Heart surgeon reveals four things people should never do after 40

Sleep

Getting the right amount of good sleep regularly might not seem something of dramatic importance while we’re young, but it’s essential for maintaining both physical and mental health.

“Don’t trade sleep for other activities,” Dr. London warned. “This is something that I personally struggle with.

“Recovery is so important throughout our lives but it’s really important as we get older.”

Avoid toxic people

In Dr. London’s opinion, the people who you surround yourself with as you age can also play a pivotal role in how healthy you are.

According to Calm, toxic relationships can impact your mental health and potentially lead to an increase in anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem.

“Finally, avoid toxic people, focus and nurture on your relationships with the people that you care about and love because in the end that’s what truly matters,” Dr. London said.
