Will you live longer by eating cheese?

A Chinese study from Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine claims that people who eat cheese live longer because they are happier and therefore have better mental health.

Not only cheese but also fruit is said to prolong life, according to the Chinese study, because eating cheese or fruit makes you happy.

Watching TV and smoking are said to have a negative impact on the aging process, but so is the use of medication also have a negative impact. Wealth would also not affect longevity. All of these claims contradict previous research.

The scientific evidence for the above has not been confirmed by any other study and should therefore not simply be accepted as truth. You can certainly eat cheese, but don't expect it to make you live longer.
