Brief Answer:
Life expectancy is multifactorial

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking

I read your question and i understand your concern. Life expectancy is some thing which needs books of biblical volume to be written about.

In short words, healthier lifestyles, natural foods , earlier screening, increased awareness of the disease and early screening and prevention of it, along with circumstantial factors like economics, facilities of healthcare, gender ( women live longer than men) etc altogether affect life expectancy.

Average life expectancy of an XXXXXXX citizen is 78.8 years with women having 81 and men having of 76. 100 years back it was hardly in fifties. So du eto advancements in healthcare and increased awareness this has increased dramatically.

I hope it helps. take good care of yourself and dont forget to close the discussion pelase.

Brief Answer:
Yes for faith, natural for food

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for getitng back to me

I always tell my subordinates and colleagues as my professor says, Medicine is the only branch of science which does not work with out faith. So yes faith plays a part.

As far as foods are concerned, prefer more natural and less canned and processed foods. Don't eat full stomach and regular exercise. Watching out for weight alone fixes or at least delays masny problems and thus playing naturally. Nutshell, one word answer to your question is follow mother nature.

I hope it helps.
