Higher Study Influence Better Health and Longevity

A lot of us believe that genetics and affluence are the best predictors of longevity, but recent study indicates that education is significant than genetic predisposition, race, or any other factor in predicting longevity. This indicates a well-educated human originating from a poor family has better prospects for a longer, healthier life than an uneducated rich person.

Additional factors such as smoking, social support, physical exercise, diet, and working in work where one has some degree of power and control as well play a significant role in longevity. But better education increases the chance of having a much better job and living a healthier way of life.


Scientists have discovered that people who receive more education live longer and healthier lives, and that education is even more essential to longevity than wealth.

people that have more education have better reading abilities, and thus have the potential to develop greater health literacy
