Claire. Posted March 18, 2017 #1 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Indigenous South American group has healthiest arteries of all populations yet studied. An 80 year old from the Tsimane (pronounced chee-MAH-nay) group had the same vascular age as an American in their mid-fifties, suggests a new report. The Tsimane people -- a forager-horticulturalist population of the Bolivian Amazon -- have the lowest reported levels of vascular aging for any population, with coronary atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) being five times less common than in the US, the research shows.

Parsec Posted March 19, 2017 #5 Share Posted March 19, 2017 But yeah, theoretically the less processed food, the better. Then you find out how they feed animals and you decide that maybe vegetables are healthier. Then you learn about what ends up in our soils and groundwaters, from which veggies draw nutrients, and understand that it's probably nigh impossible to have real healthy food in our Western world. And then you realise that a big mac is not so bad after all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't lower bad cholesterol by starving yourself of saturated fat. Saturated fat is an essential nutrient which is the main building block of all your bodies cells. Starving yourself of it causes accelerated aging. You instead reduce LDL by eating enough Omega-3. A pint of whole cows milk contains as much Omega-3 as a portion of oily fish. Low and behind the people drinking it have low LDL not high. Edited March 20, 2017 by RabidMongoose 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LabotomusRex Posted March 28, 2017 #10 Share Posted March 28, 2017 I think that its because they live in one of the largest natural air purifiers in the world(the jungle) all of that fauna cleans the air that they breath also there land is still untainted by environmental runoff due to irrigation,well most of it compared to the rest of the Argentinean beef is also a great example of this,it's the best beef in the world because the cows feed on natural untainted fauna. I learned this from taking bovine liver supplements while working out im not sure but I think that the US FDA requires liver supplements to come from only Argentina because all other beef liver in the world is toxic due to pollution. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There life expectancy also considers their environment,they live amongst creatures that try to eat them and poison them not unlike a metropolitan city found anywhere in the world I know but what they deal with just to survive is primal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
