Summary
A scientific study comparing longevity between Amish men and the general US population found that Amish men live an average of five years longer than white men in Ohio. The research, based on data from the 1965 Ohio Amish directory and Social Security Administration life tables, also revealed that Amish farmers outlive Amish non-farmers. The study concludes that the exceptional longevity of Amish men is likely attributed to their high levels of physical activity.
