I'd be wary of correlating the increased incidence of late onset maladies with anything but people living longer.
Sure those all have causes to be discovered but all correlate with longer lifespans and better overall health and if we follow that the obvious solution would be getting back to paleolithic life and an average life expectancy of 30 years. Sure you won't get alzhaimer that way.
- JamesBarney 10y agoBe careful with average lifespans. The majority of our change in average life expectancy has been from a reduction in infant mortality rates not from increases in lifespan
- LoSboccacc 10y agoModa was still around 60ish 70ish, while now it's 80ish 90ish http://nfs.unipv.it/nfs/minf/dispense/patgen/lectures/files/images/modal_ages.jpg http://nfs.unipv.it/nfs/minf/dispense/patgen/lectures/files/... and 60ish is when old age maladies really starts kicking in, plus at those times you just died of oldness, whatever the actual cause was.
