There are five blue zones where researchers have found people live the longest, active and medication free lives. In fact, people in the Blue Zones have as many as 4 times the number of centenarians (>100 years old) as the US. The US has only 1.73 centenarians for every 10,000 people. The Blue Zone locations are:

* Sardinia, Italy
* Okinawa Japan
* Icaria, Greece
* Loma Linda, California
* Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica .

In Icaria, remarkably, almost one out of three people make it to their 90s and cancer, heart disease and dementia are nearly non-existent.

Some of the hallmarks of the Blue Zones are:

* Primarily plant based diet
* Meat (especially red meat) is only eaten a few times a month
* Many dishes contain healthy servings of beans
* Plants are indigenous -- and free of pesticides
* Dishes made w/ locally grown herbs
* In the Med, dishes include healthy doses of local Olive Oil
* No processed food and no snacking
* Sunny locale ensures plenty of Vitamin D
* Sugar is mostly consumed from fruits
* Obesity is virtually non-existent

Remaining active is also key in these areas. Most people over 90 still work, with many holding jobs after 100. The low stress, tight knit community is a also key factor in longevity in the Blue Zones.

NIH/Pubmed has many studies that conclude reduced and or meat-free diets extend longevity. Here's one study that shows a large population (monitored over several years) where 12% fewer vegetarians died from all cause mortality:

You are obviously not a scientist. It most certainly is just a map of DNA genetics for lifespan.

your original point doesn't really make sense. WHy would someones location effect their DNA?

You are not a real person. Your posting comment history shows you are a bot disenchanter fake user meant to scare aware high IQ people by frustrating them from free speech social sites by feigning ignorance.

In case you are merely a child, I will answer you in full though. One time.

Locations are highly correlated to human DNA for the average people who still live in the regions.

There are many many science papers that track the Y DNA (father lineage), and egg cell Mitochondrial DNA

See ? Mother and Father lineage is highly related to map regions, as are all other past DNA genes on average.

Genes determine how long a person lives on average.

Some hacks to telomere length can override (shorten or lengthen).

Genetics still show that humans are primates, and primates are mostly vegetarian animals. So it makes perfect sense the regions where humans are eating primarily plant based diets, with minimal animal and meat products show the best health outcomes.
