Has anybody figured out why eastern and asian people live longer than folks in the western world? you would think that with the medicines and health care have know we would live longer than folks over there who often dont have health care. the oldest person in the world died at 128 and she was japanese. i think the oldest person in the world right now is asian woman that is 118, she saw the collapse of the ottoman empire. also the 118 year old woman never saw a doctor til she was about a hundered for a checkup. very intersting....

Statistically, people who live long don't get sick much.
I really went out on a limb there
I think that people who live long also tend to avoid stress in their lives by having easy jobs and/or control over their lives.
Another thing I heard is that a diet that is deficient in calories but still contains nutrition will actually slow down the aging process, which might explain the Asians averages.

There is supposed to be a tribe in the jungle that the people commonly live over 100. they dont have kids until they feel that they are mature enough. Like at 70. They drink water over there that looks like milk. It has a lot more calcium in it than milk. Calcium is supposed to help our DNA replicate and not deteriate everytime it replicates, so we live longer.
That last sentence hurt my head.

also, that asian woman that was 118 said she drank a lot of milk, ill bet the large calcium intake, staying healthy, eating proper food, and staying away from doctors is the way to live long. also i know that native amercians ( at least before we commited the genocide on them) were regulary living 100 at least and longer. they say were living longer with all this new techonlogy and medicine, i say thats bogus. for real about 100% of those drugs the pharmescitual companys are advertising are very bad for you. they barley even test those drugs, and the listed side effects are just the begining. the number 4 killer in the U.S right now is chemotherapy. one last thought, doctors and pharmesutical companys dont make money off the healthy.

I'd rather have more lif in my years then years in my life. I dont really care how long I live, as long as I'm happy . I've seen to many young people that are in care homes and have other problems. I just wantto be happy and healthy for however long i live.
