Life impact by food type serving

Cloomis's Photo Cloomis 07 Jun 2022

I've done some calculations on data from epidemiological studies on food type effects on all-cause mortality and calculated the impacts on years of lifespan for a 40-year old man based on the number of daily servings per food:

My takeaways were:

  • Nuts, small amount, but every day
  • More whole grains and legumes. Can't get enough.
  • Veggies, fruits. Sure, but don't go out of my way for them
  • Eggs and red meat -- only if really good
  • Processed meat -- just nope
