HUNZAS secrets for long life, what people eat who do not know tumor diseases

Today we are living longer than ever before. Half of Americans age 65 and older have one or more chronic diseases that cost society more than a trillion dollars a year in medical care. This is not the case in the land of the Hunzas in Pakistan, however, where ordinary people live healthy lives well into their 90s without any chronic diseases. In November 1921, the English physician, Sir Robert McCarrison, visited the USA and gave a lecture entitled "Wrong food in relation to gastro-intestinal disorders".

The most prominent points of the lecture of Dr. The McCarrisons focused on the miraculous health, vitality, and longevity of the Hunza, who along with the Vilcabamba Indians of South America, the Okinawans of Japan, and the Abkhazians of Russia seem to know the secrets of the fountain of youth and happiness.

And what is their secret? Their diet, discovered Dr. McCarrison, plays perhaps the most important role in preventing the development of chronic and debilitating diseases such as cancer, heart disease and diabetes as we age. These diseases are, in contrast, the three leading causes of death in the Western world today.

To put his point in scientific terms, McCarrison conducted a series of ingenious experiments with albino rats at Coonoor in 1927, in which he fed them the diet on which the Hunzakutas and other healthy peoples of Northern India live.

Another group of mice were fed more nutritionally poor diets of white rice, fried vegetables and sugar. A third group of mice was fed the diet of the lower classes of England - white bread, margarine, sweet tea, a little boiled milk, cabbage and potatoes, tinned meat and jam.

The results were nothing short of revolutionary. McCarrison described the first group of Hunzakut rats as follows:

"Over the past 2.3 years, there has been no case of disease in this 'universe' of albino rats, no deaths from natural causes."

On the other hand, the Bengal group of rats suffered from a variety of diseases involving every organ of the body such as the nose, eyes, ears, heart, stomach, lungs, bladder, kidneys, intestines, blood, glands, nerves and reproductive organs. In addition, they suffered from hair loss, malformed backs, weak teeth, ulcers, which made them wild and irritable.

So what are the main specialties of the Hunza, Okinawan or Vilcabamba diet and lifestyle? There are five in total:

1. They eat a diet high in complex carbohydrates but low in calories—about 1,600 to 1,800 calories a day, compared to most Americans who eat between 2,500 and 3,000 calories a day, mostly from refined carbohydrates and sugar.

2. They eat some kind of probiotic food every day—either in the form of kefir or fermented vegetables.

3. In addition to the Okinawans, whose diet consists of about 15-20 percent fish, these elders said mostly plants, not much, and eat meat or fish only on rare occasions, sometimes even once a month.

4. Their protein intake, which mostly comes from plant sources, is quite low, between 20-50 grams per day.

5. Zero percent use of sugar or refined carbohydrates

6. Lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, often raw.

Today we know that the main causes of heart disease, cancer and diabetes can be found in the standard American diet (SAD diet), which consists of large amounts of refined carbohydrates, sugar, animal fat, hydrogenated vegetable oils - all the ingredients that are missing in the longevity diet. The SAD diet, in other words, is the exact opposite of the Hunza diet. This diet is also very similar to the vegan or vegetarian diet promoted by Dr. Joel Fuhrman, whose scientific research has confirmed that longevity and vibrant health are effectively promoted in a diet high in raw and cooked plant-based foods. Additionally, the Hunza diet also echoes the now-famous motto promoted by popular food writer Michael Pollan:
