Another startling study

Here is another one of those studies that you really wonder who funded it.

In a recent edition of the Journal of the American Medical Association they came up with the following startling conclusions that Men tend to live longer if:

• 
  During their middle-years (average age: 54) they avoid certain unhealthy behaviors
  such as “smoking,
  being overweight,
  excessive drinking
  and hypertension”
  while attempting to remain “physically robust in midlife.

One writer in Modern Healthcare stated that this came from their "Department of Obvious Conclusions" and “This is consistent with theories of aging that suggest that better-built organisms last longer.”
