There's a large body of research that indicates smaller humans live longer. Examples include studies of Okinawans, Spaniards,Sardinian,Japanese in Hawaii, US veterans, basketball players, Harvard male graduates, and US government reports on the age-adjusted mortality of five different ethnic groups.In addition, US males average 9% taller than females and have a 9% shorter life expectancy. Various areas of study supporting the thesis that smaller humans live longer is given in: Evidence from eight different types of studies showing that smaller body size is related to greater longevity: JSRR 2(16): 2150-2160, 2014; article no. JSRR.2014.16.003
