91 years. This doesn't mean anything to me, though, because I could live much more or much less, all depending on how long God wants me to be on this earth.

I think that sunscreen question is a bit stupid, considering as race plays a role in likelihood of getting skin cancers or diseases.

102.

I had a great grandma that was 101, and a great aunt that was 102.

I exercise a lot and eat well. Low stress and no significant vices.

gay guys have a lower life expectancy based on the fact that they're gay... a lot more stressful than being hetero. not to mention the whole aids thing. they shoulda probably included that in the calculator...

I don't stress about it.
Most of my stress comes from money issues and health issues. < - hypochondriac

eh, didn't have to. It's in my family genes on both sides to live long. I don't eat red meat, I don't snack on sugary things, my blood pressure is like 90/60, I have low cholesterol, run several miles/week, work out 4 days/week, eat a ton of veggies & fruits.

58 years. I need to shave 28 years off--I already smoke, drink, and eat too much. Does this mean I have to go around picking up chicks with AIDS or something?

86....but I'm in my early 20's and want to get married (+3), I know I need to exercise more and usually do doing the warmer months (+3). Haven't gotten the cholesteral checked in awhile, but I have a genetic problem from my dad (low good). My mom was healthy as a horse, then died of lung cancer suddenly (never smoked). Don't really think I should start taking asprin now (flaw). Another flaw is working less than 40 hrs a week (HA!, must be Europeans whow wrote this;)) I love desserts too much and make them frequently and am NOT giving them up. However I have a great diet and take everything in moderation.

I figure I'm doing pretty well since genetics aren't really helping me!

86, I received this as one of the comments.

Nope.

It does improve heart health because it reduces inflammation. It also improves heart health by suppressing testosterone production, thereby increasing estrogen, which promotes heart health.

A better idea would be to take a fish oil supplement with DHA/EPA. Superior anti-inflammatory, and it helps with much more than the circulatory system. It also improves hormone levels, not fvck them up.

WTF? It says I'm scheduled to live to 72, then gives me a list of things that will add X years to my life. If I changed all of those things right now, I will supposedly live to nearly 120 years old. See why all this health stuff is BS? ;)

yeah, but i bet it's like a subconscious level of stress knowing that you're so disliked by so many ignorant people who've never even met you just because of how you are...
