The subject of human life span has been discussed over and over again at countless scientific meetings, conferences and congresses on nutrition, health-care, geriatric medicine, epidemiology, etc, but scientists and the best of minds cannot come to any consensus to pin-point specific causes. The factors are multi-aetiological (many causes).

There are many reasons on the variations of life expectancy for various races and countries all over the world. Various reasons have been postulated in classical text-books, journals, paper presentations, forums, and in lectures at universities.

Among the factors agreed on in a super-summary are:

• Nutrition (under in children and over in adults, choice of food, preparations and dietary lifestyle, etc)

• Gender (females longer, males shorter)

• Ethnicity (race)

• Genetics (parents)

• Stress (at work and ‘high-achievers’)

• Mental and spiritual outlook (negative thinking, quarrelsome personality, personality A, Type, etc)

• Occupation (doctors, CEO, executives, target-oriented occupations are chief targets for shorter life expectancy)

• Lifestyles (late nights, overweight, over-eating, lack of physical activities, etc)

• Environment (pollution, noise, chemicals, water, air, etc)

• Exposure to pathogens and radiation (infections by bacteria, viruses, parasites, pathogen, x-rays, MRI, mobile phones, computers, modern ionizing gadgets, natural cosmic rays, and ultra violet rays, etc)

• Free radicals damage (metabolic wastes, drug breakdown, lack of fruits and vegetables, recycled cooking oils, over cooking, ultraviolet radiation, etc)

• Intake of synthetic drugs and medications used in modern medicine (iatrogenic diseases) and nosocomial infections acquired in hospitals and cross-border infections

My very simple advice to everybody is:

• Eat as little as possible, preferably on fruits, vegetables, and cereal grains

• Bowel rest once or twice a week with physiological fasting on fruit juice

• Work and think hard

• Forgive and forget even thy enemies

• Have a calm spiritual and philosophical attitude

• Give love, compassion and stretch out your hands to those less fortunate without showing off how much you give.

• Live a simple life, have food, clothes and be content

• Have as little in life as biologically and socially possible.

• The rest biologically are all unnecessary.

Your life span will be rewarded to the end of it genetic tethers of 120 years of fruitful, happy and contended life.

Going up into the mountain as you suggested, or up into the Himalayas to be exposed to more ultra violet rays, probably more exposure to background cosmic radiation, blizzards of snow, frigid temperatures, and glacial avalanche, or go to Genting Highlands to be exposed to noise, stress, loss of money can truly be said ‘nearer thy God to be’.
