    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.

        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

        More so, we can replicate those diets and not see anything like the changes people claim come from just changing the diet.

        The answer is and has always been “we’re all forced to work ourselves into early graves.” We can replicate everything except not working 80% of you adult awake hours, to be allowed to live.

        As a culture, we just don’t have the courage to deal with that.
