Unfortunately, anti aging is exercise(even light calisthenics like yoga and walking outside) , eating healthy(preferably as vegetarian as possible for heart health) , never stop learning and socializing.
Pro aging is modern living: sedentary, eating highly processed foods, being a shut in just consuming content.
From my experience, both are positive feed back loops. Being sedentary makes you tired. You are too tired to cook, so you eat what’s easy. It’s easier to stay home than going out. You dont sleep well from stress so you’re tired all day, over eating, and drinking as much caffeine as you’re body can handle.
Exercise gives you energy, better mood, reduces stress, helps you sleep better, which means you’re more likely to cook healthy, go out and socialize etc, etc.
It sucks because there’s inertia and, even when I was working out 3 or 4 times a week, I never felt happy about going to exercise until about halfway through or coming home.
I work in a hospital and see people with really bad quality of life. I know that obviously people in hospitals are sick, but with dementia in their 50s and 60 year olds that are just strong enough to walk to the bathroom with assistance I hope I die before any serious problems come up.
