There is no such thing as an ancient Muslim since Islam comes into existence in the Medieval era. When compared to contemporaneous Europeans, Muslims were relatively healthy, having preserved the Greek works of physicians like Galen. Additionally, Muslims made several advancements in medicine during the Caliphate period. However, health across the world was abysmal relative to today's standards with few people living beyond 45 years of age and many people succumbing to infections and diseases that are easily treatable today.
