Doctors have revealed which diet reduces the risk of premature death by 20%
Every person wants to live a long life.
But few people know that you can improve your health and extend your life if you follow certain nutritional rules.
Scientists conducted research for 36 years to understand which diets are good for longevity.
They observed the eating habits of tens of thousands of people.
Every few years they filled out questionnaires and reported on their condition.
As a result, experts came to the conclusion that the common feature of long-livers was the addition of whole grains, vegetables, fruits, nuts and legumes to their diet.
Such products have been shown to reduce the risk of cancer, neurodegenerative diseases and cardiovascular diseases.
This type of diet is called the Mediterranean diet.
The corresponding publication was posted on the JAMA Internal Medicine portal .
