Compared to life expectancy which is the average number of years remaining of a given age or living of a certain group's people, longevity is a long life out of the boundary of the life expectancy.
Truly, we all dream to live healthy and with longevity. However how many of us can maintain health and prevent the onset of chronic disease?
Some researchers suggested that by following a healthy lifestyle and moderate exercise healthy longevity can be achieved.
Dr. Mehta N in the study of the healthy lifestyle impact on life expectancy wrote, "Compared to the whole US population, those with such a favorable behavioral profile had a life expectancy at age fifty that was seven years longer, and they experienced a delay in the onset of disability of up to six years".
The results clearly suggested the massively damaging effects caused by unhealthy behavioral risks on health at older ages.
Furthermore, Dr. Vincent Gremeaux and colleagues on the differentiation of exercise and longevity said, "As the number of older individuals continues to increase, it is important to develop interventions that can be easily implemented and contribute to “successful aging”".
And, " In addition to a healthy diet and psychosocial well-being, the benefits of regular exercise on mortality, and the prevention and control of chronic disease affecting both life expectancy and quality of life are well established".
Regularly moderate exercise has been found to have partially reverse effects on the aging process on physiological functions and preserve functional capability in the elderly.
Epidemiological studies strongly suggested that healthy longevity can be achieved by maintaining a minimum quantity and quality of exercise, preventing the development of certain cancers, and lowering the risk of osteoporosis.
Ginger (Zingiber officinale) or ginger root, the second superfood used for thousands of years by mankind, is the genus Zingiber, belonging to the family Zingiberaceae, native to Tamil.
The root has been used in traditional and Chinese medicine to treat dyspepsia, gastroparesis, constipation, edema, difficult urination, colic, etc.
Researchers on finding a bioactive compound for healthy longevity examined the shell ginger (Alpinia zerumbet (Pers.) B.L. Burtt & R.M. Sm) of the ginger family (Zingiberaceae) activity in the population in the Okinawa Islands of Japan.
According to the review of the literature, culinary shell ginger may contribute to longevity among the population in Okinawa probably due to the procession of phytochemical content with antioxidants and its effects on anti-obesity properties.
Some researchers suggested that the longevity of the population may also be attributed to the shell ginger in the promotion of health in reduced diseases by exhibiting anti-inflammatory, fungistatic, and antibacterial activities against Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, and Bacillus cereus activity.
Shell ginger also is proven to have a positive effect on neuraminidase enzymes and inhibition of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1).
Dr. Rolf Teschke in the examination of the mortality rate of Japan's general public compared to the population on the island wrote, "Cardiovascular disease as the top cause of death for both sexes and neoplasms as the second leading cause of death in Japan nationally, with major variations among the prefectures"
And, " Comparing Japan overall with Okinawa, the mean mortality rates from ischaemic heart disease, Alzheimer’s disease, breast cancer, and oesophageal cancer were not remarkably different. However, for Okinawa, four death categories were significantly lower, including ischaemic stroke, stomach cancer, pancreatic cancer, and liver cancer due to hepatitis C.
The finding clearly suggested that the intake of shell ginger which was not found in other areas in Japan may contribute to the healthy longevity of the population in the Okinawa Islands of Japan.
In a joint study led by Woosuk University, Korean scientists evaluated the compound 6-gingerol longevity-promoting activity. isolated from the most active ethyl acetate soluble fraction on Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans).
Injection of 6 gingerol elevated the survival rate of worms against stressful environments including thermal, osmotic, and oxidative conditions.
The bioactive compound elevated the antioxidant enzyme activities of C. elegans and showed a dose-depend reduction of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation in worms.
Furthermore, 6 gingerols also demonstrated increased stress tolerance, leading to the promotion of stress resistance proteins.
The findings strongly suggest that 6-gingerol exerted longevity-promoting activities independently of these factors and could extend the human lifespan.
Taken altogether, ginger and shell ginger may be considered functional foods for the promotion of healthy longevity with no side effects, pending the confirmation of a large sample size and multicenter human study.
