00:00La humanidad se ha obsesionado con el sueño de la eterna juventud, una profunda aspiración
00:06a ir más allá de nuestra biología, que impulsa a buscar una solución externa para lograr
00:11alargar la vida. Pero mientras la ciencia explora opciones futuristas, una respuesta
00:17mucho más accesible al envejecimiento se encuentra en la modificación de hábitos diarios.
00:30Do you want to live 15 years longer? Forget about any anti-aging lotions or magic potions
00:37and watch this video.
00:46As they say, nothing in life is certain but death and taxes. And let me tell you, nowadays
00:53not even death is certain anymore.
00:55Ambitious researchers in the Silicon Valley are trying to hold aging with cell rejuvenation
01:02cures, gene therapy or even transferring our consciousness into machines that could theoretically
01:09extend our human life indefinitely.
01:12That's absolutely crazy and it'll look creepy too.
01:16After all, we're all happily aging right now.
01:19But that doesn't mean there's nothing we can do to slow down the clock for us.
01:24Check this out.
01:26If we don't get hit by a car or die of cancer, we are most likely to die from the consequences
01:32of arteriosclerosis, the narrowing and calcification of our arteries, which leads to heart attacks,
01:38heart failure and strokes among other things.
01:41So if we want to slow down the aging process, what we need to do is keep our arteries smooth
01:47and elastic. Don't smoke!
01:50With each puff, we damage the inner protective lining of our arteries and leave them vulnerable
01:56to accelerated aging.
01:58So basically, smoking jump-starts the entire process of arteriosclerosis.
02:03Eat smart, enjoy plant-based, home-cooked meals and stay away from fast food, sugary soft drinks
02:09and processed ingredients.
02:11This way, we not only supply our body with all the antioxidants, anti-inflammatory compounds
02:17and fiber it needs, we also avoid spikes in our blood sugar levels that, again, damage our arteries.
02:25And next to not smoking and eating smart, here are my top three tips to pampering your arteries.
02:32Number one.
02:33Exercise and physical activity reduce all our risk factors and even turn back our clocks a
02:39little.
02:40Really!
02:41Sport prevents the shortening of our so-called telomeres, the end pieces of our chromosomes,
02:47which are crucial for the aging process.
02:51Number two.
02:52Manage your stress and relax.
02:54In our modern times, with smartphones constantly distracting us and making us available 24-7,
03:01ongoing stress has become one of the greatest threats to our health.
03:05Number three.
03:07Find something worth living for.
03:09Social isolation, loneliness and a lack of purpose in our life are poison to our health.
03:17Get involved with other people or join a charity project that you really care about.
03:22To put it in the words of the great German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche.
03:28He who has a why to live for can bear almost any how.
03:34And with that in mind, my friends, remember to always stay true to yourself, stay healthy,
03:40stay happy and don't forget your Dr. Hart.
03:46Take care.
03:48Look forward-osta to the editorial he wants.

04:08hear the future of her loss.
04:09So, be sure to come back and do that again.
