In the big cities, people live longer

Contrary to popular belief about the low life expectancy of the inhabitants of the cities, scientists noticed the opposite trend. The life expectancy of people in the big cities on the rise in recent years, although the ecological situation is no better. For example, in Portugal, the people in large industrial cities, they live an average of 10 years longer than people in the mountainous regions. The same trend was seen in the Russian capital. Moscow - one of the loudest and most polluted cities in the world, but life in the city has an average of 9 years of strong growth in recent years. It turns out that not only the case in the environment. According to experts, the environment, of course, depends on many things. Those who live in the vicinity of large industrial companies, often suffer from asthma, they have increased the risk of cancer and allergies. But for most people, according to WHO, the biggest threat - cardiovascular disease. Hardly a major role in their development, the city is the air. It turns out that life is strongly influenced by many other factors. First of all - the quality of care, higher salaries and comfortable living conditions. Here, of course, the advantages of a big city can be seen with the naked eye. The level of education plays an important role, as educated people, research shows, live longer illiterate. But the majority of graduates are often located in large cities. The fact that educated people know the factors to reduce a man's life: smoking, alcohol, lack of physical exercise, poor nutrition. Of course, these are just statistics. And she does not need to prove that in the province, "there is no life." Morality is something else: we do a lot for themselves, regardless of external circumstances, the ranks of long-living residents.
