Why don't most men in African red mud tribes live to be 15 years old?
Nowadays, with the development of economy and the improvement of people's living standards, people pay more and more attention to their lifestyle and health preservation. Therefore, more and more people can live to be 100 years old, but in the red mud tribe in Africa, most men can't live to be 15 years old. Why is this happening? The main reasons are as follows. Reason one: consanguineous marriage leads to male unhealthy body. Red mud tribe is a traditional tribe in Europe, and its economy is very backward. The people there are very poor, so basically no women want to marry there. Therefore, people in the Red Mud Tribe are generally married by close relatives. As we all know, consanguineous marriage will lead to the exposure of some recessive genetic diseases. Children born generally have diseases and poor physical fitness. Some men will also have mental retardation and congenital malformation. In addition, the African red mud tribes are backward in economy and the medical level can't keep up. Many men will die at the age of fifteen. Reason 2: Red mud is harmful to people's health. People with red mud in Africa have a habit of coating their bodies with red mud, which locals say is to prevent mosquito bites. These red mud may accompany them all their lives, and with the serious shortage of local water resources, people of the red mud tribe may never take a bath. In the long run, they will have a lot of bacteria, parasites and so on. Philosophy is very harmful to their health and greatly shortens their life span. Reason 3: Polygamy increases the probability of illness. There is a custom in the African red mud tribe that a man can have many wives, and each woman can also give birth to children for men other than her husband, which will easily increase the probability of diseases, such as AIDS. Men are riddled with diseases, coupled with a large labor force and poor nutritional conditions, many men can only live to be fifteen years old. Now the African red mud tribe has become a tourist destination. Would you like to go there to learn about the life of the red mud tribe people?
