"I vårt moderne samfunn øker ofte blodtrykket med alderen, men det gjør det ikke hos naturfolk med en naturlig livsstil."

Does anyone have a less pejorative alternative to my dictionaries' consensus choice of "primitive people" for "naturfolk"? Yes, I know, the word "primitive" has no actual negative connotation from its Latin origin. But it has acquired that over the years for many people.

Some use "indigenous people" for this situation, including many who live a subsistence lifestyle and consider themselves members of indigenous populations. My problem with "indigenous" is that it doesn't necessarily mean the sort of lifestyle at issue here among "naturfolk". For example, the Celts could be said to be indigenous to Britain when the Romans arrived (even though the former were themselves invaders of Britain at one time.) But the Celts would not be described as "naturfolk" as I understand that term.

Maybe my answer is simply to use ". . . among people who live a subsistence lifestyle"?
