Longevity Predictor (Lifestyle-based) Calculator

See a rough, lifestyle-focused estimate of healthy-life expectancy with simple, adjustable inputs.

Input your profile

Formula

Healthy-life expectancy starts from a generic 82-year baseline and adjusts up or down based on resting heart rate, movement, fruit/veg intake, and smoking status.

Each factor contributes a small positive or negative shift, then the result is clamped into a 55–95 year window for practical interpretation.

The equations are simplified and are not calibrated to any specific risk calculator or medical guideline.

Steps

  • Enter your current age in years.
  • Measure or estimate your resting heart rate (beats per minute) at rest.
  • Log total minutes of moderate activity (brisk walking, easy cycling, etc.) you typically accumulate each week.
  • Estimate average daily fruit and vegetable servings.
  • Indicate whether you are a never, past, or current smoker (0, 1, or 2).

FAQs

Is this tool giving an exact prediction of my lifespan?

No. It provides a rough, lifestyle-based estimate of healthy-life expectancy based on broad epidemiological patterns, not personal medical data.

Why is resting heart rate included?

Lower resting heart rates (within a healthy range) often indicate better cardiovascular fitness, which is linked to longevity.

How does smoking status affect the score?

Current smoking heavily reduces the estimated healthy-life expectancy in this model; quitting tends to shift the curve in a better direction over time.

Can I treat this as medical advice?

No. It is an educational calculator only. Always discuss prevention and treatment decisions with healthcare professionals.

What counts as moderate activity?

Activities that raise your heart rate and breathing but still allow conversation, like brisk walking or light cycling.

What if I have chronic health conditions?

Underlying conditions, medications, genetics, and healthcare access all matter but are not modeled here. Use this as a lifestyle lens only.

Can improving my habits change the estimate?

Yes. Higher activity, more plant foods, and not smoking usually nudge the prediction upward in this model.

Does high-intensity training count extra?

This simple model focuses on total moderate-equivalent minutes rather than detailed intensity splits.

Why are fruit and vegetable servings emphasized?

Higher intake is consistently associated with lower risk of many chronic diseases tied to lifespan and healthspan.

Should I ignore genetic risk if my lifestyle score is high?

No. Genetics and family history remain important. The tool simply highlights where lifestyle may support better outcomes.

Summary

The Longevity Predictor (Lifestyle-based) Calculator offers a rough, lifestyle-focused estimate that reflects how a few everyday habits can relate to long-term patterns in this model.

It surfaces where movement, food choices, and smoking status may be nudging your long-term trajectory within this framework.

Use it for gentle reflection and planning only—not as a prediction or substitute for medical judgment.
