As the people in Hong Kong eat more red meat and fish, less vegetables, grains and fruits, the better their health becomes. Hong Kong achieved world's longest life expectancy in all three categories: both sexes, male and female (United Nations 2015), and world's highest IQ score (National IQs calculated and validated for 108 nations, Gerhard Meisenberg University of Ulster, Coleraine, Northern Ireland, UK. April 2010).
2015 UN Life Expectancy Data for Hong Kong:
Life Expectancy at birth (Both Sexes) 83.74 years, world 1st place!
Life Expectancy at birth (Male) 80.91 years, world 1st place!
Life Expectancy at birth (Female) 86.58 years, world 1st place!
World Average is 71.4 years.

National Geographic says:
Hong Kong's meat consumption increased drastically than any other nation's in these 50 years. As it has since 1980, a spurring point for the economy, Hong Kong consumes more meat per person—both calorically and in weight—than any other nation. Hong Kong’s diet has changed drastically in the last 50 years, with the average person eating more grams of meat per day than any other food group. The average caloric consumption per person has also increased by 26%.

As Hong Kong People Ate More Meat/Fish, Less Vegetables/Grains They Live Longer!
When Americans started to consume more vegetable oil instead of animal fat like butter and lard, and more carbohydrates and cut down red meat their health went bad. Even the 7th Day Adventist, the well known biggest vegetarian religion in the United States admits that their American members who eat the most fish have best health index among their members.
Americans per capita fish consumption hasn't increased much from past few decades, they need to start eating more fish and red meat, and less carbs and vegetable oil.
Despite air pollution is a serious problem in crowded Hong Kong, however, Hong Kong people enjoy the longest life expectancy and the highest national IQ estimate in the world. Their health index is one of the best in the world!
Hong Kong is the second-largest per capita consumer of seafood in Asia, and the seventh largest in the world.
In 2009, Each HK person ate 71.6kg per capita of seafood, the equivalent of about 250 mackerel. To put this in perspective, that is about 4.1 times higher than the global average (18.9 kg per capita; about 60 mackerel each per person).
This is not anything new, in the past decade Hong Kong people have been greatly increasing their consumption of seafood, red meat, poultry, dairy and eggs, all above world average but eat less in vegetables and grains, all below world average.
"Hong Kong health indices among world's best", reported by Government of the Hong Kong on 2003-01-28.
Compared to other countries, HK people eat the highest per capita amount of red meat and total meat (from all kinds of animal), their per capita consumption of produce, vegetable, fruit, grain, pulses and vegetable oil are lower than world average.
2015 UN Life Expectancy Data for Hong Kong:
Life Expectancy at birth (Both Sexes) 83.74 years, world 1st place!
Life Expectancy at birth (Male) 80.91 years, world 1st place!
Life Expectancy at birth (Female) 86.58 years, world 1st place!
World Average is 71.4 years.

Hong Kong: World Longest Life Expectancy, Highest Per Capita Meat Consumption
Let's see which country has the longest life expectancy:
The Chinese people in Hong Kong have highest per capita meat consumption in the world, they have world's longest life expectancy (see United Nations 2015 data), their health index is among the best in the world! Japan and South Korea have very high per capita fish and seafood consumption. Japanese consume the most eggs per capita in the world!

Hong Kong has world's longest life span and it has a high per capita pork consumption.

National Geographic says:
As it has since 1980, a spurring point for the economy, Hong Kong consumes more meat per person—both calorically and in weight—than any other nation. At 695 grams per day, people in Hong Kong eat 60% more meat than the meat-eaters in New Zealand.
Hong Kong’s diet has changed drastically in the last 50 years, with the average person eating more grams of meat per day than any other food group.
South Korea experienced a rapid shift in diets beginning in the 1970s. As more animal products and produce were added to the plate, the proportion of calories earned from grains dropped from 76% to 43%.

Japan consumes more seafood per person than all other types of meat combined.
HK people eat almost 40% more meat than Americans, often they eat meats such as Chinese BBQ pork, pork belly, pig feet, all these are high in fat. One thing HK people eat quite a lot are seafood and sea fish which are known to provide protection against diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, cancer and more.
Up until 1970's HK people had shorter life expectancy and poorer health index than Americans, back then HK people ate lesser amount of red meat than Americans. Year by year dietary statistics show as HK people ate more red meat and seafood the longer increase in their life expectancy and better health index, as Americans eat lesser red meat the slower increase in life expectancy and their health index gets worst.
In Okinawa, as Okinawan increased eating more pork in the period from 1950's to 1990's the longer increase in life expectancy, but as Okinawan slowed down increase of pork consumption their life expectancy also slowed down in increase.
Nagano, another prefecture in Japan, had less pork consumption than Okinawa before 1990's, but as Nagano increased pork consumption, its life expectancy also increased to the point that it's now Japan's national longest. Nagano replaced Okinawa in longest life expectancy. Nagano's health index is among the best nationally.
Most junk foods are made from all plant sources such as: sugar (from plant), palm oil (from plant), vegetable oil (from plant) wheat flour (from plant).
Sugar, vegetable oil and refined flour are all plant based, these are the most common main ingredients in junk foods. Palm oil is often listed as vegetable oil because it's from plants. Processed palm oil is very bad for health and so are sugar and refined flour. Most junk foods have too high sugar and oil contents, these two things are responsible for many health problems, these two things are NOT from animals, they are 100% from plants.

Japan consumes more seafood per person than all other types of meat combined.
HK people eat almost 40% more meat than Americans, often they eat meats such as Chinese BBQ pork, pork belly, pig feet, all these are high in fat. One thing HK people eat quite a lot are seafood and sea fish which are known to provide protection against diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, cancer and more.
Up until 1970's HK people had shorter life expectancy and poorer health index than Americans, back then HK people ate lesser amount of red meat than Americans. Year by year dietary statistics show as HK people ate more red meat and seafood the longer increase in their life expectancy and better health index, as Americans eat lesser red meat the slower increase in life expectancy and their health index gets worst.
In Okinawa, as Okinawan increased eating more pork in the period from 1950's to 1990's the longer increase in life expectancy, but as Okinawan slowed down increase of pork consumption their life expectancy also slowed down in increase.
Nagano, another prefecture in Japan, had less pork consumption than Okinawa before 1990's, but as Nagano increased pork consumption, its life expectancy also increased to the point that it's now Japan's national longest. Nagano replaced Okinawa in longest life expectancy. Nagano's health index is among the best nationally.
Most junk foods are made from all plant sources such as: sugar (from plant), palm oil (from plant), vegetable oil (from plant) wheat flour (from plant).
Sugar, vegetable oil and refined flour are all plant based, these are the most common main ingredients in junk foods. Palm oil is often listed as vegetable oil because it's from plants. Processed palm oil is very bad for health and so are sugar and refined flour. Most junk foods have too high sugar and oil contents, these two things are responsible for many health problems, these two things are NOT from animals, they are 100% from plants.
