Show Info
The people of Okinawa Island in Japan have a saying: "Eat until you are
only 80 per cent full." Is that why they live to such a ripe old age,
with 900 centenarians in a population of a million? Or is it their
soya-rich diet that ensures their ageing clock runs slow? Or perhaps
their lowstress approach to life? US scientists believe it's some
combination of these, as this intriguing Horizon about the world's
longest-living communities explains. Other longevity hot spots in
Sardinia and California are also profiled, and contrasted with a black
spot closer to home: Glasgow, where male life expectancy, at 57 years,
is no better than it was 50 years ago.
