    Until they try gulab jamun, then they forget their diet.

    The same feelings about craft beer drinkers. Meanwhile, going on about coffee is obviously genius 😨

    Very mis leading.  Low life expectancy is almost always accompanied by very high infant mortality.  Throughout the ages their have been men and women that lived  to ripe old age, the trick was making it to adulthood.

    «Old age, height and nutrition:

    Common misconceptions about medieval England»

    «In medieval England, the statistical average life span from birth was between 20 and 25 years[1], yet a medieval Englishman of 30 years expected to live into his or her early 50s. Some students of history, aware of the statistical average life span, assume that medieval Englishmen considered 40 to be old. In fact, a medieval English adult most probably considered 50 years about the beginning of “old age”.»
