Dr. Scott’s Plan for Living Longer

Let’s face it – we all want to live a longer, healthier life.
And it seems like this is happening for some folks.
In the fact, the oldest person in the world — a French woman who lived to be 122 years old – could just be the beginning of a class of supercentenarians.
Because scientists now know that humans could live much longer than 122 years.
But only if you’re getting proper nutrition… and minimizing stress.
And today, I will show you exactly how to do both.
Like most of us, you probably won’t live as long as you could.
That’s because your body is constantly bombarded by toxic prescription drugs, pesticide-riddled foods and stress.
And the mainstream’s nutrition advice won’t help you either.
But I will.
Like I said before, the key to extending your life is good nutrition and stopping stress. And if you follow these three steps, you can do both.
Dr. Scott’s Plan for Living Longer:
- Start with Food: proper nutrition begins with eating more fruits and veggies. The plants are full of special molecules – called phytonutrients—that can help lower inflammation and stop the disease process. You can get more of these health-boosters by choosing a variety of brightly-colored plants. Next, cut all processed foods and add in more fermented foods like yogurt. This swap will balance your gut, which can also negate the effects of stress.
- Keep Your Body, Mind and Spirit Active: Yes, this means exercise. Work in your garden, play golf or tennis, ride a bike, go for walks. Use your brain as often as you can. Try crossword puzzles or other games that keep you engaged. Practice some form of spiritual life. Many studies have shown that all three of these actions can help reduce stress and extend your life.
- Increase Sleep: This goes without saying. Good sleep is the key to combating stress and making sure your body uses the nutrients you eat properly. Study after study show that getting 8 or more hours of sleep every night can boost your health and help you stick around longer.
Health and Happiness,
