3. On the other hand Japan have many Seniors

Well over the age of 100, this having to do with the areas they may live, for example like Hokkaido, where the air quality is better. Simple rice dishes and fish, as well as freshly grown veggies, and the fact that seniors are more active, lead to a healthy life style and longer lives.

I used to get mad when People would say that white Rice was bad for you, yet in Japan, where they don't use brown rice (except to feed their chickens) there are many seniors over the age of 100, so how is that they are still around, and still eating white rice?
