  • Kyotango region is in the spotlight as a longevity hotspot in Japan. There are three times as many centenarians there as the national average. Kyotango Longevity Cohort Research has been conducted by Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine and the researchers discovered that the centenarians in Kyotango have a high amount of what they call longevity bacteria in their gut.

    Sachiaki Takamiya is a writer and the creator of Ikigai Diet and Ikigai Bio-Hacking. He has authored a range of books, with one of his better-known works being the spiritual adventure novel, Ten-jo-no-Symphony, published in Japanese by Kodansha in 2006. His contributions in English include The Ikigai Diet, and Ikigai Bio-Hacking.
    He embraces a sustainable lifestyle in a serene town in Shiga Prefecture, growing his own vegetables and crafting fermented foods. In 2018, he innovatively translated this lifestyle into a diet, thus birthing the Ikigai Diet. In 2022, he further enriched this diet, transforming it into a holistic health approach called Ikigai Bio-Hacking.
    Homemade natto has been a staple of his diet for nearly a decade, holding a central role in the Ikigai Diet. Embracing this passion for natto, he donned the moniker ‘Natto King’ in 2022 and began disseminating natto-related insights via his UA-cam channel, the Ikigai Diet.
    His health-focused lifestyle has certainly paid dividends. Despite being in his early 60s, he consistently receives clean bills of health.

    Aloha, I'm fourth generation Japanese living in Hawaii. I was sumotori size for all of my life until the world shutdown in 2020, with lots of medical issues at the age of 54 at 184.159 kg or 406 lbs living a very non-active life. During shutdown, I started eating traditional Japanese, Okinawan and Hawaiian foods from 400 years ago and my body changed. I focused on oysters, natto, kunbo, fish, ikura, pork, kimchee, sesame seed oil, coconut oil, macadamia nuts and lots of Hawaiian salt and my weight dropped, medical issues are gone, all of this change without western medical intervention. I have done three Honolulu Marathons, my loose skin is almost gone along with my white hair. I share my knowledge with my remaining third generation family saying Japan food technology from the past was far more advanced that any culture on the planet back then. I wish my family never left our food culture as I have learned that I'm not good with other people's foods as my body was inflamed since childhood and our family members died from cancer and diabetes complication. I now wear the same size pants as I wore when I was 8 years old with muscles everywhere!!! Mahalo 'e for your great informational channel as I hope it reaches Japan's descendants all around the world to heal them and show them way back to heath.

      @@smonster Thank you, I tried that and without mass amount of salt I get headaches no energy and very nauseous. Also, without the meat, I tried that for a while and my muscle shrank. The number one thing that I need to do in my old age is maintaining muscle mass. People who lose their muscles end up falling and have to do hip replacement or neck injuries. In the US 50% of the people who end up with this type of energy die within a year or so after.

      Japanese food of the past is not the best in the world! It is the best for people of your genetics. Every country has its own cultural diet rooted in the past. It is to that that every population must look to stay healthy. We too have many centenarians, but if I ate like you I would get sick, because my people traditionally eat differently from yours.

      ⁠​⁠​⁠@@masterep3576That just means you are not getting enough protein for your body weight. You need 1gram of protein per 1kg of body weight…. so if you weigh 54kg you need 54grams of protein a day.
      if you don’t eat meat you have to replace it with something else like beans or lentils.
      most people who get hip fractures at old age when they fell is due to low bone density if they are at a lower weight. one way to prevent this is by jumping 50 times on each leg or exercising with a weighted fast to increase bone density, that’s why most overweight people barely have any bone fractures.
      most people on the US are on a bad diet, like 90+ percent of them. They eat processed junk and lots of animal derived foods. I don’t think you should compare to them if your diet is already mostly whole foods and plant based.
      if you feel like you don’t get enough salt than there might be other things wrong; not a balanced diet or not enough iodine; iodine is added to table salt since many people take that, but it is not a good source of getting it. you can take two nori sheets a day for iodine.
      nutritional yeast also helps to get adequate sodium since it is well balanced with potassium; most people in the US are deficient of potassium.

    I live in another blue zone in Italy and many people here tend their own gardens and eat produce that thty grow themselves well into their 80's and 90's. They are out there all summer every day in the heat doing agricultural work, its incredible. These nonni know how to do evetything from scratch. They make and can their own sauce, they make their own olive oil from their own olives, they make their own wine, bread, pasta, liquors, with real yeast. They also do eat lots of small whole fish like sardines and anchiovies. There is definitely a corelation. Italy has the second oldest population on the planet after Japan.

      Humans cannot digest fiber at all. We have no cecum or hind gut with the bacteria to ferment and break down fiber. All it does is tear your digestive systems lining and cause leaky gut. The blue zone in Japan consumes the most pork of any other community on the planet, but nobody pushing a vegetarian agenda will ever mention this. Blue Zone mythology is currently being pushed by the Seventh-day Adventist Church, that believes eating meat will damn your immortal soul.

    Notes from the Okinawan study. You will have to look hard to find any pork other than a special occasion.
    Back in the 1950's the Japanese rural Okinawan group of people had
    the most centenarians per capita. How did they live so long? Here is
    their diet
    Caloric Restriction, the Traditional
    Okinawan Diet, and Healthy Aging
    The Diet of the World’s Longest-Lived People and Its Potential Impact on Morbidity and Life Span
    Ann. N.Y. Acad. Sci. 1114: 434-455 (2007).
    TABLE 1. Traditional dietary intake of Okinawans and other Japanese circa 1950
    Total calories 1785
    Total weight (grams) 1262
    Caloric density (calories/gram) 1.4
    Total protein in grams (% total calories) 39 (9)
    Total carbohydrate in grams (% total calories) 382 (85)
    Total fat in grams (% total calories) 12 (6)
    Saturated fatty acid 3.7
    Monounsaturated fatty acid 3.6
    Polyunsaturated fatty acid 4.8
    Total fiber (grams) 23
    Food group Weight in grams (% total calories)
    Grains
    Rice 154 (12)
    Wheat, barley, and other grains 38 (7)
    Nuts, seeds Less than 1 (less than 1)
    Sugars 3 (less than 1)
    Oils 3 (2)
    Legumes (e.g., soy and other beans) 71 (6)

    Fruit less than 1 (less than 1)
    Seaweed 1 (less than 1)
    Pickled vegetables 0 (0)
    Foods: flavors & alcohol 7 (less than 1)
    Data derived from analysis of U.S. National Archives, archived food records, 1949 and based on survey of 2279 persons.
    Some points
    Their diet was 85% carb, and 6% fat. Sweet potatoes (a Japanese sweet potato) made up almost 70% of their calories. Nuts were less than 1% of calories (the equivalent of 1/10 of an ounce a day) Oil was less than 2% of calories (which is about 1 tsp a day) and sugars were less than 1% of calories (less than a tsp a day)
    The total animal products including fish was less than 4% of calories which is less then 70 calories a day. That is the equivalent of around 2 oz of animal products or less a day.
    This is a population group worth idolizing.

    the question then arises if it is the Bacteria causing Longevity or the butyrate they are producing, I would argue it is the latter as Butyrate has too many health benefits to list (just search pubmed), and is suspected as the underlying chemical responsible for the health benefits of a high fiber diet, you can also take sodium butyrate in pill form, I use it as a sleep aid instead of melatonin as there is no dependency risk.

      Thank you for commenting. Yes, butyrate is doing all the work after all. And butyrate-producing bacteria are producing it. Therefore, both are important, and so are bifidobacteria, lactic acid bacteria, and natto bacteria which all support the production of butyrate. More details are in today's video.

    In Okinawa, in the past, they only really ate pig at celebrations that`s what the studies showed that were done at the time and, as you say, this aligns with traditional Japanese practises in prior times. American influencers are distorting traditional Japanese wisdom because they need to defend their meat-eating ideolog; very deeply ingrained. Actually, they ate very few animal products, including fish, according to the studies at the time.

      Yes, the discussion regarding protein intake is so confusing, isn't it, as it is so divided. As for the protein intake for seniors, I think we need to take a lot of factors into consideration; exercise, bone health, heart health, and gut health. The purpose is not to be bulky but to prevent falling, and meantime, we need to prevent other illnesses. In fact, I am covering all this in my new book that I am writing.

      That's probably true. However it doesn't help people in modern circumstances, because there is no longer any such thing as a local microbiome. The soil too needs to be regenerated. Luckily we are our own microbe factories: we just need to start feeding our microbes the proper high fiber whole plant foods. With some fermented vegetables to help stimulate new species. However, if you can, do grow some of your own organic vegetables and fruit. It doesn't get more local than that.

    Regarding "consuming meat" which you mentioned brought up as a factor in studies, it appears you do not consider "fish" as meat, perhaps you only regard "red meat" such as pork, beef or mutton as meat? But from what I observed from discussions & publications of such "studies", white meat such as fish, chicken & eggs are all regarded as meat/protein which the most recent & updated longevity & healthy dietary studies & guidelines promote & classify as good & healthy source of meat. While consuming red meat especially processed ones such as sausages has been found in multiple studies to lead to detrimental health effects(eg.increase risk in breast cancer, heart diseases etc.)

      Thank you for your comment. Sorry for the confusion. When I say meat, I usually mean beef, pork mutton, and chicken, and don't include fish or eggs. In Japan, these distinctions are not as clear since there aren't many vegetarians and vegans, meaning people who consciously avoid animal products. Even Dr. Yuji Naito, one of the researchers of Kyotango Longevity Cohort Study, called the Japanese diet a plant-based diet, even if it includes seafood. But he said people in Kyotango ate very little beef and pork and he thinks the absence of these red meat may have contributed the gut microbiota of these people.

I don't have data for mercury level of fishes caught in the Black Sea, but if you are concerned about heavy metals, its usually bigger animals/fishes, the predators at the top of the foodchain(eg. Sharks, huge fishes such as bluefin tuna) that end-up accumulating more mercury in their bodies. Consuming smaller & less carnivorus fishes from the sea pose no such mercury hazard, the huge number of lucid & quick-witted Japanese centenarians who have been consuming seafood all their lives can attest to the safety of consuming seafood.
