Experts said combining healthy habits boosts the chances of staving off conditions like Alzheimer’s disease.
They created a chart of six beneficial behaviours, with a healthy diet deemed as eating at least seven out of 12 food groups (fruits, vegetables, fish, meat, dairy, salt, oil, eggs, cereals, legumes, nuts and tea).
Taking part in writing, reading, playing cards or other games at least twice a week is another area of healthy behaviour.
