Following a healthy lifestyle in middle age could reduce your risk of chronic disease later in life, according to new research.
Carried out by researchers from Boston University School of Medicine, the new study looked at 1,445 middle-aged adults with an average age of 60 and gave each a score for their cardiovascular health based on smoking status, diet, physical activity, resting blood pressure levels, body mass index, fasting blood glucose levels and cholesterol levels.
Although it is already known that certain unhealthy lifestyle behaviours, smoking for instance, are linked with a higher risk of disease and death, the researchers say that until now, no studies had looked at how maintaining a healthy lifestyle over a period of time could be linked with the risk of disease and mortality.
“Our results indicate that living a longer period of time in adulthood with better cardiovascular health may be potentially beneficial, regardless of age.
