New study finds older meat eaters were more likely to reach 100.
A recent study of more than 5,000 Chinese adults over the age of 80 found an unexpected result: those who regularly ate meat were more likely to reach the age of 100 than those who did not.
At first glance, this seems to conflict with decades of research showing health benefits of plant-based diets. Vegetarian and mostly plant-based eating patterns are linked with lower risks of heart disease, diabetes, and obesity. However, this new research highlights an important nuance often missed in nutritional discussions: the bodyโs dietary needs change with age.
The study tracked participants for around 20 years and observed that non-meat eaters were less likely to become centenarians, but this effect appeared primarily in individuals who were underweight. Among participants with a healthy weight, there was no significant difference in longevity between meat eaters and non-meat eaters.
In older adulthood, appetite generally decreases, energy requirements decline, and the risk of losing muscle and bone mass rises. At this stage, preventing frailty and malnutrition can be more important than long-term disease prevention.
Animal-derived foods such as meat, fish, eggs, and dairy provide concentrated protein and nutrients like vitamin B12, calcium, and vitamin D that are harder to obtain from plant sources without careful planning or supplementation, particularly for people with lower appetites.
The takeaway isnโt that plant-based diets are harmful. Rather, it suggests that optimal dietary guidance may differ by life stage: a diet that supports health at 40 might need adjustment by 90. For many older adults, maintaining strength, healthy body weight, and nutrient intake becomes a priority.
