hummm,,,not sure if what we eat is the biggest culprit in cutting short ones longevity!!,,I grew up on a subsistance farm with my grandparents,,,,,I would challenge anyone here to eat what they considered good food!!!,,,,very high fat,,high salt,,very few greens,,,,preserved food mostly,,,,,no one knew there was such a thing as cholesterol,,,,,,how old were they when they passed,,,he 94,,,,she 96!!,,,,hummmmm,,,,,,,,my theory,,,,,well,,,anyone with weak genes to such a diet or other related disease died early and never passed their weak genes on to the next generation,,,,,,,,,,if you were not resilient to general disease you were in a box by the time you were in your 20s!!,,in fact Gramps made coffins which were not far from being ruff boxes way back in those years,,,cleaning out the homestead this summer I sent one unused coffin to the land fill with a scare crow in it!!!,,,,, :o),,yep I did!!,, I am sure someone would have to peek in!!
