Also, children with longerlived parents have lower incidents of heart disease, stroke, hypertension, anemia, and high cholesterol compared to those whose parents died young. However, the reasons for these findings are unknown. It could be based on great family genetics, or it could be behavioral tendencies. Parents who have never smoked, eat well, and exercise regularly most likely pass on a Healthy Lifestyle to their child. Higher levels of education, income, and physical activity were also common among those with longerlived parents, which leads researchers to believe that the environment of a child also plays a role.
