Researches found key factors like exercise, smoking, sleeping, and social relationships were all important factors in length of life
A new study has found changing eight habits could see the population live up to 20 years longer - if they follow the healthier options in life. Researchers identified that not exercising enough, smoking often, and using opioids had the biggest impact on a person's length of life, and these habits were associated with around a 30-45 per cent bigger chance of dying.
Eating more than half a tablespoon of the oil per day can be linked to having a 28 per cent less chance of dying from the condition, compared to those who never consume the oil, the researchers confirmed. These findings were all presented at Nutrition 2023 - the annual meeting of the American Society for Nutrition - which may also include more up-to-date findings in this work.
Xuan-Mai Nguyen, health science specialist at the Department of Veterans Affairs and rising fourth-year medical student at Carle Illinois College of Medicine, USA, said: "We were really surprised by just how much could be gained with the adoption of one, two, three, or all eight lifestyle factors. In the separate olive oil study, the scientists analysed dietary questionnaires and death records that were collected from over 90,000 people in the States over 30 years. During this time, 4,749 people died from dementia. Their research also found that replacing just one teaspoon of mayonnaise and margarine with the same amount of olive oil per day was intertwined with around an eight to 14 per cent lower risk of dying from dementia.
The study suggested that those who use olive oil regularly over animal or processed fats tended to be healthier in their diet overall. However, Dr Tessier added that the relationship between the risk of dying from dementia and using olive oil in this study was independent of an overall high-quality diet.
