Dr. Annu Navani Urges 4 Low-Cost Longevity Habits Over Living Past 120

Summary
Four low-cost habits — sleep, stress control, nutritious eating and regular exercise — can do more for healthy aging than pricey biohacks, Dr. Annu Navani said.
Navani argued longevity medicine should add healthy years, not promise immortality, saying claims that people will routinely live beyond 120 or 130 are a false promise.
Seven hours of sleep, meditation, balanced meals and exercise form the core plan; for adults in their 50s and beyond, she singled out high-intensity resistance training for bone and muscle health.
150 minutes of moderate activity a week — or 75 vigorous minutes plus two strength days — remains the CDC benchmark, while Navani also pointed to VO₂ max as a key longevity marker.
A 1-hour morning routine of three 20-minute blocks — meditation, movement and reading instead of checking a phone — was her example of how to start improving healthspan at any age.
