If someone said cutting cheese out of your diet would add a year to your life, you might say not worth it. But THIS is pretty significant: A new study identified eight habits that can add over TWO DECADES to your life if you adopt them all by age 40 . . . 24 years for men, and 21 years for women.

You’re already doing a few of them, hopefully. 24 is just the max compared to someone who does none of them.

Here are the eight things you need to do . . .

1. Exercise.

2. Don’t get hooked on opioids or pain pills.

3. Don’t smoke.

4. Manage your stress.

5. Eat a mostly plant-based diet.

6. Avoid binge drinking.

7. Get enough sleep.

8. Have friends, and maintain good social relationships.
