The best thing for massive life expectancy increases in your country:
- Keep poor birth records
- Offer generous age pensions
I heard about a study that women who own horses live longer. The comment below was "if you can afford a horse you can probably afford health insurance. It isn’t the horse "
Tbf diet is a factor, too. Not living in a food desert is a huge plus.
But seriously, the Mediterranean Diet is also a thing discussed in Europe while the north is wealthier and has better social security. Still, no one recommends the Scandinavian Diet or living without sunlight in winter. I still value the post as a meme. I don’t want to be the actually guy but just provide some context.
Didn’t someone prove that these statistics are all thrown off by pension fraud?
Yeah it was all pension fraud, but the current idea of a Mediterranean diet has had quite a bit of testing since and is probably healthy
Cutting out processed food is going to be healthy anyway
Move more. Eat better. Have better access to medical care and no stigma in using it.
There was also an article a while back that most “blue zones” (I think they were called) are probably BS with inconsistent and bad measurement.
Bad measurements, cases contrary to the researcher’s point were excluded, the biggest factor in places with too many people over age 100 was pension fraud - 40 year olds claimed to be 60 to get a pension, 40 years later they’re 80 year olds pretending to be 100
It’s both? Mediterranean and Japanese diet are said to be the healthiest diet. There is a reason why Mediterranean and Japanese are the longest lived in comparison to everyone. If anyone isn’t convinced, compare with the Polynesians. They also eat lots of fish and coconuts like the Japanese, but they are some of the most obese in the world due to their wide adoption of ultra processed and fast foods.
I’m pretty sure the Greek and Japanese longest living people were achieving their age less through diet and more through pension fraud. They live as long as equally wealthy places if they were born after good birth records started being kept
The Polynesians have sugar cane which has caused them health problems since before they had access to processed food, Japan is too far north for sugar cane.
What’s more depressing than American healthcare?
Canadian conservatives replacing theirs with the American system without a fight.
