Hunza is a isolated valley at an altitude of nearly 2,500m above sea level, located in northern Pakistan.This is the habitat of the Hunza community, also known as Burusho, the tribe has the highest life expectancy in the world.
The most impressive point of the Hunza is that they have a high average life expectancy, healthy and lucid when they get old.Even some people here can live up to 120 years old.Especially according to Australian Associated Press, so far, despite having spent more than 900 years of history, this tribe has no one with cancer and rarely get sick.Therefore, experts have spent a lot of effort to conduct studies to find the "key" of this tribe's life.The results showed that the secret to help people here extend the life lies in the following 4 things:
1. Healthy diet
Accordingly, the majority of Hunza people are vegetarian.Their menu is mostly eating fresh fruits, vegetables such as potatoes, carrots, raw vegetables, radish, squash, apple, peach, apricot;Types of walnuts, almonds, oil essences;Main animal proteins such as milk, yogurt, cheese;Cereals, barley, millet, wheat, buckwheat powder ... They are grown organic, do not use chemical fertilizers so it is very safe for health.
Here, milk and cheese are an important source of animal protein.People rarely eat meat, they also do not consume processed foods.The meat is only for special occasions such as weddings or festivals and each person has a small, stewed meat.Meals are usually made fresh at the restaurant every day.
According to experts, restricting meat eating and not eating processed food is also one of the important things to help Hunza live more than people in other areas.Processed foods often contain high sugar, salt, fat and N additives that can increase the risk of obesity, hypertension and cancer.Meanwhile, preliminary studies have found that short -term vegetarian diet can create "rebuilding" the immune system, helping to reverse the growth of cancer cells.
Perhaps that is why for more than 900 years, no one in this tribe has cancer.This tribe is also considered one of the most healthy tribes in the world.
2. Regularly eat apricot
Dreams are extremely familiar foods for Hunzas, they often drink dried apricot juice for 2-4 months/year.It was the tradition passed down and this helped them have a good health, preventing many diseases, especially cancer.Studies show that a dream is high in B-17 vitamin, also known as Amygdalin-a substance with very effective anti-cancer properties.
3.
Hunza people are always healthy and dynamic even when they get old.They spent many hours in the long distances along the sloping mountain road every day.Besides, the work of grazing cows and sheep, making firewood or doing housework also helps their bodies to be mobilized, increasing the time of exposure to the sun.In addition, people here also cycle, skate and play a lot of sports every day.These activities help them train their bodies and have a good health.
4. Live happily
Hunza people are often much younger than their real age.This comes from the lives of people here not too pressure and stress.They are always happy, happy and have activities to help the community.There have been many studies that concluded that the optimistic spirit can help people live more and fight effectively.
