Travel around the world with author Dan Buettner to discover five unique communities where people live extraordinarily long and vibrant lives.

The primary documentary series featuring Dan Buettner and the Blue Zones is titled Live to 100: Secrets of the Blue Zones, which premiered on Netflix on August 30, 2023.

This four-part docuseries follows Buettner as he revisits the five original Blue Zones - Okinawa, Japan; Sardinia, Italy; Ikaria, Greece; Nicoya, Costa Rica; and Loma Linda, California, USA - to investigate the diets and lifestyles of their longest-lived residents.

Watch: Live to 100: Secrets of the Blue Zones | Official Trailer | Netflix. YouTube video, 1:37 min. Published by Netflix, Aug 16, 2023.

Dan Buettner, a National Geographic fellow and best-selling author, has spent the past 13 years studying the world's so-called Blue Zones, places where people live remarkably long lives and face much lower rates of Alzheimer's.

At the Aspen Ideas Festival in 2016, Buettner gave a talk on the eating habits of Blue Zone communities. "The cornerstone of every longevity diet in the world is --- anybody want to take a guess?" he asked. One person suggested yogurt. Water, another said.

"No, it's beans," Buettner said. "No matter where you go in the world, people living a long time, they're eating about a cup of beans a day. It probably yields them an extra four years of life expectancy. Every 2 extra ounces of beans you add to your diet, you lower your mortality rate about 9 percent."

Come watch this Documentary and learn how to live to 100. Refreshments are provided. Please sign-up so we can prepare.
