Scientists Finally Discovered Secret To Long Life, But you’ll be Surprised by their findings…

Researchers have finally revealed the secret of a long, healthy life and you won’t like it. We guarantee it!
Premature death could be avoided by making some not really simple lifestyle changes, researchers claim.
A study of 1,000 species of reptiles found that total sexual failure, no children and more greens is the best way to guarantee a long (but miserable) life…

After a thorough survey, an international team, including scientists from the University of Lincoln, the US, Malaysia, Ecuador and the Middle East, came to the following findings:
1) Sex puts stress on the body – any form of stress shortens life. Early sexual maturation and a higher frequency of laying eggs or giving birth were associated with shortened longevity.
2) More greens prolong your life. At least such an approach perfectly works with lizards. Lizards with a
plant-rich diet lived longer than similar-sized carnivores that ate mostly insects.


(Ingestion of a protein-rich diet seemed to lead to faster growth, earlier and more intense reproduction, and a shortened lifespan. Herbivorous reptiles were thought to consume nutritionally poorer food, so they reached maturity later — and therefore lived longer.)
3) Live fast and die young, they say — but live slow, live long. Reptiles in geographically colder regions lived longer – probably due to two factors: hibernation, which offers respite from predators, and slower movement due to a seasonal drop in metabolic rate.


However, the researchers caution, against assuming that all the results apply directly to humans!
This is the first study of its kind on reptiles, which does open up an avenue for further research on other factors that lead to longevity of these and other species.
