About this item
Timed to the worldwide debut of his highly anticipated Netflix series, the creator of National Geographic's popular Blue Zones franchise brings readers a beautifully illustrated and informative guide to the Blue Zones - the places on Earth where people live the longest - including lessons learned, top longevity foods, and the "Power 9" behaviors to help you live to 100 - plus a surprising new Blue Zone.. National Geographic Explorer and best-selling author Dan Buettner has traveled the globe to uncover the best strategies for longevity, which he found in the Blue Zones: places around the world where higher percentages of people enjoy remarkably long, full lives. . In The Complete Blue Zones, Buettner returns to Sardinia, Italy; Ikaria, Greece; Okinawa, Japan; Costa Rica's Nicoya Peninsula; and Loma Linda, California to check in on the super-agers living in the blue zones and interprets the not-so-secret sauce of purpose, faith, community, down-time, natural movement, and plant-based eating that has powered as many as 10 additional years of healthy living in these regions.
