Good study with useful insights. I think it helps confirm what is obvious if you review the inverse findings that obese people don’t live long, that regular and heavy drinkers get cancer and dementia at a scary rate, and that body movement and exercise are not just about a healthy body but are important to you brain.
The problem is that the Standard American Diet is actually harmful and costs our society tons of expensive later in life healthcare costs. Processed food which does not mold and go bad is NOT FOOD.

Reply to U.S. GDP rose 2.9% in the fourth quarter, more than expected even as recession fears loom by Intrepid-Astronaut41
For me, how we calculate GDP is so out of date that it is meaningless.
Not only is GDP an odd set of factors, GDP is also missing a ton of other valuations which I see as better reflecting ‘production.’
Our economic analysis is so out of date that it is pointless to even read them.
