Longevity Studies Reveal Habits That Can Add 20+ Years to Your Life | Feat. Dr. Damon Noto｜Vital Signs

What do longevity studies reveal about the habits and the psychology of those people who live the longest? How can we build longevity principles into our everyday lives?

Dr. Damon Noto MD joins Vitals Signs with Brendon Fallon to highlight key factors for longer life that present across three longevity studies.

What does the recent study of 700,000 U.S. veterans reveal about smoking, exercise, binge drinking, and lifespan?

The “blue zones” are global hotspots where people overwhelmingly live longer than average. What’s unique about the lifestyles of people in those areas?

The “longevity project” tracked the lives of 1,500 Americans from childhood through to death. Which character traits are shared by those who lived the longest?

“A man who is married for a long period of time, over decades, if the wife passes away, they tend to pass away within six months to a year after the wife’s passing away,” says Dr. Noto. “And that is true for men who are healthy or unhealthy.”

Whereas women’s lifespans tend not to be affected by whether they’re married or not, he adds.

What is different in the social life of women versus men that could account for this?

Dr. Noto is a physician and a rehabilitation and pain-medicine specialist based in Hasbrouck Heights, New Jersey. He has twice been ranked in the top one percent of American doctors by the American Registry.
