it could just be saying that you are on borrowed time (like, who isn't?). i got a pretty good score but one bout with alzheimer's and there goes that planning too.
i've mentioned elsewhere, part of the impetus of my e.r. was watching mom dying of alzheimer's and thinking i wanted 20 good years for me. but i've got a lot of long-lifers in the family and a.d. in only one bloodline so i need to be fiscally conservative for those first 20 in case i go an extra 20 years. if i do outlast mom, i'm gonna be partying hard at 80 (fortunately by then my real age will be only 75).
though i love nords' comment on the calculator's precision, it does illuminate how much control we might have over our own longevity. drive less (or less like me), exercising more, sleeping between 8 & 9 hours, all likely to increase life expectancy. maybe you can at least bring yours up to your current age. i bet you can surpass it.
you can't work on your body type but can control weight. you can increase exercise which is good for up to about 2 extra years. use self control over stress alone gives up to 4 extra years according to whomever put this thing together.
we have so much control over this. body chemistry, blood pressure, smoking (i'm 15 years non smoking thank you very much), regularity of exams, digestive tract health. for some things you can't change the past you can fix the present & future.
my ol'man should have been dead long before he died. he lived on borrowed time. but mom finally nagged some sense into him. he gave up cigarettes and booze and salt. mom carried a salt gage with her and stuck it in everything he ate. (so funny for us, so annoying for the ol'man.) but he finally learned. i bet she gave him an extra 10 to 15 years of good quality life.
sure there are some things like family heart history & their longevity for which you have less control over.
but diabetes can be controlled. diet alone gives a 4-year spread. regularity of eating. reduction of drink. this stuff is easy. even happiness is just a few sessions away. same thing with depression (though that can also wash with the aforementioned drink). anxiety. relaxation. love. satisaction with your day. friendships. seat belts. risk taking. all within your control.
try this. plug in some other numbers where you'd like to be. what if i slept more. what if i ate a healthy breakfast every day. what if i exercised more. see what life expectancy you get from all that. and then use that to set goals for redefining how you live your life.
Another thing is, I'm 6'1", 130lb.. would that put me in the thin or athletic category?... it's possible that I could be at risk for other health issues.
yes. go eat a cheeseburger, will ya!
