Ever notice that someone who is in their mid-30s may look like they are in their 20s, while another person who is the same age may appear to be in their 40s? While everyone has their mathematical age based on time, there’s also a “real age,” which is determined by your healthy habits rather than your birthday. According to success.com, here are eleven ways to reduce your real age and appear younger:

  • Take a daily multivitamin. (6 years younger)
  • Quit smoking and avoid second-hand smoke inhalation. (8 years older if you smoke)
  • Low blood pressure. (As much as 25 years younger than someone with high blood pressure.)
  • Lower your stress. (As much as 33 years younger than someone who is under a lot of stress.)
  • Floss. (6.4 years younger)
  • Exercise. (5 years younger)
  • Wear a seatbelt. (3.4 years younger)
  • Eat a fiber-rich diet. (2.5 years younger)
  • See your doctor regularly for preventative care. (12 years younger)
  • Challenge yourself intellectually throughout your life. (2.5 years younger)
  • Laugh often. (8 years younger)
