  • Why are Icelandic men the longest lived men?

    On average they live to 79.4. Why?

    Seafood.
    I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

        What about fruit and veggies? We have much better variety of those here in the US. Fiber rich grains...

        Screw all that, just eat fish?

          Sure. Why not?

            What else is there to do but live?
            Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

              The secret is they're being very careful not to fall into any volcanoes.

                otherwise, i think to non polluted air and the slow paced (read boring) life has a lot to do with it... no stress

                      The estimated life expectancies of vegetarian California Adventists were 80.2 years for men and 84.8 years for women.

                          DanS is probably right. Japanese also live long (I thought that they hold the records for both men and women), and they eat a lot of fish (and even algae).

                            The trick is not to live long, but to live like a ****ing rock star.

                              I agree that eating some kinds of fish is healthy. They have a B vitamin which is only found in a few foods. Less stress is good too.

                              Stats also show that old people last longer is cold weather. Those who retire to Florida die quickly, while those who stay in New York hang on and on.
