Earliest evidence of Italians' genetic diversity dates back to end of last glacial period. Genetic peculiarities contribute to reducing, on the one hand, the risk of kidney inflammation and skin cancers, and, on the other hand, the risk of diabetes and obesity, favouring sometimes a longer lifespan
