@tofugolem Definitely, the people who live the longest eat whole foods 80% of the time, but they also live in cultures where they have time and the skill to make those kinds of foods. It can be pretty complex.

"Whole foods" is really vague, so I'm not sure how you would back up that statement.

This research is an indictment of how we make poor people eat.

It's the same bad logic behind fancy bottled water from distant springs. At one time, doctors prescribed such things, but it's not that the water from those springs had health-enhancing properties, it's that the tap water back home was fouled in the days before the Germ Theory of Disease.
