1. Taking a daily statin (cholesterol-lowering drug) adds 30 minutes a day.

2. Drinking one alcoholic drink a day adds 30 minutes a day.

3. Exercising moderately for 20 minutes a day adds 1 hour a day.

  4. A diet filled with fresh fruits and veggies adds two hours a day. 5. Being female rather than male adds two hours a day. Sorry, dudes! So, what do you think? Are these easy adjustments you can do you tweak your regular routine? All images courtesy Thinkstock.
