Interviewee is Joel Wallach, a well respected naturopathic doctor & veterinarian. He says the difference in these locations is the gluten in the diets.
I’ll let you decide. I believe diet is a huge factor, but I think it’s more complex. To live more like Asia the Western nations need to:
- Increase fresh vegetables, fruits, legumes (beans), nuts, whole grains (irrespective of gluten).
- Reduce consumption of animal products.
- Increase mobility (exercise).
- Relax/reduce stress.
