Habits in Your 30s Can Support Healthy Ageing

Your thirties can be a good time to build healthy habits. A BBC Future report says that exercise, regular sleep, healthy food and less alcohol may support better health later in life. These habits cannot stop ageing or promise that a person will never become ill.

Strong muscles and good movement can help people stay active as they get older. A brisk 15-minute walk after a meal is one simple way to move more. Fruit and vegetables can also be part of a healthy diet.

Researchers say small habits can add up over many years. It is never too late to make changes, but starting earlier may help people build a stronger base for later life.
