  1. Men smoke and consume too much alcohol. They are the ones ending up with lung and stomach cancers.

  2. No Ding Dongs for you right Kenzo.  Ha ha ha.
    16
  3. Kids do instead of sodas. Actually Swiss women live longer than Japanese women and their diet is based upon dairy.
    15
  4. Even the jails serve healthy food.

  5. Jess. Sorry that is not true and Japanese are 1/3 of the U.S. They also are 1/2 at diabetes. Please check your data before commenting.

  6. Gonz I first went to Mexico about 54 years ago and met my future wife. She was slim and trim. Not one of her friends or family were overweight. Cokes only at a dance on the weekends. Snacks were green mangoes with chili. You could also climb the tree for guayabas. Lots of soups Bean soup or chicken. Everyone walked everywhere My wife at 5 feet tall weighed 107 lbs. Then the American lifestyle arrived and destroyed Mexico. Today 70% are overweight and half are obese and 25% of the people have no. 2 diabetes. Drugs have not destroyed Mexico, McDonalds has.

  7. Much better than being fat.
    8
  8. They seem pretty healthy to me.

  9. It depends upon the man. Here in the U.S. you would not know since the muscle would be surrounded by fat.

  10. I see many Japanese men smoke but few women.
    5
  11. When you have a President whose diet is hamburgers and Coke.   Forget about it.
    4
  12. Actually it is the smoking by men.
    4
  13. Yes and Americans are concerned about having enough beer and crap for the game.
    4
  14. Have you read or heard of anyone getting sick from Fukushima? Also, your government just shipped loads of radioactive crap to the state of Nevada not far from Vegas.

  15. You realize that not all Japanese live in Hiroshima?  Japan has very excellent drinking water.

  16. Hm my son eats seaweed and he is not Japanese.

  17. Life expectancy is and sorry they live longer than we do.
    3
  18. Different type of junk food.
    3
  19.  @roachdogjrjr  It is statistics David. 70% of Americans are overweight and half of those are obese. That means 30% are not. All Americans have access to healthy food but but they do not eat it. Japanese men are not effeminate. Why because they are not strapped and killing people?

  20. Vaccines are required for any child entering school. Japanese do have dental problems from not using fluoride.  Chemtrails   You are nuts

  21. Aaron research before commenting.
    2
  22. Your comments do not match any statistics.
    2
  23. Hm never been on a date with a French girl have you?
    2
  24. Yes I like the way Sophia and Claudia were thin. I like that kind of thin.
    2
  25. Well I agree with you Nadia.   Sophia Loren says she has eaten pasta all her life and wow. The same with the greatest babe in history, Claudia Cardinale.  Some American men want the Kawaii of Japan but I will take Sophia or Claudia any time over any Kawaii.
    2
  26. Not any worse than Americans.
    2
  27. So that means people in the Netherlands have higher rates of heart problems? Why is that not true?
    2
  28. Ah so those Australian hotdogs are not to your liking.
    2
  29. Yes they are healthy.
    2
  30. That has nothing to do with the diet. Every race, ethnicity and religion is consuming McDonalds.
    1
  31. You are over doing it.
    1
  32. That has nothing to do with it.  Switzerland consumes much more than the U.S. and the people are almost as fit as the Japanese.   It is sugar and everything in the u.S sold has sugar.
    1
  33. Racheal They do not consume dairy since it has never been part of their diet.  Don't give out crap negative to Dairy. The Swiss live on dairy and are one of the most healthiest people on the planet.  Italians consume tons of cheese. Also, one of the most healthiest people on the planet.
    1
  34. Then why does Switzerland have a long life span?
    1
  35. Has anyone noticed the large numbers of E Coli cases.
    1
  36. I agree with you.  Mongolians, who are also East Asians, generally are not skinny.  According to my female Mongolian friend, all Mongolian men have big bellies,  ha ha ha.  Their diet in winter is heavy on meat.  They consume very little rice.  They have a larger frame than other East Asians.  That is why they have become the champs in Japanese Sumo.
    1
  37. Yes, Japan, the PI, China, Hong Kong, Macau, Vietnam, Thailand.  Two days only in Taiwan.  Not Korea.   Japan was the most impressive.
    1
  38. Japanese women refer to their men as herbivores.   Ha ha ha.  However, most Japanese women will not marry a foreigner.  Japanese hookers also generally will not service a foreigner.  .
    1
  39. Makeup my Mongolian friend says all Mongolian men have big bellies.  Ha ha ha.  Maybe that is why they are sumo kings of Japan.

  40. Actually there are international beauty standards and people looking for models travel the world based upon those standards. The one person considered to be the most beautiful person on the planet is a little girl in Africa.  Her face is perfectly symmetrical.
    1
  41. Actually sake means any alcoholic drink including beer.
    1
  42. They are fine but yours are working overtime to get rid of the sugar.
    1
  43. Male yes.  Female no. That is why women outlive males.
    1
  44. Where are you getting your data?   The U.S. has a 50% higher rate of getting cancer than Japan.
    1
  45. Tuzmo. That is not true.   The U.S. has a 50% higher cancer rate than Japan. Check your sources before commenting.
    1
  46. Because you can be fat and force the world to accept you and then pay for your diabetes and heart bills.
    1
  47. Men yes, women not much.
    1
  48. What is your source?
    1
  49. You and some others saying this but back it up with nothing.

  50. Japanese government is not going to allow fish to be sold with high Mercury content.
    1
  51. Statistics say no.
    1
  52. It is having no effect.
    1
  53. Sugar is an interesting subject in the U.S.   There is a quota on imported sugar which is done to protect the Cuban sugar growers in Florida.   Their political buddies take care of them.
    1
  54. Nice rationalization Scott.
    1
  55. Huh.  Read the statistics Scott.
    1
  56. No going to help except maybe go to the toilet.
    1
  57. Your mother did not drown all the dumb ones.
    1
  58. Japanese men suffer from smoking and excessive drinking.  They also suffer from gout.  Seafood except for perch cannot be consumed by anyone who has gout.  I think Japanese women likely live much longer than Japanese men.
    1
  59. The suicide rate for Japan is just a bit higher than the U.S. Korea is far higher.
    1
  60. First Green. Their diabetes rate is half of the U.S.  Suicide rate is almost the same as the U.S.. You are pulling our chain and did not check anything.
    1
  61. Genetics do not because as soon as they move to live in the U.S. and adopt American food, they become fat.
    1
  62. Well with so many fat people in the U.S. maybe we should have some of that social pressure.  I am on a strict diet and have lost weight.  I also walk everyday.  My daughter is 50 and runs 4.5 miles three times a week and walks an additional 2 miles.  She also watches her diet.   We are not starving.
    1
  63. There is no such ;pressure in the U.S. to be thin so everyone is fat.
    1
  64. You are picking that crap up from other American writers.
    1
  65. If you have a gluten intolerance then do not eat foot with it.  If not gluten content means nothing.

  69. A couple of inches does not mean much.
    1
  70. They do not  The highest is Sri Lanka.   Japan is a tiny bit above the U.S. Check statistics before commenting.
    1
  71. They do not. Sri Lanka and Finland do..  Japan's rate is almost the same as the U.S.
    1
  72. There is no evidence of that.  Brittle diabetes is a form of Diabetes 1 and would be genetic and not based upon their diet.  Their diabetes rate is 1/2 of the U.S.
    1
  73. Where did you check?
    1
  74. Mexicans do not eat those things anymore.  They are headed to Oxxo to buy a bunch of crap.
    1
  75. Yes many.  To find a lady who is trim you must try a gym.
    1
  76. So you past the 200 mark recently.

    1
  79. Out our way we drink home brew. Drink to 12 and piss til 2.

  80. This is why Japanese women outlive men. They still have to walk.
    1
  81.  @dlynn101  Japanese life span is longer. How many women smoke in Japan?
    1
  82. You said nothing about the Japanese women who live the longest.  Also, everyone had to walk everywhere.  That is the exercise.  Americans drive their car down a block to the mini mart.
    1
  83. Your comment is useless since you provide nothing.
    1
  84. They walk everywhere Mike.  Men live a shorter life than women since they smoke and drink more.
    1
  85. I know people at 60 who would not take the subway in the U.S>
    1
  86. It is a society based upon respect and honor.
    1
  87. Most fish are fine. There are a few not to eat and you can find a list. Stay away from the farm seafood. It is crap.
    1
  88. School foods in the uS are horrible.
    1
  89. You mean like Japanese food.
    1
  90. It is close to that of the U.S. High rates are Sri Lanka, S. Korea and Finland.
    1
  91. They do not. Their rate is a tiny bit above the uS. S. Korea and Finland do. The highest though is Sri Lanka.
    1
  92. Yes they are George.
    1
  93. Your source Andy?
    1
  94.  @JemimaDoesASMR  Most of us Americans are satisfied being fed crap and convinced it is food.
    1
  95. It is there and Japanese still have half the cancer rate.  If Japanese men cut out the smoking and the sauce, they would live as long as the women.
    1
  96. That is not true. Show us the statistics?
    1
  97. Japan sits on the ring of fire. Like every country on the Pacific Rim. There is no indication of any radiation leaks.
    1
  98. Of course they will but you will have to learn Japanese and adapt.
    1
  99. Huh? Did your mother disown you?
    1
  100. Hm have you considered moving out of the basement?
    1
  101. Sometimes Ellenor the truth can really suck.
    1
  102. They did but you past over them.  Americans consume way more calories and consume more sugar.
    1
  103. Trump just moved tons of radioactive waste to just north of vegas.  Now what were you saying?
    1
  104. He has only been to these two countries.
    1
  105. Hm how many of you socialize with your neighbors?
    1
  106. Actually it is likely Salt Lake.
    1
  107. Yes and stop this fat is ok idea.
    1
  108. In the U.S. no such thing.  We are satisfied with being fat pigs.
    1
  109. The biggest issue is with Japanese men.  They smoke too much.  Like Americans east of the Rockies they also drink too much beer and other forms of sake.  Their diet and having to walk helps them but not enough.
