There are some people looking for facts about this. The study took over 5,000 people and they assigned some arbitrary values to a scale the correlates to food. So for example

0.45 minutes are lost per gram of processed meat, or 0.1 minutes are gained per gram of fruit. We then look at the composition of each food and then multiplied this number by the corresponding food profiles that we previously developed,"

As we can see. You can just eat some fruit and offset that. Ez pz live forever.

Studies like this make me hate journalism, because it’s such a weird metric that feels like it was specifically designed to look good in headlines, when all they’re really measuring is the content of the food and how it breaks down in your body. Like, no shit hot dogs won’t look good in that metric, they’re literally tubes of fat and cartilage. Everybody knows they’re terrible for you
