There has got to be some research group out there looking into this sort of phenomenon - people who take great care of themselves yet have lots of medical issues and on the other end of spectrum people who do little in the way of living healthily yet live to a very long age devoid of ailments. We've all seen this anecdotally, at least.

Do you think stress levels are a factor that typically go unstudied that play a part in these things?

Gut-brain connection? Just good genes?

The way we're all bombarded with all kinds of health-centric information of varying integrity these days one would think someone is studying this in a massive way with very large trials across varied populations.

On day its TMAO[1] in red meat the next day its something else. Surely someones studying all of this as a whole, right?

I remember when someone wanted to study Ozzy Osborne as an example of someone who abused themselves but is pretty healthy (https://abcnews.go.com/Health/Wellness/genetic-mutations-ozz...)

So I'd like to think someone is looking at the things you mention. Someone should study my wife's grandparents, BBQ and 7&7s are their way of life and they're as spry as can be
