Pearls of Wisdom
Doug Winfrey and Dr. Wallach discuss a news article regarding a study from the University of Washington on life expectancy. Although as a whole in the U.S. life expectancies have been on the rise in recent decades. Some counties have much lower life expectancies by as much as 20 years compared to the highest counties. Oglala Lakota County, South Dakota the life expectancy is only 66.8. While Summit County, Colorado the life expectancy is 86.8 years. Researchers attributing these disparities mostly to risk factors such as obesity, lack of exercise, smoking, hypertension and diabetes. Other factors such as poverty, low income, education, unemployment, race and lack of access to quality health care.
