00:00Most people avoid meat to stay healthy, but science now suggests eating meat every day
00:05could be key to living past 100. New research suggests meat might help some people reach 100
00:10years old. Scientists tracked health data from over 5,000 adults aged 80 plus, all without major
00:16chronic disease. Those who ate meat were more likely to become centenarians than people on
00:20mostly plant-based diets. The effect was strongest in underweight adults. Nearly 30% of meat eaters
00:26reached 100, compared to 24% of vegetarians. Why? Meat provides protein and nutrients that help
00:32maintain muscle and bone strength in frail seniors. Vegetables still matter. Balance matters more than
00:38extremes. Longevity isn't about cutting foods out. It's about eating what your body needs.
