Really cool UM study on how many minutes each food adds or subtracts from your
life. Some very interesting results, some surprising, many not. For example:

The best "meal" you can eat, increasing your life by about 30 minutes: A peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
As far as individual foods: nuts and seeds are the best increasing your life between 12-30 minutes per serving; Seafood: most of it, between 2 and 10 minutes of life (some of it actually negative, some as much 50 minutes); fruits 5-15 minutes; grains/cereals 3-7 minutes.

The worst things: hot dogs/sausage sandwiches -32 to -42 minutes of life; cured meats -22 to -30 though sandwiches in general have a huge range, mostly between -2 and -10); burgers -10 to -18;

Anyway, each a bunch of nuts and pb&js instead of burgers, hot dog, and sandwiches with cured meats and this says you'll live a really long time.

Here's the study: https://www.nature.com/articles/s43016-021-00343-4.epdf?sharing_token=KK6gr_-3b5NDARKYIwXX_NRgN0jAjWel9jnR3ZoTv0M_JH_HZOIYshU13s2Xd2Y9TE21QHv8Bcct_cXn-TOmD1rn3UqTSHg8_XhT9-Bj8dcc7F_9PaZNaDFPPa9rgv9U-cQfo7a7ISVxY01_fCRNnhtvyFPbc4RZfNK6D_wrMYA%3D
