Tips for staying younger longer

Kill painkillers
Go easy on painkillers to keep your blood pressure down. Harvard Medical School researchers have found that men who take aspirin, paracetamol or ibuprofen daily, increase their risk of hypertension significantly. Ibuprofen made them 38% more likely to develop high blood pressure, paracetamol 34% and aspirin 26%.

Eat chocolate
Eating chocolate will help you keep your teeth strong. The cocoa compound theobromine is more effective at fighting cavities than fluoride, according to a new study at Tulane University in New Orleans.

Skip the vasectomie
Research at Northwestern University, Illinois found that 40% of men who had vasectomies later developed dementia, compared to just 1% of a control group.

Eat spinach and eggs
Eating spinach and eggs, which are high in carotenoids, lutein and zeaxanthin, decreases the risk of age-related macular degeneration by 35%, according to the National Eye Institute in the US.

Avoid alcohol
A study at Wellesley College, Massachusetts has discovered a 1.6% reduction of brain volume in people who have over 14 alcoholic drinks every week.
