This is a bizarre article.
In the UK, average life expectancy at birth was 81 years, according to 2021 data from the World Bank - the same as in Slovenia, Portugal, Germany, the Netherlands, Denmark and Austria.
To frame that as “the UK has one of the lowest life expectancies among rich countries” is… misleading, to say the least. Why does Germany have one of the lowest life expectancies among rich countries? Why does Denmark?
they need a loicense to live longer i reckon
After 12 years in the UK I’m going out on a limb and say the answer is “they eat like shit”.
A shocking amount of my former colleagues refused to eat veggies or fruit. I mean, ANY kind of veggies.
I couldn’t wrap my head around that. No wonder they have a shorter life span, what do you expect?
Ah also: they drink like fucking sailors on leave all days of the week.
Saw some youtube content on what they eat… holyshit. WW2 is over!!!
America has similar problem but no nearly as bad. Kids don’t know where vegetables and eggs come from. Generations eating trash…
Just got back from a 2 week tour of the UK…practically all food is fried.
