A new study published in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health authored by researchers at the University College of London has found that the more vegetables (and, to a lesser extent, fresh fruit) you eat the better your chances of longevity.
As the popular press is reporting, Oyinlola Oyebode, the study's lead researcher, said in a prepared statement that "We all know that eating fruit and vegetables is healthy, but the size of the effect is staggering." The research established correlation, not causation, but the findings are consistent with already-established guidelines from worldwide governmental health agencies. If you want to live a long and healthy life, eat plenty of veggies.

"If you make a broccoli and beef teriyaki stir fry like I did, you don't have the stomach space for a double quarter pounder with supersize fries and corn syrup ketchup with a giant corn syrup soda followed by half a container of sugary ice cream with corn syrup topping sauce"
