Hey @techmillion,

thank you for the reply and your interest in the field. Indeed it is difficult to obey the rules of healthy living. To be honest there is much more you have to take into account. Nevertheless, what really counts is to be aware of it. The knowledge of these aspects gives you the feeling what is wrong and what is right. To keep this in mind could help you to prevent many things which are not good for you. In the end, you can avoid the worst and have a better living.

You mentioned the fact of presumably unavoidable stressors. That is right and it depends highly on the region you live, the profession you have and the people you are together with. See it as a challenge. I live in an urban region but try to go into nature as often as possible. In long term, I plan a living in an environment which is cleaner and less toxic.

Therefore, try to improve your life every day a bit. You can't change everything immediately, but you can make plans for the future and try to get there step by step.

To stop smoking and to avoid smokers is one of the most important things, in my opinion. Next is stress. Many stress is somehow self-made. For instance, by being angry about something you can't change.

Doing a bit more sports and eat more plants is, in my opinion, easy to implement.

Set goals and try to get there every day at least a bit and you will find a way out of this trap.

I wish you all the best and stay disciplined.
