    To Be Joyful, To Be Young

    What really works to make sustainable changes in diet and lifestyle? It's probably not what you think. In the past 30 years of conducting clinical research, I {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(learn) that real keys are pleasure, joy and freedom. Joy of living is sustainable; fear of dying is not.

    Why? Because life is to be enjoyed. There's no point {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(abandon) something you enjoy unless you get something back that's even better, and quickly. When people eat more healthfully, {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(quit) smoking, and manage stress better, they find they feel so much better, so quickly. It reconstructs the reason for making these changes from fear of dying to joy of living.

    When you exercise and eat right, your brain receives more blood flow and oxygen, so you become smarter, have more energy, and need less sleep. Two studies showed just walking for three hours per week for only three months caused so many neurons(神经细胞) {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(grow) that it actually increased the size of people's brains!

    Your face receives more blood flow, so your skin glows more and wrinkles less. You look younger and more attractive. In contrast, an unhealthy diet, lasting emotional stress and smoking reduce blood flow to your face {#blank#}5{#/blank#}you age more quickly. Smoking speeds up aging because nicotine contributes to your blood vessel becoming narrower, {#blank#}6{#/blank#}decreases blood flow to your face and makes it wrinkle prematurely. This is why smokers look years older than they really are.

    One of the most interesting findings was that the mothers' awareness of stress was more important than {#blank#}7{#/blank#}was objectively occurring in their lives. {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(give) a questionnaire, the women were asked to rate on a three-point scale how stressed they felt each day. The women who realized they were under heavy stress had significantly shortened and damaged telomeres(染色体端粒) compared with {#blank#}9{#/blank#}who felt more relaxed. Contrarily, some of the women who felt relaxed {#blank#}10{#/blank#}raising a disabled child had more normal-appearing telomeres.

In other words, if you feel stressed, you are stressed.
