blue zones

A few years ago, I read a book called Blue Zones by Dan Buettner. It is about places in the world where an exceptional number of people live past age 100 and stay very active and happy. It is an intriguing idea, and Buettner visited those places and tried to find connections between the diets and lifestyles those people lived as keys to their longevity. Recently, I found a four-part documentary by Buettner on his Blue Zones work and his attempts to recreate the lifestyles in other locations. His search brings out many very interesting and inspiring characters that are portrayed in the episodes. The documentary is called Live to 100: Secrets of the Blue Zones and is showing on Netflix. Well worth watching.
