shouldn’t we have extended the life expectancy to at least 90-100 years with all the advancements we have in medicine now?

This always brings out the haters, but it’s true.
Advances in medical science have been amazing in the past 50 years, but in that same time our diet has gone to shit.
Meanwhile, people who eat a mostly vegan, whole-food diet are *regularly living into their nineties and beyond*.
Quit eating ultra-processed food (anything in a bag or box or can), especially if it has ingredients you can’t find in a normal household kitchen. Also cut back on meat to the way most people ate before WW2 — meat was typically a seasoning or a garnish, not a main course. That was Sunday dinner. Other than that, meat consumption was sparse.
