Longevity is a common goal, and career choices may be an important factor in influencing longevity. Based on the results of the study, we will explore some of the occupations associated with longevity and analyze their possible causes.
Farmers and horticulturists
According to the National Journal of Ecology, farmers and horticulturists generally enjoy long lifespans. This may be because they are in constant contact with the natural environment, enjoy fresh air and sunshine, and engage in physical labor, all of which are beneficial for physical and mental health.
Educators
According to research in the British Medical Journal, educators, especially university professors and teachers, live relatively long lives. A stable working environment, high social status, and better medical care may be one of the reasons for their longevity.
Medical professionals
Medical professionals, such as doctors and nurses, are considered to be one of the groups with a longer lifespan. Their knowledge of health and the importance of a healthy lifestyle, as well as good occupational protection and medical care, may be key factors in their longevity.
Artists & Creatives
A study in the Journal of the American Medical Association states that artists and creatives may also enjoy longer lifespans. The psychological satisfaction and freedom that comes with creating art in a work environment that helps to relieve stress and anxiety and thus maintain physical and mental health.
Social Service Workers
A study in the psychology journal Psychology and Aging found that social service workers, such as counselors, social workers and volunteers, also tend to have longer lifespans. They help maintain mental health by helping others gain a sense of satisfaction and fulfillment.
While career choices may be associated with longevity, longevity does not depend solely on occupation. A healthy lifestyle, good social relationships, moderate exercise, and effective stress management are equally important.
Therefore, no matter what kind of occupation you are in, you should pay attention to physical and mental health, which is the key to achieving longevity.
