"In the early 2000s, Dan Buettner collaborated with National Geographic to reverse-engineer a formula for longevity. He scoured the globe for years in pursuit of places where people live much longer than average, and the concept of blue zones came to fruition. To date, the expeditions unveiled Okinawa, Japan; Sardinia, Italy; Ikaria, Greece; Nicoya, Costa Rica; and Loma Linda, California, as blue zones with the highest rates of living centenarians" (Blue Zones).
Join us this week as we dive into the lifestyle elements featured in the series that are most conducive to longevity, the elements that are similar and different among the blue zones, and simple improvements that we can incorporate into our own lives!
