Why Do People Of This Poor Caribbean Island Live So Long?

Cubans are proud of their longevity. Certainly the totally free and complete medical care and stress free environment contribute greatly to length and quality of life, as does the the availability of community recreational, cultural and educational programs. A methodical life with varied food habits, which does not exclude tobacco or coffee, would be the "secret formula" to achieve satisfactory longevity. A study of 54 cuban centenarians over 100 years old showed that 95% of the elderly have "a varied food habit" based on fish meat, eggs, milk, red meat and vegetables seasoned with natural spices and a little salt.

I think it’s amazing that these people live to 100+. Personally for me, I wouldn’t want to live that long. Probably because I have horrible medical conditions which make everyday difficult. Great to live that long if you have good health, mental and physical.
