If you are in your mid-50s or older, what advice would you have for someone in their 20s or 30s so that they could increase their chances of maintaining reasonably good health in the long term, setting aside individual factors such as hereditary susceptibility to certain health issues, accidents, medication-induced illnesses, etc.?
By "reasonably good health," I mean being able to function completely autonomously, not having severe chronic health issues such as severe diabetes, severe heart disease, etc., (excluding cases of any of these that are hereditary) and having enough physical strength to engage in physical activities like workouts, long walks, or perhaps even running.
Obviously, I know that any posts in this thread are not supposed to replace professional advice or doctor's visits. I'm just interested to know what has helped other people to maintain or regain good health over the long term.
Thanks in advance!
