Again I believe DNA primarily determines longevity; albeit moderation of all things, good eating habits and moderate exercise can't hurt.



As to food a writer finally makes sense. he tells of a 1939 study where a group a toddlers were offered 34 a variety of foods. Left to their own they all chose food that provided the best nutrients for them.



Mark Schatzaker's "The Dorito Effect" essentially states that nature intended our DNA to rely on flavor to determine what is good for us . Those natural cravings are a clue to what you need. the problem is our food , livestock, etc is getting blander and we are using too many added synthetic flavors which misguide us into eating junk foods. Strawberry flavoring does substitute for the essential nutrients in a strawberry, etc great read

You've offered some new information. I'll enjoy doing some research and learning more. Thanks.
