After lecture last Wednesday I was wondering what group besides Mormon are healthiest. According to one gallup poll Jewish and Muslim were the other top groups that were healthiest. These groups have certain guidelines for foods they should and shouldn't eat. The avoidance of certain foods eliminates some of the junk food that are so bad for one's health. Health also ties into how religious one is, or how devout they are in their religion. A gallup poll broke down the health of religions based on how religious the people were, the more religious, the more healthier one tended to be. Even broken further down into different aspects of health, the more religious one is the better they scored in all aspects of health.
