Five extra minutes of sleep, two minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity (such as brisk walking or climbing the stairs), and half an extra serving of vegetables a day could result in an extra year of life for those with the worst rest, exercise, and eating habits, the authors conclude.
An optimal combination of these behaviors: sleeping 7 to 8 hours, doing 40 minutes of moderate or vigorous physical activity a day, and eating a healthy diet could mean more than 9 years of additional life expectancy and good health.
The conclusions of this second investigation are based on the study of almost 60,000 people from the United Kingdom Biobank, recruited between 2006 and 2010, and with an average follow-up of eight years.
Both research focuses on general benefits to society based on data collected in rich countries and not on specific people. The authors highlight the need to do more studies of this type in nations with lower incomes.
Despite the observational nature of both studies, both reinforce the evidence that very small and realistic changes in habits can have critically important benefits in reducing mortality from all causes. The reactions to these works collected in Science Media Center.
