I had this link from the Ohio State school newpaper forwarded to me
https://news.osu.edu/one-thing-youll-find-in-the-obits-of-many-long-living-people/
>Religious affiliation linked to nearly 4-year longevity boost

>A new nationwide study of obituaries has found that people with religious affiliations lived nearly four years longer than those with no ties to religion.

>That four-year boost – found in an analysis of more than 1,000 obits from around the country – was calculated after taking into account the sex and marital status of those who died, two factors that have strong effects on lifespan.

Its an article about how religious ppl outlive atheists by 4 years, but theres no link to the original scientific publication by an Ohio State researcher in the article and I can't seem to find it anywhere else.
Has anyone here ever read the original article? If so, how good is the research? Does being religious really provide a roughly 5% longevity boost?
If it does then obviously why does it and how can that be exploited to further increase longevity?
