Everyone seems to be trying to get the quick answer to longevity from this article. The message I took home is that there _is_ no quick answer. No-one really knows why these people live longer.

What they do know is that they lead a completely different kind of lifestyle from us. The whole community is relaxed and randomly happen to have a diet and exercise patterns which may contribute to longevity.

Unfortunately it seems that while we're living busy and stressful lifestyles this kind of longevity is out of reach for us.
