Hunza is high in the Himalayan Mountains of Asia. There, many people over one hundred years of age are still in good physical health. Men of ninety are new fathers, and women of fifty still have babies. What are the reasons for this good health? Scientists believe that the people of Hunza have these benefits: (1) physical labor, usually in the fields or with animals; (2) a healthful environment with clean air and water; (3) a simple diet high in vitamins and nutrition but low in fat, sugar and chemicals. People in the Caucasus Mountains in Russia are also famous for their longevity. In this area, there are amazing examples of very long-lived people. Although birth records are not usually available, a woman called Tsurba probably lived until 160; a man called Shirali may have lived until age 168. His widow was 120 years old. In general, the people not only live a long life, but they also live well. They are almost never sick, and when they die, they have not only their own teeth but also a full head of hair, and good eyesight.
Experts found people in these regions eat more fruits and vegetables that contain no chemicals and consume fewer calories than people do in other parts of the world.
