Life expectancy at birth is also a measure of overall quality of life in a country and summarizes the mortality at all ages. It can also be thought of as indicating the potential return on investment in human capital and is necessary for the calculation of various actuarial measures.

The average life span once given as a row number, should be broken down by quarter. What percentage of the population under 15 make it to the next stage. The mortality of 15 to 30 often reflects the wars that country experience. the stage between 30 years old to 60 years old can reflect the presence of serious deadly illnesses such as cancer and other incurable deseases. The phase over 60 will show a very different ranking. those results should evidence the difference between wealthy and sick elderlies. Developped countries with sophisticated health care systems, can maintain sick old people for years in nursing homes. Creating a semi zombie population in vegetative state. Tom 15th December 2010 Swaziland is 31.99 So if you are 29, you have less than 3 years left to live! Lolo 10th September 2010 It would have a greater credibility in my opinion, if it wasn't the CIA the one to measure this, any educated and well informed person knows Cubans for instance enjoy a higher life expectancy than that of the US population.

Muyinda Bruhan 4th September 2009 Every time around 200,000 Children aged less than 4 years kick the bucket in the Pearl of AAfrica,Uganda.

To m 29th July 2009 I think these statistics are a credit to the people of canada and their ongooing influence in the econonomic and social landscape of their great nation. Andrew in Ireland 14th July 2009 I have often wondered about life expectancy figures and how their values don't distinguish between high infant mortality, and deaths in later life. In other words, if you live in a country with a life expectancy of 65 years, or a country with one of 80 years, once you have made it past twenty (say) presumably the figures come much closer together. Is there an accepted measure of life expectancy that reflects the actual age of mortality of the people? just curious! imp 7th May 2009 Of course organic food, tofu and seafood is not helping. It's just a try to make business on low quality and highly priced food. Tofu companies want you to think it's more healthy than standard beacon, egg, fruits, cornflakes etc. But if you like seafood or anything, well, it won't hurt you. christina 6th May 2009 I've heard that eating organic food, tofu and seafood help to prolong life. Is it true? Hakan , Turkey 28th October 2005 My both side grantparentts are all alive and they are all over 75 years old. (75,75,76,76). And two of them look very healthy and it looks like they will live another 10 years, hopefully. The other two has health problems and looks like they will live maybe 2-3 more years. Now, how come average of Turkey is 71.8? Some deviation from the statistics here? austin 10th October 2005 Where does the Wisconsin River rank in lenth and size with other rivers austin 10th October 2005 Where does the Wisconsin River rank in lenth and size with other rivers sic 4th July 2005 http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0107386.html life expentancy for Canada is actually 80.2 Canada should be moved up to 6th place Edria Murray Staff Editor 26th May 2005 In response to Edgeworth: Life expectency has increased dramatically over the last two centuries. These gains were mostly due to the eradication and control of infectious diseases, improvement in agriculture resulting in better nutrition and reduction in childhood and infant mortality. In all developed countries today, men have a lower life expectancy at birth than women by an average of 6 years. The data reconstructed from the oldest records for England and Wales show that from the early 17th to the 20th century male and female life expectency differed little with discrepancies of less than two years (sometimes males had an advantage and sometimes females). Even today in the worlds least developed countries, the discrepancy is small. The increase in female life expectancy is largely due to impoved maternal care resulting in lower levels of maternal mortality. Some countries (in particular those in the middle east) do have significantly more males over 65 years than females. Ian Graham Staff Editor 8th April 2005 A Mediterranean diet prolongs life, according to a study published in the British Medical Journal. Researchers studied the diet of more than 75,000 Europeans 60 and older in nine countries - Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden and Britain. Those who ate plenty of fruits, vegetables, legumes, grains, fish and olive oil showed a longer life expectancy. The link was most pronounced in Greece and Spain, countries that follow a true Mediterranean diet. Precisely how long a Mediterranean diet extends lifespan depends on a person's age. A 60-year-old man who sticks to the diet can expect to live a year longer that someone of a similar age eating differently, according to researchers, while younger people could expect a bigger benefit. The Mediterranean diet is rich in antioxidants that neutralize cell damage from free radicals and are thought to help fight cancer and heart disease. Edria Murray Staff Editor 4th April 2005 In response to Gant Hugh: Currently, the average global life expectancy for all people is 63 years. There is a gender discrepancy with males living an average of 61 years and females an average of 65 years. In developing nations, the gender discrepancy is smaller due largely to the risks of childbirth. In developed nations, the gender discrepancy is larger. In the United Arab Emirates, the average life expectancy is 74.75 years (72.28 years for males and 77.35 years for females.) This information is available if you select 'view all countries'. Ian Graham Staff Editor 3rd March 2005 Average life expectancy in the U.S.A. continues to rise. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported that average life expectancy in the United States rose to a record-high 77.6 years in 2003, up from 77.3 the previous year. The improvement was attributed to drops in eight of the 15 leading causes of death. Death rates for the three biggest killers – heart disease, cancer and strokes – dropped between 2.2 and 4.6 percent. There were 2,443,930 deaths in 2003. The overall death rate, adjusted for changes in age distribution of the population, declined 1.7 percent from 2002. Average life expectancy is significantly affected by gender and race. The average life expectancy for a woman in 2003 was 80.1 years, while a man’s average life expectancy was 74.8. On average, black women live 4.4 years less than white women. A black man’s average life expectancy is 6.2 years less than a white man’s. Edria Murray Staff editor 2nd March 2005 Life expectancy at birth is one of indicators of the United Nations href=/graph/eco_hum_dev_ind&int=-1>human development index. Life expectancy at birth is the average lifespan for people born in that country. Life expectancy is typically lower in developing nations due to the high rate of href=http://www.nationmaster.com/graph/hea_inf_m or_rat>infant mortality in those countries. For example in Angola, almost 60% of people will live to be over 40 and about 35% will reach 65 years. However 19.2% of children die in their first year, which results in a low average life expectancy of 36.96 years. For a different perspective on life expectancy see also the href=/graph/hea_pro_of_not_rea_40>probability of not reaching 40 years and the probability of reaching age 65 ( href=/graph/hea_pro_of_rea_65_mal>male and href=/graph/hea_pro_of_rea_65_fem&int=-1>female) There are 48 more (non-authoritative) comments on this page
