A few years ago I did a similar video, Nation’s Diet in Crisis (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/nations-diet-in-crisis/). It’s sad that it doesn’t seem like much has changed.
How Many Meet the Simple Seven? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/how-many-meet-the-simple-seven) is another video in which you can see how your own habits stack up.
For more on fruits and veggies and living longer, see Fruits and Longevity: How Many Minutes per Mouthful? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/fruits-veggies-and-longevity-how-many-minutes-per-mouthful/) Surprised that nuts made the longevity list? See Nuts May Help Prevent Death (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/nuts-may-help-prevent-death). What about legumes? Unfortunately not something considered in the study, but one indeed may get an Increased Lifespan from Beans (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/increased-lifespan-from-beans/).
The reason public health professionals are so keen on measuring lifestyle characteristics is because modest improvements may have extraordinary effects.
See for example:
• Lifestyle Medicine: Treating the Causes of Disease (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/lifestyle-medicine-treating-the-causes-of-disease/)
• Eliminating 90% of Heart Disease Risk (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/eliminating-90%-of-heart-disease-risk)
• Fully Consensual Heart Disease Treatment (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/fully-consensual-heart-disease-treatment/)
Didn’t know the beginnings of heart disease may already be present in children? See my video Heart Disease Starts in Childhood (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/heart-disease-starts-in-childhood/). Is it too late if we’ve been eating poorly most of our lives? It’s Never Too Late to Start Eating Healthier (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/never-too-late-to-start-eating-healthier/).
