They are called blue zones - places in the world where people live
longer and healthier than anywhere else on earth. Several of these
blue zones exist, and in each of these places people living to 90 or
even 100 years is common. And they aren’t just living long either -
these people are living healthy - without medication or disability.

So Its Just Lifestyle Then?
Is it really that simple that the secret to longevity and healthy is
nothing more than lifestyle? No magic pill is needed? No advanced
machinery is needed? The answer is yes!
Living long and healthy is not mysterious. It is not hard to
understand. It is a choice. And sadly most people are choosing
wrong.
Living long and healthy like people in the blue zones is not achieved
through shortcuts or quick fixes. You can’t workout hard on Sunday
and then sit on your butt Monday through Saturday. You can’t say you
are eating healthy just because you stick a bunch of “healthy”
vegetables on top of that “unhealthy” greasy pizza. You can’t repent
spiritually one day and expect to erase the damage of decades of
stressful decisions and anger.
