Other than West Virginia, you just listed the blackest states.
Lots of rappers, the most dangerous profession.

You don’t get a stroke from being “healthy as an ox”

I'm sure it's just a coincidence that Louisiana has a 13% higher cancer rate than the national average.

Louisiana has one of the highest cancer incidence rates in the nation. With a rate of roughly 514.2 new cases per 100,000 residents, the state's cancer diagnosis rate is about 13% higher than the national average (455 per 100,000).The elevated risk is especially pronounced in the heavily industrialized corridor between Baton Rouge and New Orleans, frequently referred to as "Cancer Alley". In these areas, the localized risk from toxic air pollutants is significantly elevated.

Don’t do heroine
Have a mother & father in your life
Educate yourself on nutrition, lifestyle, health & fitness
Don’t smoke and drink in moderation.
Healthcare
Listen to CCR and watch fish swim on weekends.
You’ll be fine.

People use life expectancy numbers as if they accurately reflect the general population. A low life expectancy for your state basically is just a tell of how many people if your state are fat, smoke or are in a gang.

...and being a fat alcoholic in Louisiana means you're even more likely to get sick.

look at the poverty rates in those state..... correlation????
Yes. There are many studies that show poor people, and black people regardless of income, forgo preventative care. This is exactly why poor people and black people have lower life expectancies.
Black women also forgo prenatal care. That one I really don’t understand.

Dad turns 82 in a couple weeks. He is in great shape. His dad lived to 84. Mom died at 76. They all beat the stats.

Poor people make bad choices. Louisiana is poor.
