Want a quick longevity test?
Measure your waist.
A waist-to-height ratio of 0.5 or higher puts you at more risk for insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and metabolic syndrome as well as a myriad of chronic diseases.
The fix:
-Eat in a calorie deficit for a short, targeted period of time then get out (6-8 weeks)
-Lift weights (2-3 days/week)
-Sleep well (7-9 hours/night)
-Walk daily (8-10k/day)
Shrink your waistline, extend your lifespan, and keep your brain sharp.
