Renata Micha of Tufts and colleagues developed their list from national surveys covering 16,000 people from 1999-2012. Volunteers filled out food diaries in real time, and were followed for years after to see what happened to their health.
Eating too much sodium, more than 2,000 mg a day, which most people do twice as much, accounted for 9.5 percent of the deaths. Eating too few nuts (less than about a handful a day) accounted for 8.5 percent of deaths; eating too much processed meat accounted for 8.2 percent of deaths; eating too little seafood was responsible for 7.8 percent of the deaths.
In adults under 65, too many sweet drinks and processed meat were the biggest killers.
For people over 65, eating too much salt ......... and too few nuts and veggies were the culprits.
What to eat more of:
  • Nuts

  • Seafood rich in omega-3 fatty acids

  • Vegetables

  • Fruits

  • Whole grains

  • Polyunsaturated fats (such as soybean oil, corn oil, walnuts and flaxseed oil).
  •                                      What to eat less of:

  • Sodium, Salt

  • Processed meats, Salami, Mortadella,

  • Sugar-sweetened beverages

  • Red meat (such as steak or pork chops)
Time and duration is of the essence. If you starting now to adjust your food, your life will improve dramatically.  Just a thought.
