Six habits named in the description
According to the description, the video covers daily movement, anti-inflammatory eating, brain challenge, strength, social connection and sleep. It says two of these are easy to underrate, but the description does not say which two. For each habit the video is said to present the evidence, the limits of that evidence and one simple starting step. The description also states that you cannot control everything about how you age, but that the evidence suggests more influence than you may have been told. These are the creator's framing statements, not results of a study.

Loneliness, sleep and the educational note
Holt-Lunstad et al. (2015) is described as a meta-analytic review of loneliness and social isolation as risk factors for mortality; the video is said to explain why these are linked to earlier death and to suggest small ways to reconnect. For sleep, the description says the video covers how sleep supports the brain's waste-clearance system, plus practical sleep habits. The description adds an educational note: the video is for general education and is not a substitute for personalized medical advice, diagnosis or treatment.
