The 'retirement curse,' and how to avoid it

Society has a strange relationship with growing older, loaded with false expectations and somewhat backward logic. Many of us will work through our best physical years, grow completely used to being instructed what to do, then when you are a little more tired than before and likely more ready to sit for longer periods, you’re given all this free time and an allowance for fun. It’s supposed to be this incredible gift we give ourselves, but studies are showing it's turning out to be more of a curse than a blessing if you don't do it right. Click through to learn about what the "retirement curse" is, how it might affect you, and how you can take concrete steps to avoid it.

Millions were told blue zones hold the secret to living to 100 then researchers checked the birth records

Blue Zones have been promoted as places where unusual numbers of people live to 100, inspiring an entire longevity philosophy built around diet, exercise and lifestyle. But this conversation questions whether the extraordinary story is as scientifically solid as it appears. The speaker argues that the absolute number of centenarians involved is extremely small and points to demographic research questioning the reliability of age records in some purported longevity hotspots. He also highlights a fundamental problem with turning observations from very different communities into one supposedly “optimal” diet: residents of Sardinia, Okinawa, Costa Rica and Loma Linda do not necessarily eat the same foods or live the same lives. The broader warning is not that vegetables, beans, exercise or avoiding smoking are bad ideas, but that a sensible collection of habits can become something very different once it is marketed as a formula for reaching 100.
