Many doctors recommend a Mediterranean diet and never mention a Japanese diet.
Japanese live longer. So why is a Mediterranean diet recommended and not the Japanese?.
In this video, we go over several studies indicating the Japanese diet may be more healthy for people than they realize.
However, I think the video raises more questions than answers them. There are some studies indicating that diet and exercise may not be as important as being in touch with our culture and maintaining our way of life that has sustained us for generations.
Having a good diet and exercise regimen is critical but so often we overlook the necessary social life support systems of family and friends and community and sense of place.
Having said all that I am still actively trying to incorporate many Japanese food and practices into my diet along with the Mediterranean ones that I can afford and access.
This was a very interesting topic and I am anxious to hear what you viewers think about diet and exercise and how important the sense of belonging to a society or culture and family is in your long-term health.

Why do the Japanese have the highest life expectancy in the world?
