Australian men live the longest — the reason why will make you jealous

澳大利亚男人寿命最长——这就是为什么会让你嫉妒的原因

Living in a land Down Under? If you’re a dude, you’ve got a nice, long life ahead.

住在澳大利亚?如果你是一个男人,你会有一个美好的,长寿的未来。

According to a recent study out of the Australian National University, Australian men are now living longer than guys in any other country, with an average life expectancy of 74.1. (That’s compared to 71.57 in the United States.)

根据澳大利亚国立大学最近的一项研究,澳大利亚男性的平均寿命为74.1岁,比其他任何国家的男性都要长。(美国的这一比例为71.57。)

“Australia winds up doing really well because, frankly, things have been really good here for a really good time,” study author and ANU lecturer Collin Payne tells The Post. His team examined the population histories of 15 countries with long life spans to understand and contextualize the data.

研究作者、澳大利亚国立大学讲师科林•佩恩在接受《华盛顿邮报》采访时表示:“坦白地说,澳大利亚的情况最终变得非常好,因为在一段非常美好的时间里,这里的一切都非常好。”他的团队研究了15个寿命较长的国家的人口历史,以了解这些数据,并将其纳入研究背景。

“In contrast to a lot of continental Europe, there weren’t one or two world wars fought on [Australian] soil,” says Payne, who is American and has a Ph.D. in demography from the University of Pennsylvania. “If there is a war going on, the infant mortality rate tends to be a bit higher. You are not getting proper nutritional intake during childhood, and those things can show up in terms of health later in life.”

佩恩是美国人,拥有宾夕法尼亚大学(University of Pennsylvania)的人口统计学博士学位。“如果发生战争,婴儿死亡率往往会高一点。你在童年时期没有得到适当的营养摄入,这些都会影响你以后的健康。”

Simply put, Australians have been enjoying the perks of relative stability. And that’s only boosted by their wholesome diets, sporty tendencies, laid-back attitudes — and love of beer.

简而言之,澳大利亚人一直享受着相对稳定带来的好处。而他们健康的饮食、运动的倾向、悠闲的态度以及对啤酒的热爱,更是推动了这一趋势。

“It’s a very stress-free lifestyle,” says Tim Sykes, the 35-year-old co-owner of Australian eatery Ruby’s Cafe in Nolita. “A majority of Australians live very close to the beach, so there’s an active lifestyle … If I go home and am jet-lagged, I go to the beach at 4 or 5 a.m., and it’s already half-full with people jogging.”

“这是一种非常轻松的生活方式,”35岁的蒂姆·赛克斯(Tim Sykes)说。“大多数澳大利亚人住得离海滩很近,所以他们有一种积极的生活方式……如果我回家后倒时差,我会在凌晨4点或5点去海滩,而那里已经有一半的人在慢跑了。”

Canberra, Australia-based Payne, who bikes to work every morning, can attest to Australian athleticism.

澳大利亚堪培拉的佩恩每天早上骑自行车上班,他可以证明澳大利亚人的运动能力。

“I regularly get dusted by people in their 70s who are riding mountain bikes or hiking,” says the researcher, who also nods to the country’s universal health care and generally high standard of living.

“我经常被骑山地车或徒步旅行的70多岁老人弄得满身灰尘。”这位研究人员说。

Then there’s the grub. Vegemite aside, Australian cuisine draws heavily from the produce section, not the junk-food aisle — which explains the explosion of Australian-style cafes in the health-conscious Big Apple.

然后是食物。抛开素食主义者不谈,澳大利亚是的菜品主要来自农产品区,而不是垃圾食品区——这就解释了为什么在注重健康的纽约,澳大利亚风格的咖啡馆激增。

“If you look at our dishes, not a lot has been done. Kale is shredded, tomato is lightly roasted. It’s colorful, and it’s more plants than protein,” says Sydney native Henry Roberts, who co-owns healthy Australian eatery Two Hands in Tribeca.

“你看我们的菜,做得不多。甘蓝切丝,西红柿轻烤。悉尼本地人亨利·罗伯茨(Henry Roberts)说:“它五颜六色,而且是植物而不是蛋白质。”他在特里贝卡与人合伙经营着一家健康的澳大利亚餐馆。

Down Under, Sykes adds, they start their days right with savory breakfasts — such as avocado toast and breakfast bowls with veggies, eggs and sauces — instead of sugary pastries and empty carbs.

在澳大利亚,赛克斯补充说,他们的一天从美味的早餐开始——比如鳄梨吐司和蔬菜、鸡蛋和酱汁的早餐碗——而不是甜点和空碳水化合物。

“Breakfast is such a big part of Australian culture … In America, it’s coffee and a bagel,” says Sykes. “Kids have to be taught about nutrition here in the US, but it’s ingrained from an early age in Australia.”

“早餐是澳大利亚文化的重要组成部分……在美国,早餐就是咖啡和百吉饼,”赛克斯说。“在美国,孩子们必须接受营养方面的教育,但在澳大利亚,这种观念从小就根深蒂固。”

But if you ask him, the real reasons Aussie guys live longest is their attitudes — specifically, their innate toughness.

但如果你问他,澳洲人活得最长的真正原因是他们的态度,特别是他们天生的坚强。
