Thank you for posting this!

Typical of a medical industry. The moderator refers to a slide and uses his pointer, but he’s pointing at something that’s up in the sky so we cannot see even one of his slides. The medical industry is so out of touch with normal people.

The more money you have the healthier you can afford to eat snd cook, you also have more time to workout

why cant we see the slides

When he said, "middle-aged people like myself...versus older people," I lol'ed. My guy, Dr. Appel, you appear to be close to 60, if not older. Even assuming a life expectancy of 80, your life is likely 2/3 over.

I believe he's referring to the banding they do for studies like this, like how surveys will ask how old you are and present bands like "25-34", "35-44" etc

Why do videos like these holding true facts don't get >1M views? Do people like flattering lies?

[@RedPilled100]

People just like believing whatever they would like to believe even when presented with well presented verifiable facts and research. How hypocritical of the populace living in self denial while also trying to cope

[@jodlkopp7434]

How do you know this is the true facts? I am not doubting this necessarily but with all of the "facts" out there which are true?

[@edmondmuthee]

@@jodlkopp7434 just google. but you need to know how to search for that. The best quality data will come from meta analysis done on actual people and that's where guidelines come from.
