The Truth About Longevity: Why Prevention Matters More Than You Think #shorts #longevity

Your health insurance is not going to pay to keep you healthy for the most part. There's only so much your insurance is going to do, your company's going to do or the government's going to do for you. Exercise. Clearly, if you are faster and stronger for your weight, you will be a healthier, longer living person. It's very hard to die when you're very fit. A woman who goes on hormone replacement therapy on or about menopause is going to live longer, on average two to three years longer than a woman taking nothing. The men that took the testosterone were half as likely to be dead. Conventional screening can only theoretically pick up one out of four cancers if everybody had them. MRIs, you pick up a tumor the size of peanut that can be removed. Once the size of a walnut, you got a problem. We really evolved from years ago having health insurance to keep you from going bankrupt when you had a heart attack or something like that to maybe doing some screening. But does it really making you healthier.
