The second census in 1964 found that there are centenarians in Bama 28; in 1982 the third national census found that there are centenarians in Bama 50 people, the proportion of the total population of 2.06 for the extreme, that is, 2.06 / million; the fourth census in 1990 found that there are centenarians in Bama 69, the ratio of the total population of 3.08 / million; the fifth census in 2000 found that there are centenarians in Bama 74, the ratio of the total population of 3.10 / million; was also reported that around 2007 or thereabouts, China Research Center on Aging found that 81 centenarians in Bama a total population of 3.58 / million.

Clearly, the absolute number of centenarians in Bama and the relative proportion of the total population are on the rise. This is the rest of the world’s longevity with the number or proportion of centenarians in the phenomenon of decline, in sharp contrast. Why is this?

My analysis that the number of centenarians in Bama is the result of the increase in meat consumption. In 1978, before the reform Bama expected that the number of people to eat meat calculated in months, many families on holidays when you can only eat meat; in 1980, after the Bama people to eat meat can be weeks to calculate the number of times; In 1992, after the Bama people to eat meat to calculate the number of days can be; in after 2000, the number of Bama people to eat meat meal can be calculated, many families began to meat meal. Bama human dietary change is the structure of the entire Chinese people eating a microcosm of the changes. From 1949 to 2005, China’s total number of calories in food to the proportion of protein and fat from 10% to 40%, and is mainly meat-based animal protein increased; At the same time, the population average life expectancy rose from 35 years to 72 years. According to estimates and Bama County Bureau of Statistics, Bama, the average life expectancy from about 1949 up to 40-year-old in 2005 to 76 years old.

As meat consumption increased, the population living longer is a worldwide phenomenon. For example, the United States renowned food anthropologist Marvin Harris pointed out that in between 1909 to 1976, the United States per capita consumption of meat, fish, poultry the number increased by 35%, while in the same period, the average American life expectancy by 40%.

Reason to believe that meat increase is increase in the number and proportion of centenarians in Bama rise in the main reason, as mentioned above, meat is the most concentrated and comprehensive nutritional food, it contains all of the human body needs vitamins, minerals, protein and fats and other nutrients. In fact, animal protein contains all the essential amino acids the human body, and its scale and structure of the human protein closest. Bama people on the basis of very low levels of animal protein, the average life span is lengthened. Some of the world’s longevity in other relatively affluent, animal protein has no room for further increase, on the other junk food has increased drastically, it may lead to the rise in average life expectancy even declined.

Is very funny is that people instinctively like to eat meat on the one hand, and now also eat more of the conditions, while life expectancy has also been extended, while on the other hand along with experts, doctors and even the government (particularly the United States Department of Agriculture), yells, “feast at the table.” And my study found that feast at the table itself is not wrong, the history of mankind to eat meat at least several million years, and thus able to evolve.
Meat of the problem occurs in the emergence of cooking and feeding, especially since the extensive use of antibiotics and hormones, since the. And wild grass (or insects, etc.) animals compared to animals fed with the grain even more obese, their meat contains little linolenic acid and linoleic acid content was too much. And with feed, hormones and antibiotics or Clenbuterol animals, their meat contains less nutrition and more toxins.
From about the 90s of last century, Bama local pigs, chickens, ducks began to feed, feeding, and only horses, cattle, sheep are still grazing. Free-range chicken on average only 3-4 kg each, while the chickens reared up an average of 7-8 pounds each. In June 2009, when I test Chaba Ma, feeding chickens catty 5 yuan, 15 yuan per catty put chickens. 8 yuan per catty of pork farming, grazing horses, cattle, mutton 20 yuan per catty. We know that Bama is a poverty-stricken counties, most families have limited cash income, most will choose to buy cheap breeding animals, meat.
Today’s animal food insecurity, plant food nor secure. As early as age 80 in the last century, the use of chemical fertilizers has begun to Bama, which makes crops resistant to pests and diseases declined. After 90 years, the use of pesticides gradually began to increase. As the so-called “bio-accumulation effect”, when the animals and people eat it contains the pesticide plant, the body of toxins will accumulate exponentially.
In the meantime, the city’s junk food, junk drinks and daily chemical products began to enter the Bama. I live in a small shop, man of the house and sometimes accompanied by foreign guests to drink beer, and invited me to drink. Supermarkets, fast food shops and pharmacies have already appeared in Bama county, are spread to the towns and villages along the highway.
Not only the food starts to become unsafe living environment began to deteriorate. In the past, Bama centenarians are living in wooden tile house, ventilation is good, not hot, no pollution. Today, people began to use steel and concrete and glass to build a new house, and start using decoration materials, ventilation is poor, pollution increased. Since the new house, hot, people began to use electric fans or air conditioning. Air-conditioning will produce noise and electromagnetic radiation, most will be the release of fluoride into the air and the atmosphere.
As the national highway, provincial, county and township highways of the shop built the motor vehicle Bama more and more. Since 1991 by the International Natural Medicine will be recognized as the world’s longevity, in particular, has been awarded a certificate in 2003, Bama started to develop tourism and food processing industries, everywhere Investment keep roads and laying lines, Gailou, plant . Today, telephone and broadband Internet access in many towns and villages have been popular in Bama. I don on the last disk in Pakistan several networks, its speed, and Beijing is no different. Village, the original purity and tranquility has begun to be broken, chemical toxins, electromagnetic radiation and money to fashion has begun to enter people’s everyday lives.
Chemical fertilizers, pesticides, feed, veterinary drugs, medicine, factories, vehicle exhaust, Japan-based disinfectants, water supplies and increasing pollution of the world’s longevity is beginning to air, water and soil. Bama county side have a river, called “Bama River.” Ms. Mok guide who lives in town told me that in her small, Bama River water is clear, and she often swim inside, and now the water becomes turbid. County, part of the population began to drink sterilized tap water, which exudes the flavor of bleaching powder. Town surrounded by chemical plants, mineral powder factory, health care wineries and tea oil processing plant, they are to discharge the waste water, sludge and exhaust.
Accompanied yes, Bama 80 from the last century, began ill, to the 90′s there hyperostosis, arthritis, gastric ulcer, cholecystitis and cancer and other diseases of modern civilization. Cancer is essentially a chemical disease, a study found that no one in the past Bama suffers from cancer.
If this goes on, coupled with population movements caused by community-based cultural and family structure of the transformation, I estimate that about twenty to thirty years the phenomenon of longevity in Bama will cease to exist, at least not continue to increase the proportion of centenarians .
