Longevity of The Sliabh Luachra People, Ireland 1969

- Why do so many people from the East Kerry & North Cork area known as Sliabh Luachra live long lives?
American pathologist Dr Albert Casey of Birmingham, Alabama collected genealogical records from the Sliabh Luachra area of Munster, publishing them in a 16-volume collection called, ‘O’Kief, Coshe Mang, Slieve Lougher and the Upper Blackwater’. This mass of information was compiled by almost 50 researchers including Mattherw Daly.
Sliabh Luachra lies on the borders of counties Cork, Kerry and Limerick, and is bounded to the south by the River Blackwater. Dr Albert Casey noted that the people from this tiny community have a longer lifespan than average with,
"Very many who are edging on the hundred and are still leading ordinary active lives."
This longevity is in spite a diet of the very things scientists warn are not too good in excess. Matthew Daly does not believe anyone in Sliabh Luachra is concerned about a balanced diet or their cholesterol levels.
They eat the food that is produced here, milk, butter, eggs and bacon and they seem to thrive well on it.
The research undertaken by Dr Albert Casey demonstrates,
The food we eat here, and which gives us long lives, sends Americans to early graves.
Matthew Daly grants this longevity could be down to physical makeup rather than diet.
Dan Horan from the village of Knocknagree in north west County Cork is 71 years old and one of the younger members of the community. Once resident in America, he returned to Ireland for health reasons. He believes his condition improved due to the lack of pollution, less tension, the freedom, calmness and quiet that comes with country living and a
"Better diet in Ireland as everything is fresh."
However he puts his rude health down to plenty of exercise, walking, and hard work.
John Joe Healy of Knocknaboul.in County Kerry is 91 years old and still working on the farm. He has only been ill once in his life,
Kidney trouble after a fierce bout of drink.
John Joe Healy also highlights the importance of clean air, continuous hard work from an early age and
"A good spirit, you’re anxious always to do something good, it keeps you going, you’re looking at tomorrow to do something better."
Brought up eating course food such as yellow meal and wheaten bread. He is an advocate for a diet rich in food produced from the land,
I don’t believe in all these dainty foods at all.
Daniel M O’Connell of Rathmore in County Kerry is 89 years old. He maintains a lively interest in sport and he is organising a Fleadh in the village. He thinks the longevity in the area is due to customs, food, exercise, simple pursuits and not worrying unnecessarily,
Small troubles never bothered me.
Katy Kelly of Knocknaboul is 89 years old. She helps run a busy household and enjoys Irish dancing. She is convinced people live longer in the area due to plenty of hard work and a good, plain, nourishing diet.

Being active every day in the fresh air makes a huge difference.
And their clean food.
This was when RTE was a positive addition to irish society.
I knew both Matthew Daly and Dan Horan.Matty was the headmaster in Knocknagree primary school.On my final year in school, I remember him distinctly saying,"My generation will not see a United Ireland, but yours will.Watch for the year 2000, there will be big changes in the 6 counties, and within a few decades the country will be united"
Dan Horan.Matty was a PROPHET what he said will come true very soon but not soon enough
It's tragic that these people's confidence in their natural traditional diet was challenged by all of that 1960/70s diet nonsense. The peddlars of margarine, vegetable oil, statins and all the rest would soon descend on Ireland. Ancel Keys has a lot to answer for. It's notable that the people in the video are all so lean. it takes more than hard work to hold onto that leanness as you age. Their lack of exposure to processed food, especially vegetable oils, is no doubt a big part of the reason for that.
Every word you say is true
And they probably are are least a couple of pounds of butter and lard every week. The peddlers of the likes of Flora and benocol are death merchants.
Plenty fresh air ,a simple lifestyle great traditional music and set dancing is a great medicine.
My mother reversed her diabetes by eating a lot of cabbage onion potatoes and butter. It also reversed her high cholesterol and high blood pressure. She basically eats what my granny ate ... spuds not a lot of spuds mind you... more on the cabbage and onions end of things...she's in her 70s. And I try to follow suite. Had cabbage potatoes and onions last night. I don't know about smelling the bog though but bogs do sequester toxins ..they absorb air pollution ...not that there would be much out that way.
Truly heart-warming.. The ease at which the memory of the Famine was interwoven with their understanding of there present condition is inspiring. I can clearly remember my father, born only in 1929, having the same clear appreciation of how our people survived in Go. Galway, and relating to us children how he knew an neighbour who had endured the horrors of 1847 as a young girl. God Bless the spirit of the Irish!
❤❤❤
Amen
These people are simply marvelous. Thank you.
Well yes they were and are but i met the most selfish kerry man over 54 yrs ago in england he hated the englsh was a nightmare to live with all ways drunk i got rid of him 😢
That was lovely thank you. Bread milk butter eggs rashers potatoes 💚☘️
All fresh and organic.
They would have been 100% able to digest dairy like most Irish people. It would have been a huge component in their diet. No doctor recommended flora style seed oil rubbish in their diet = no Alzheimer's and dementia, no early deaths from Alzheimer's and dementia related conditions.
That wee lady at the end, If she doesn't make your heart rise.
You're already dead! lol don't fret, you can still meet these characters.
I think it's down to the fresh air. I can't speak about my ancestors in Ireland I don't know enough about them but I do know that two of my Manx ancestors died in their nineties older than later generations who went across.
Absolutely. Also the ' honest ' life style. Being on a small rural island, working the land all day. No fake food. No fake anything really.
Which is why I don't understand why people just won't listen when the very people they're trying to learn about telling you, they believe the bogs purify the air, and brighten the atmosphere.
We should listen. Not laugh.
You'll notice they're already gently mocking them for ' believing ' anything of the sort.
Yep. Good Atlantic air, clean food, early to bed,early to rise, and days full of physical activity.
Best channel on UA-cam
Yes, it's a goldmine.
I am still impressed by the advanced age Irish people live to still today: well certainly what we call the Silent Generation who are still among us. And they had their faith I thoroughly believe prayer fasting has an impact on the physical cells.
Note to non natives;
-- bacon is he name for "ham" (e.g. you'd have it with a stew of cabbage and potatoes). It's my favourite dish.
-- rashers are what you'd get in a full irish breakfast, UK folks call this bacon
I also think there's a missed component to this analysis "exercise" . All these folks would have walked a huge amount in the early days. The nearest villages and towns would be orders of miles --it wasn't uncommon for people to put up 20+ miles in the day
@@fttFrankDaTank What you say is true
They are all bacon. It is a rasher of bacon. Rather is the way it is cut thin. But it is bacon. Ham is from the leg of the animal not the lóin. A ham is the pigs leg. It has a bone through it. The bacon is the other parts of the pig. Both refer to salted pork. In the uk rashers are referred to as rashers. In the usa rashers are referred to as bacon. A rasher of bacon. Like a fried potato chip. Both fries and chips are correct. Just we dropped a different one of the two words. ...ham is the leg of the salted pork and ham would usually be referred to in ireland and the uk as ham. Not sure what americans call ham... probably ham.
Calm, quiet, fresh food, air
Long live the people of Sliabh Luachra and God bless them all, myself, I come from the land of the ever young, a place called Tir Na Nog,
Celtic people were the first people to thrive on dairy. It's not common in the world at large. Not many fruits and vegetables grew naturally in Ireland. They were brought over relatively recently.
I know they would have one orange at christmas. They had apples alright and blackberries and those blueberries that grow on the bogs...they're called something else the native varieties... not mulberries..its also a day in ireland... like the mulberry day... but not muberry ...I cant think of the name but they're basically small blueberries that grow on the bog.
@@serendipidus8482 Bilberry or fraughan
The berries you are referring to are called Black huts.@serendipidus8482
Unprocessed foods :) probably porridge for breakfast and plenty of tea...
Sounds good so I will continue on with my porridge and tea breakfasts
We're not looking in the past. We're looking at the future ☘️🇮🇪
1969 live to the ripe old age of 76 eating that diet. Imagine if they had had Statins what the age would be. Then again a few pints followed by some Paddy "shorts" and 20 Players were countered by a long hard days work and no social media to raise the blood pressure.
This is incredible, thank you
Yellow meal bread,fresh country air and butter from the bog,got it. Cead mile failte.
Yellow meal is corn bread. Nobody ate that except during the famine and its extremely hard to find in ireland even today. You have to go to a foreign import shop to find cornmeal . A mexican shop or buy online ..very very uncommon. Was only eaten during the famine because they had nothing else and they didn't know how to mixtamalize it so it was actually not very healthy or good for them being unmixtamilalized.
Maybe “forced “ intermittent fasting helped ?
RTÉ's Muchael Ryan butchering the pronunciation of Sliabh Luachra.
The reporter cannot pronounce Luachra
sure the rte chaps were only aping the bbc chaps.
They are ahead of the science... butter etc now know to lower cholesterol.... Dr Michael Mosely
Sadly not really any answers to go off, the food must have been similar to other rural Irish communities at the time, as well as the overall culture, going from what was discussed in the video. Perhaps it's a genetic thing?
It definitely is. If you have diseases like diabetes heart disease strokes in your fanily history then youre more likely to die young. If your ancestors generally lived into their 90s you have a fair chance of soing so as well. These small communities in ireland would have contained mostly relatives ...even today in small villages in ireland the majority of people are related to each other.
This great to see, it brings some of us back in time and it will inform many others. This was a normal way of living when I was a young boy with back in time, those were the same foods at the cost those were the fools that were available, that people could grow under little farms, I also yellow meal, publicly was I to have food to eat, I did not go hungry or staff like millions of others did too at the world, we often complain about how hard our life is in fact we have it good compared to many others, should be grateful for the good things that we have, our families and the good people that surrounded, I have brother who works among some of the poorest people in the world and he told me that most times of the year people in his area go hungry for lack of food also water, they receive no government help and no-medical health care except for what my brother can provide for them, yet there are also very lucky that they have somebody that cares about them and helps to improve their lives through my brothers help any supporters
Beautiful people ❤
"I blame the customs,and the food"🤣☘️
👍 👍 👍 👍
I grew up here. In my 70s now. Sadly we’ve just caught up with the rest of the western world.
Can you elaborate? Thanks.
My grandparents were from the area Kilcummin and toreenamult
@@jimc4330 where are now Jim ?!
They are right about the bog if u have bad feet get some bog dirt on them and any cuts too, corragáin moss has iodine in it I seen old lady's collect it many times, I'm from that area and it's still got plenty of old timers dingle town too plenty of 90+ very active people
Good simple food, exercise, faith and the simple life. You have to laugh at places, the 91 yr. old who was sick once in his life, with kidney trouble from a 'fierce bout of drink'. 😀😀 We know now that potatoes, bread, porridge etc. are very good for you. Hard work and exercise. A hardy bunch of people.
Home made soda bread made from irish milled flour instead of the chemical saturated commercial white bread. .
Also people had to do physical work in the fields.
High CO2…. Oxidation is death
Americans are less active that's why
well who woulda thunk that being outside every day, physical labor and natural protein based diet will make you live to old age!
now the big question: how are things in sliab luachra these days????
They would have eaten a lot of lard and dairy fats too. Irish people generally don't get lactose intolerance. Perfectly adapted to digesting dairy. The Romans noted that the Gaels cousins the Gauls and Britons are a lot of dairy. The Romans couldn't digest it in the same quantity so their primary fat was imported olive oil.
@@kevfit4333 true. basically they have genetically adapted to it.
They're as healthy as a hare,🇮🇪🍀🍀🙏.
