Did you know there is a general misconception about genetics and aging?
Genetics is only one part of aging well – and NOT the dominant factor.
Some may think it is all about “good genes”. Says Gary Small, director of the UCLA Center on Aging and author of “The Longevity Bible” Longevity Bible (Hyperion):
“Studies on successful aging have shown that only one third of what predicts how well we age is controlled by genetics. About two thirds is based on our personal lifestyle choices — and is therefore under our control!”
Don’t believe that you are locked in to your history and genes. Make great choices with exercise, healthy goods, mind activities and wellness to make an impact on your life!
