Life Living and Lifestyle

<p>A life is what is given to us; a lifestyle is what is given by us. Research claims that maintaining only 5 good habits-eating a healthy diet exercising regularly drinking only in moderation not smoking and maintaining a healthy body weight-can not only keep the life vibrant through years but also extend a woman's life expectancy at age 50 by 14 years and a man's by 12 years. The book <em>Life Living and Lifestyle</em> illustrates these aspects of lifestyles with a special connection between human evolution and civilization! This book along with its four companion books-<em>Nature Is My Teacher; Of Human Nature and Good Habits; How to Win Nature and Enjoy Good Life and Health and Medical Care</em>-constitutes a series that tells the nature-human connection and its implication in our daily life in the related set of separate episodes.</p><p><em>Life Living and Lifestyle</em> deals with lifestyle experiences of daily living.
