You might have heard or read about these  studies, and you are interested to know the healthy lifestyle of  Seventh Day Adventists.

In a study done on 34,192 Seventh Day Adventists in California from 1976 up to 1986,  it was found out that Seventh Day Adventists have longer lifespan compared to non-Adventists. This could be attributable to their healthy lifestyle.

Seventh Day Adventists, like most Christians believe that the body is the holy temple of God. As such, they refrain from all intoxicating drinks, coffee, tobacco, sea foods, and other unclean food such as pork that may defile it.

Some Seventh Day Adventists follow a strict health diet. More are vegetarians, and abstain from eating flesh meats of animals including fish. Some are total vegetarians, but others are lacto-ovo vegetarians, consuming some eggs and milk sometimes.

The healthy lifestyle of Seventh Day Adventists is not in diet alone. Their healthy lifestyle includes the balanced relationship of the 4 aspects of life: physical, mental, social, and spiritual. They believe that to be truly healthy a man must be healthy physically, mentally, socially,  and spiritually.

Seventh Day Adventists practice vegetarianism. They have regular physical exercise under the sun every morning, and practice sanitary hygiene. They visit the sick and help the needy in the community, and encourage and tell them of God’s amazing love for all.

Seventh Day Adventists have their daily devotional worship every morning and every night by singing praises to the LORD and studying the Holy Bible. They go to church to worship every Wednesday night, Friday night, and during the whole day of Saturday. The secret of their health is in their resting from their secular labors and keeping the seventh day sabbath holy on Saturday.
