Every drop of butter we consume reduces our lifespan: What are some alternatives we can use

Sry I meant people who DIED in late 19th/early 20th century. Obviously someone dying in 90s or 2000s would have enjoyed the benefits of modern medicine. That's about as recently as one could have died.
Well that is actually difficult for an entirely different reason, I mean we were under the rule of British and not many Indians were considered famous rather notorious at least by the people who maintained records, i.e. the Britishers, and they really didn't give a crap about our ages as to them we were all slaves. So the record keeping was not the most impeccable and we certainly had the odds stacked against us.

Also I would like to say that modern medicine didn't have a significant impact in life expectancy until the 1950s. So the people I mentioned in the earlier list who died before 1950 didn't actually get the benifits modern medicine. I still managed to find 2 people who fit your criteria:
  1. Dadabhai Naoroji (1825-1917) died aged 91. He also known as the "Grand Old Man of India" and "Unofficial Ambassador of India", was an Indian Independence activist, political leader, merchant, scholar and writer. He was one of the founding members of the Indian National Congress and served as its 2nd, 9th, and 22nd President from 1886 to 1887, 1893 to 1894 and 1906 to 1907.
  2. Dinsha Edulji Wacha (1844-1936) was one of the founding members of the Indian National Congress. Wacha was also the president of the Congress in 1901.
 
Use ghee. Workout or jog daily.
It is a misconception that ghee is better than butter. It is a slightly better option for cooking but not for consumption and contains more calories, fat than butter. Actually shouldn't be using butter for cooking anyway.

This is the best advice for anyone, anywhere of all time, haha.

If we ever give up on using fats in cooking, we'll finally evolve beyond our endomorph silhouettes.

So probably never.
Even 20 minutes of jogging daily and working out 2 days a week is enough. Also incorporate 5-15 minutes of meditation for mental peace.

Everyone knows butter and ghee are both products made entirely of fat and eating fat in large quantity for long periods of time will have side effects and I'm not talking about becoming fat here (although that has become a big certain for a single guy like me lately lol). What matters is consumption in moderation and regular workout.
Poor stuff but it is what it is.

Cancer is found even in Egyptian mummies from 4000 years ago. Net effect of both things is that people live longer healthier lives than every before.
Percentage of cases and age matters. Now a days, youngsters are getting cancers more than expected and total percentages are higher. This is also as per statistical studies, denying this is not going to help.
