[quote=Anonymous]I will give another example. There are populations across the world that live longer and healthier lives than other populations. An area in the Mediterranean in Crete is one population. Their health is a combination of their diet, their mobility (walking around a lot), and their community support. Where in China, India, or Central or South America do you have scientific research or evidence that there are populations thriving well past 100 years of age? It's a marketing gimmick to tout the benefits of Eastern and third world diet and exercise more than it is scientific reality. Than, we're taught about how any nutritious food staples like tea, actually were "stolen" from Eastern cultures by the colonization of the Western cultures. And, so what? Maybe when the Western Europeans colonized sections of the East and the Americas, ideas and food staples were subsumed. However, they were made distinctly Western European. [/quote]
