The drop in U.S. life expectancy has put the country only a few years above the world average, while in 1960, it was 17 years ahead.

      Have you seen what white people eat and the average weight of white people and Asians in the US?

      Also that number is a bit disingenuous, should’ve compared Asian women to black women, Asian men to black men (edit: not saying that black people don’t have a much lower life expectancy than average, just that it’s a dishonest statistic for the article to compare against which hurts its credibility)

      Women live longer than men in every country because men are more likely to have heart issues and a bunch of other fatal issues later in life
