Low IQ And Bad Health In Africans by JeanMacqou(m): 6:18am On Apr 28, 2012
Differences in intlleigence acroos different races are genetic. People of sub-Saharan have smaller brain sizes at birth and lower intelligence. http://www.news-medical.net/news/2005/04/26/9530.aspx That is why black people tend to score very poorly on the backwards memory span test; which is a test that shows one's actual memory ability because you cannot study for the test.

Having a lower IQ increases the risk of ill health, and it shortens life spans. One of the ailments that are increased by low iq is heart disease. http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/02/10/low-i-q-predicts-heart-disease/ The average life expectancy in Nigeria is 49, according to GapMinder.org


As people moved out of Africa, they evolved to have higher IQs, because survival in many other parts of the world required the ability of good planning. People in tropical climates also tend to have low IQ scores, such as Native Mexican Americans. The Vietnamese have lower IQ scores than Northern Asians.

The people with the lowest IQ in the world are the Khoisan people. They are the first modern humans that are still alive to day. Their average IQ is 54, which is in the mental retardation range.
