So basically you will live to be a 100 years-old if you mostly eat veggies, legumes , nuts and some meat, move your body often, surround yourself with caring positive loving people , do not smoke and watch your alcohol consumption and have a deep sense of meaning and purpose.. Beautiful and simple..! 😊😊
LOL, agree what a joke. Whoever titled this video "health comes down to ONE thing" needs to actually watch the video. Click bait titles are everywhere on youtube.
Hey, check out my mindfulness interviews. Thank you for being here 🌳
Meat is the cadaver of a sentient being. Science has advanced extraordinarily past the point of killing animals for food. It’s not necessary. The evidence is abundant and available supporting a plant based diet. The absolute horrors that are perpetuated by misinformation and disinformation must stop. It’s barbaric and immoral. Eating other animals is humanity’s moral frontier…we must cross it.
My grandma from greece is nearly 90 years old and cooks greek food every day for her and my grandpa. She is healthy and strong.
Please like to send my regards to your grandparents🙏✨💫
My grandparents are from Creed Island.
One grandma always asked me to let her visit a neighbour's garden to pick up some plants called radicca plants.😊
It was sad cause she had dementia😞
Mines made it good ,as well.
Wish them a healthy life👵💯👵
My background as a pro ballet dancer made me hyper conscious of food and the effect it has on energy. The simplicity of the information in this podcast is refreshing and timely. Thanks Jay and Dan!

Thank you Man well summed up
Thank you, Jay, for this conversation, I was very excited when I saw who your next guest was. 1 law from me.Your content itself should be a law in all countries.❤Love from UK🎉
Such a fascinating interview! Eye opening, enlightening and so precious 🙏🏼♥️
Wow! This video made my day🤗
I am adventist! It was so unexpectedly pleasent to hear that Loma Linda, the town where Christ-centered Seventh-day Adventist University is one of the Blue Zones places!
The simple recipes in his books have really helped me rethink my cooking. Pinto beans were part of my childhood diet and I have made them a major part of my meals now. A Soy allergy has forced me to change my diet drastically.
*Most people only interact with the IRS when they file their individual income tax return. Some people haven't had to file returns in the past but now need to because they've become eligible for tax credits, and filing a return is the only way to get those credits. When it comes to your taxes and refunds, it's important to be well-informed and prepared.*
IRS employees are working hard to get refunds out quickly, but there are steps people can take to help with the process. They are stressing the importance of filing electronically and choosing direct deposit because that's the easiest way to file and the best way to get a refund quickly.
When filing your tax return you must make sure you are filing the right filing status with the IRS!
I have had issues myself while filing my tax refunds buh couldn’t, my spouse happened to know this tax preparer that helped his colleague, so we decided to reach out to her.
I will be also glad to refer anyone having issues to Mrs Dorothy Gibson She can help you save money by finding all the deductions and credits you’re eligible for.
Wow I’m shocked you mentioned Mrs Dorothy Gibson I thought people don’t know her... She is very knowledgeable about the ever-changing tax laws, and I feel confident that my taxes are being done correctly.
Dorothy Gibson is known for her exceptional tax services and expertise. She provide reliable and efficient assistance in handling tax-related matters, ensuring that their clients receive the best possible outcomes.
Worked with several tax preparers over the years, and I can honestly say that Dorothy Gibson is the best. She took her time to really understand my unique situation and find all of the deductions and credits that I was eligible for. I ended up getting a much larger refund than I had expected.

Wonderful interview to help each of us …own our values, find our purpose and/or stay committed to our purpose. It really hit the spot.! I like Jay’s sharing of how important building community is to him and his wife. Too many of us, born and bred Americans are too full
of ego to admit something like that. Thank you for sharing humility & and your heartfelt desire.❤

Just awesome, thank you! Indeed, the Netflix Series is outstanding and will buy his latest book.
I am a world traveller, i was born in Sardinia, my wife is from Asia, my kids were born in UAE and UK, all of my Grandparents in Sardinia lived over 90 years, but i think the secret of Sardinia the cuisine is so rich in proteins… meat, fish, seafoods, all kind of cheese and lots of legumes and vegetable fruits are part of our weekly routine, and wine never missed on the table… Pasta on Sunday mostly with all course. is one of the most rich cuisine i have ever seen around the world we all love to be back, apart of holidays the culinary experience is unbelievable, one of the most underrated food in Italy….
Hey, check out my mindfulness interviews. Thank you for being here 🌳
Sardinia is just rich in general dude…Mediterranean diet is a great thing though
And they don’t drink a bottle of vodka every weekend as Scandinavians do.
right you said it, they eat lots of proteins. including animal proteins, but why blue zones only focus on plants?
As a singaporean, Cars are expensive because there is limited spaces for car to travel without congestion. Hence, you pay a premium to own it.
There isn't a sugar tax per say, we just reduce the sugar % because Singaporeans are generally more health conscious due to its culture. However, government do subsidise healthier options so that the lower-income families can afford what the privilege eat as well.
The government in Singapore generally specialises in understanding economics & public policy. Hence, all these are possible while maintaining a strong economy.
❤ him! Changed my life
Brilliant 🎉
I love matcha its definitely underestimated its not just some basic health benefits it definitely reduces free radical damage
Those guys are going to hate me for pointing out the data from the United Nations shows the country with the longest living people is Hong Kong which on another report reveals they consume the most meat per person.
Correct. On average, they eat more than twice as much meat as people in the USA, and lots of other animal products on top. And they have the longest life expectancy in the world.
You won't hear that often, because authorities on matters of nutrition just happen to be heavily invested in the grain industry. Not to mention the pharmaceutical industry, which relies on people being obese and diabetic so they can keep selling insulin and statins. The more people follow dietary guidelines, the sicker they get.
I was cripplingly sick for most of my life. Then, six and a half years ago, I stopped eating plants. My health and mental health issues all vanished in a matter of weeks, and I lost 20kg in 9 months stuffing my face with as much pork, butter and eggs as I wanted.
True!
Top of the morning DAn and JAY

3 hoyrs is the normal time for having a meal in a restaurant in Spain with friends, we always do afterlunch time and stay just talking and having a coffee and a drink, we do not leave right after lunch
I have never heard him mention Spain. Although maybe not a true blue zone, their life expectancy is rising to the top. I would love him to speak more on this.
@@AdriannaLLopez he will never speak about spain, too much meat is eaten there, doesnt fit the narrative.
Those blue zone cities mentioned at the end are very expensive to live in..
Cities are all expensive to live even near! Try insurance costs too and it is terrible. The costs of the city reach into the places around them too and drive thr cost way up too.
Heavy meat consumption is a contributing factor of aging faster there are many things but that is one of them I eat chicken and eggs sometimes heavy red meat consumption Is incredibly hard on the body especially long term I go between vegetarian and eating lots of chicken and fish
What about the black tea, I am addicted to??
Consumer reports are essential for food services. Nutritional guidelines set standards for developed health sciences .😮
You should look at the Commonwealth of Dominica!
We eat home cooked food most of the time. No fast food close by since we are country people. Some of the city schools are teaching the children how to grow food and how to eat it in a healthy way. The kids are taking this home to their families. San Antonio, Texas and Southward has a big problem with being unhealthy. By the way not everyone can eat beans. But there are other foods they can eat that have what the body needs to be healthy. We can even eat eggs from healthy chickens when those in the city can’t. I normally buy fresh food and not much beside rice and beans. I buy other good food at Asian markets and Middle Eastern markets and the are a couple of online services for bulk foods too. Reciently I have abandoned dairy and that has been helpful. I look 20 years younger than I am and my labs for my annual health exam show the lat6 month of hard work show my labs looking like a person 20 years younger than me very too much to the surprise of my Dr. There is much I can say but I my out live the city folks in Loma Linda since I have the advantage of living in the country. I have mush of the best of the other Blue Zone habits as part of my normal life.
Nice :)
If I am living 150 years, i should give credit to my life, not fake words diet, health, fitness
the secret of living longer life is life
❤❤❤❤
I love beans but they cause me bloating no matter if a soak them for 24 hours and change theirs water or adding baking soda, or change the water after soaking them and boiling them. i have tried everything. Any suggestion?
I soak for 24 hours and put slices of lemons or lime. In this 24 hours, I change and wash the beans about 4 times or more if I have time. I learned with Brazilian friends. It will not eliminate completely the gas cause effect but you will notice huge difference. Lemon and lime break down the sugar that cause the bloating
Thank you!🙂@@paulaprivratsky8113
Use a digestive enzyme like Beano which helps. Available at any drug store.

What is blue zone?
Hey, check out my mindfulness interviews. Thank you for being here 🌳
Dan Buettner is missing important food habits in Okinawa and at the same time over emphesizing social life, my neighbour was a mizantrope still made it to 105....
This terrible comment thing messed up what I said and it is too small print too. No city for us, can’t telecommute either while keeping the safest form of transportation working. Your plan may work for city people but we are healthier living in the country. We must drive since we live in the country but with a blue zone background we are healthier so we have a hybrid car. We were told not to live in the city so we don’t and we are healthier for it. Sorry that the people at the head of my husbands company are treated like they are in their home country and I am sure that has make them expand to the USA where they can drive and own a car without such a terrible expense. I don’t want to be packed into cities like a bunch of rats and I have to pay for the open space in travel and in other ways but we are healthier for it. They tried mass transit here and us country folks don’t want it and it is not even good for the cities since it is so slow. The poor are the ones who end up using the bus because they can’t afford a car or the insurance and other costs. We have lived close to bus service before and it was going to be 2 hours on the bus for a 1/2 hour drive so that was a bad choice for family time and the rest of our life. It just was workable in anyway and it is not workable is this area either. We will drive to work and keep the safest form of transportation functioning. The city can keep its tight spaces, noise and crime and all its other disadvantages. Electric cars don’t do well either and they aren’t really a savings here when you need to drive 40 miles one way to work. The closer to the city the higher to costs and worse the conditions and the higher the taxes too as well as insurance. So there is no advantage to living in the city. Ironically there are other people who live closer, a lot closer who commute longer because of poor conditions.
He collected garbage data from Ikeria...garbage in garbage out.
In the questionnaire he left out 3 of the major foods they eat inland...
Goat
Pork
Lamb
We dont know what is life yet, the day we will no what is life, no body will die, disease will disappear, humans become immortal. But unfortunately, we dont know WHAT IS LIFE
First!
I would never give in to a snickers bar or bag of chips
It is very clear that you are from India
so? what's the point of bringing up Jay's ethnicity unecessarily?
@JayShettyPodcast I could never get tired of listening to you. I have no words for how amazing this platform is. 🤍 much love!
indians have both types of food. choice is ours what we want to eat. But I prefer to eat healthy food..
His data is wrong from Ikaria. The food questionnaire left out pork, lamb and goat....their highest percentage of food. When ask about their red meat consumption, they reported zero or extremely low. Why? Because they believe red meat is from cattle, not pigs, sheep or pork. Furthermore, he went there in the summer, when their seasonal plants are more available. The residents inland also ate less fish as residents are more self-sufficient for their food supply. They also eat a lot of cheese from goats milk. The residents are very private, they have only disdain for how he portrayed their food and the filming. This is someone spending time to get to know the private lives of them.
Correct. The blue zones' diets have been thoroughly studied, and it turns out, for all but one of them, they eat more meat and less grain than is average in their areas. Pork and fermented dairy products are very popular.
Doesn't green tea lowers testosterone? Cheers.
I WOULD LIKE THAT YOU COULD HAVE CRISTIANO RONALDO, BECAUSE THAT MEN HAS BUILD HIMSELF IN ALL THE ASPECT OF LIFE.
7 cups of green tea better make sure CAFFEINE FREE.Also if you eat white rice not healthy turns into sugar.
Tell that to the millions of healthy Asians that eat white rice as a staple. Sit down; Be quiet.
@@doctork1708 fake DOC do your RESEARCH ,FACT ,BOY!!
I am sorry but to me he lost his credibility when he says meat consumption is associated with T2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
Check Dr Greger, Neal Barnard works.
Hell no thanks. It was enough just once to have a look at Greger's physique. Epitome of malnourishment. @daniellecolas8910
I’ve watched a few episodes of Buettner’s Netflix serious. I found him to be similar to a snake oil salesman. Lots of awesome sounding “conclusions”… with nothing to back it up.
Basically his fancy “new” advice isn’t any different than what we’ve always heard - stay active and eat right.
I disagree. While I also think he could have backed the latest videos up with more science and studies, I think he still did a great job. His first book was in 2008 and was not common knowledge before that. I like that he also has helped cities transform to be healthier, using his findings. No snakeoil. He's doing some wonderful things for us including his books.
I like Jay Shetty previous hair style from his earlier influencer days. This current hair style is too metrosexual, westernized, and reeks of vanity.
a tortoise living a life of more than humans, WHY
Не верю таким вещам и не учу Английский
Policy ? Bureaucratic socialist? No personal responsibility? He’s like the mandate people who were wrong.
But my mom says beans 🫘 give her internal pains
