In view of the fact that hypercholesterolemia occurs in 31.4%, hypertension in 16.7% and the smoking rate is 58.8% in males (Table 8), risk factors are not low. Despite this, we Japanese preserve a leading position regarding longevity. I hope that I have provided some evidence supporting the proposal that apparently not only a low fat intake but other factors including genetic make up and a relatively high antioxidant intake contribute to our longevity.
鉴于高胆固醇血症的发生率为31.4%，高血压的发生率为16.7%，男性吸烟率为58.8%（表8），风险因素并不低。尽管如此，我们日本人在长寿方面仍保持领先地位。我希望我提供了一些证据来支持这样的提议，即显然不仅低脂肪摄入，而且包括基因构成和相对较高的抗氧化剂摄入在内的其他因素都对我们的长寿有贡献。
