Communities known for long, active lives share more than diet and exercise. They move naturally all day, live with a sense of purpose, take time to downshift from stress, and belong to close groups of people who support each other.
Research has looked at each of these. A review of 148 studies found people with strong social relationships had a 50% greater likelihood of survival (Holt-Lunstad et al., 2010). A meta-analysis of 15 studies found more daily steps were linked to lower mortality, leveling off around 8,000-10,000 steps for adults under 60 (Paluch et al., 2022). And in a study of adults over 50, those with a strong sense of purpose had less than half the mortality risk of those with the weakest (Alimujiang et al., 2019).
