The average life expectancy of the Japanese is one of the highest in the world - more than 80 years. Despite the crazy rhythm of life in Japanese cities, which inevitably accompanies a booming economic upsurge, the quality and quantity of life in the country of the rising sun are constantly growing.
The basis of longevity is a system that includes a balanced diet, physical activity, the ability to relax and enjoy life, good ecology. Japanese eat a large amount of rice, and a significant part of the diet is uncleaned rice containing the maximum amount of nutrients. In second place on the Japanese menu is soy and its derivatives (soy sauce, miso soup, tofu bean curd, small semi-fermented natto soy). Soy is a complete source of protein and digestive enzymes. A mandatory part of the Japanese "diet" are also seafood, seaweed, seasonal vegetables and green tea. The Japanese are very sensitive to the cultivation and use of tea. On average, a person drinks 1-1.5 liters of this healthy drink per day. Japanese eat much less meat than Europeans and prefer pork. Due to such a diet, overweight people are very rare among the country's inhabitants. The industriousness of this nation and the competent policy of the country's leadership have led to incredible economic growth, which, accordingly, has led to an increase in real incomes of the population. The economic factor also added years to life expectancy, as it helped people feel joy, eased their daily work and freed up time to relax and enjoy life. Moreover, the Japanese prefer healthy pleasures: physical activity, visiting health centers, walking in the many beautiful parks or wildlife and, of course, shopping. Actively moving forward technological progress and its new products stimulate the continuous development of intelligence, even for those who are only a user. And this also serves to increase life expectancy. The Japanese are very careful about the environment and, despite the highest activity of industry, the environment in the country is practically not polluted. This was made possible thanks to a set of legislative measures that have been adopted and are strictly enforced from the 70s of the last century. Therefore, the atmosphere, water, agriculture - all supply the population with quality living resources. The field of pharmacology and health makes a significant contribution to longevity. The country is constantly searching and developing new medicines, useful biological food additives. And medical facilities are equipped with the latest equipment and staffed by qualified personnel.
