Adopting specific health habits during middle age can increase longevity, according to reporting from Folha de S.Paulo.
The shift toward a longer-living society is creating what Valor Econômico describes as a new longevity market. This sector requires integrated science and management to address the medical and social needs of individuals who may live significantly longer than previous generations.
In the book Homo Longevus, author Luiz Paulo Foggetti proposes a future where living to 120 years is a possibility. Foggetti argues that this potential lifespan requires a fundamental reflection on how society organizes health and aging.
Middle-Age Habits for Increased Longevity
Folha de S.Paulo identifies nine habits for individuals in middle age to adopt to extend their healthy lifespan.
VEJA Rio reports that these healthy habits are decisive factors in determining how well an individual ages.
The Economic Impact of Aging in Brazil
Campo Grande News reports that Brazil is aging without becoming wealthier, creating a demographic burden where the elderly population grows faster than the economic means to support them.
The Science of the Longevity Market
According to Valor Econômico, this market involves a scientific approach to aging that begins decades before senescence.
This approach aligns with the theories presented in Homo Longevus regarding the systemic changes needed to support a population that could reach 120 years of age.
