Abstract in brief

  • This study found that Adventists, especially Black Adventists, have significantly lower rates of all-cause mortality and cancer incidence compared to the general US population, even after accounting for factors like age, sex, race, smoking, and education.
  • The research suggests that lifestyle choices, possibly including vegetarian diets prevalent among Adventists, may contribute to their longer life spans and reduced cancer risks, with Black Adventists showing particularly notable health benefits.
  • Overall, the findings highlight potential links between healthier lifestyles and reduced risks of mortality and cancer, indicating that lifestyle and diet could play a crucial role in preventing these health issues across different racial groups.

キリスト教系宗教組織”セブンスデー・アドベンチスト教会”のひとは早期死亡率や癌の発生率が低くなると #CANCER にて報じられました。同教会では、禁煙、植物ベースの食事、定期的な運動や体重コントロールなども推奨しており、生活習慣への影響が考えられるようです。 https://t.co/L9bEyTRBRT

@skepticalraptor "I have written before, there are very few things that you can do to reduce your cancer risks, but the HPV vaccine is one of them." The ignorance?! Diet and lifestyle alone can drastically do so. Just look to the only blue zone in NA: https://t.co/06lcOK1gD8 https://t.co/HErMuf1n8I

@SteveDa39872898 The Adventist 2 study is huge, well known, and there are tons of respected papers about it. That chart was from several scientific talks, but the data from that study is in many publications. https://t.co/eBZhxiM8Ks

@fleroy1974 @DimitriRadoux @SBakerMD @BelindaFettke Can you be specific? Is it that so racially diverse a group (>30% black) w/ 40% of their members in high mortality southern states have such extraordinary longevity? I would never have believed that either unless the data were really compelling. https://t.co/eBZhxiM8Ks

@live_intheflesh @Plant_proof https://t.co/5WpyVWbDzv Why would you think that? Results have reflected they have lower mortality compared to a matched CA population and vegetarians have significantly lower ACM in the AHS2 analysis...but their life expectancy is supposedly the same?
