Date: March 13, 2010 12:58AM Hi, I have seen on a raw food web site that some cultures live to be approx. 120- 130 years old and that 80 is not a normal life span. If this is accurante, does anyone know where I can find data about these cultures online?
Thanks Re: oldest living cultures

Where did you read this? All peoples that have non-industrialized lives with abundant unprocessed food and fresh water are long-lived. You might try Googling: the Hunza, the Vilcabambas, the Abkhazians, the Andorrans, and the Okinawans. Bear in mind, that many of these peoples have been incorporated into other larger cultural groups, so their longevity may be a matter of supposition or date back to the era before strict record keeping. Good luck. Re: oldest living cultures
