50 years old. I think many are living shorter lives nowadays

Hello there. I want to share you this thing. I will answer you Biblically. You can have a long life just by honoring your father and your mother. In Exodus 20:12, it says "Honor thy father, and thy mother: THAT THY DAYS BE LONG UPON THE LAND which the Lord thy God giveth thee." I think I don't need further explanations because the verse says so. thanks^____^ http://www.mcgi.org/en/

Hi Yeah I also believe that, spiritual things and our attitude can really prolong one's life cause even if you eat healthy but do not do what is right, that is not worth it....

I feel that to live a long life or a short one depends in part of eating a balanced diet and taking care of health problems as they come. But it is also a matter of luck. So, as I donĀ“t know whether I wll live one mor year or 10 or 20, I want my present to be as full of quality as I can. That might even help to live longer. Who knows!

Well there is one way to live long, always take rest that is sleep every time you are free as less stress you do on your body the longer you will live, thats what i heard from someone, and drink plenty of water that helps to remove toxins in body that cause stress on you blood pumping, eating vitamins are not but not too much. the main this is that you sleep well at right time and drink loads of water.

Hi I very much agree with that, people sometimes looks at sleep as an ordinary and simple routine but actually sleep should not be underestimated. We need to recharge and everytime we sleep its like we refresh our system.. Others abused their body by getting little sleep

always take sleep as a job that should be done at right time, sleeping as you know can get refreshed and mental stability. As by sleeping ones cell gets time for a break and replacement good to consider that this is one of the most important activity.

I believe that respecting their parents brings longer life, I remember something about it in the bible, though I forgot the exact verse and I have also seen it happen to other people. I have seen young people who are so disrespectful to their parents die at a very young age, or have a short life span.. Another is to take care of your health, eat vegetables and dont eat something too much, because too much of something is bad.

In Turkey, a lot of people reach the age of 100 and more. Whenever they are asked, they say eating yogurt, having olives and olive oil for breakfast, drinking milk, staying away from butter and fat, and having a spoon of good honey is their secret. I believe in this. I learned to make yogurt and we have a honey farm there where we get our honey from. Also fresh air is a good factor to keep ourselves healthy and live longer.

I think I like the suggestion. The food really has a factor in making us healthy. I will try that because I dont usually take the yogurt and honey on my diet.
