- In this episode of TechKnow, we explore the regions where people enjoy a longer life of good health, regions known as Blue zones.
Acciaroli is one such region. It is part of what is known as the Cilento Coast of Italy, situated 140 km south of Naples. It has a high concentration of centenarians living there.
According to researchers from Rome's Sapienza University and the University of California, San Diego, one in every 60 of its residents is at least 90 years old.
This Mediterranean region has become known for good health supplemented by diet rich in fresh produce, pasta, olive oil, and rosemary.

This is the kind of life I'm looking for. Laid back, free from stress, being able to grow my food and cultivate my garden and enjoy fresh and organic food. Meeting and greeting friendly neighbors and has closed bond relationship with the family in a beautiful, fresh, and clean environment. This is a little paradise on earth.
Indeed!
I don't think they were saying that their lives were free from stress, they did go through two world wars after all. It seems that they dealt with their stress better than we do with the stresses of the modern world. Perhaps they didn't have the same expectations of an easy life that we have grown up with?
@@vickiworthington2441 exactly!
No stress? Bullsh*t. It’s all about how you handle the stress without making an impact on your health.
So you want to be a loser
It is so obvious to me why these people grow older. The fabric of their culture has not been ripped apart by modernism. They want to hold on as long as possible because it offers them the opportunity to see their great grandchildren grow old. It is obvious the family bonds are still intact and old people are revered elders.
Sure, the diet and exercise will help, but without those invisible social structures its like trying to fix a car with good parts but no knowledge of car repair.
bullshit
Sorry but what you said it’s not exactly, in fact the main reason of longevity is based on genetic. Secondly even the non-modernity as you mentioned actually is not correct because close family and friendship ties, plenty of sunshine which don’t concern non- modernity (in general the Italian life-style demonstrated by science) are some of the reasons of Italian’s longevity.
@Adam A. That is the secret! Eat what grows organically in the soil. Sunshine, moderate exercise, family relationships etc.
But modern life is killing every single thing created by God and create their own GMO's including creating GMO human
Or multi culturism and gang violence.
they were married for 75 years. nowadays it's they were married for 3 years a divorced or separated. single parents everywhere.
My Opinion is, that they walk a lot, eat very little processed food, have less stress and a higher balance in life. All together it results in more appreciation of life itself, which leads to a stronger will to continue with it in old age.
This is the best life🌈🙏💃🫂🌊🌌
What an esoteric nonsense xd
They are healthy because they eat very high carb low fat, and because they walk a lot.
They live a stress free life, they are happy, thats the secret. They live as a family together, grandmother sees and play with her great granddaughter.
Exactly.
Yes is true!
@Adam A. also blue zones consume more alcohol, less grains/dairy.........meat,poultry isnt the problem like areas with high dairy intake like USA has high grain/dairy intake and suffer highest rates of osteoporosis.......now California has highest production of organic food in the US and 10th heathiest state.....really fattening starchy grains like white rice, wheat, barley and rye..gluten sensitivity and celiacs is a problem as well..Not to mention Canada and US has mostly processed nutrient deficient food.....GMos, pesticides etc. like at Iceland rest of Scandinavia, spain, Australia consume some of the highest intake of meats and their the healthiest countries to live.....Spain eats alot of eat......but not much for grains, but is ranked the healthiest place.....even outranks japan for health and lifespan.....japan has virtually the lowest dairy intake and look at them......eating organic and avoiding processed, gmos, etc and dairy and grains arnt good either...Russian born man was 122 and he could pass for 85.......He ate dairy from goat and sheep's, local pasture meats and fresh greens straight from the farm or backyard....also do research on insect nutrition, insects retain dozens of times more nutrients then any animal sorce....like organically farmed cricets retain 12 x more then beef and salmon, 20 x more the eggs and chicken and 30 to 50 x more then pork or milk....
@Adam A. A MAN thought to be Russia's oldest person has died at the age of 122, authorities in the North Caucasus region of Dagestan said.
Magomed Labazanov, a retired labourer who lived in Serebryakovka village close to the city of Kizlyar, died early Friday, the local government said on its website.

The date of his birth has not been authenticated as he did not have an original birth certificate.
According to the Guinness World Records, the oldest person in the world is Besse Cooper of the United States, who turned 116 last month.
The mountainous North Caucasus is famed for its long-lived elders, although the turmoil of the Soviet era means that many do not have documents proving their age.
Labazanov was one of the thousands of people in North Caucasus republics who were uprooted during World War II on Stalin's orders and deported to Central Asia, returning only in the 1950s.
Russian tabloid Komsomolskaya Pravda said he attributed his long life to a simple diet of corn bread, whey, fruits and vegetables. Hi did not drink alcohol or smoke, it said.
Labazanov celebrated his 122nd birthday on May 1, according to local media..................................................................................................now other then corn bread, he didnt eat much grain, other articles he says he ate occasional sheep's milk, local meats, poultry, fresh vegetables and fresh spring water...remember though europe has highest life expectancy and highest production and access to organic foods
@Adam A. im getting more interested in insect nutrition insects are the most nutrient dense foods even more then seafoods or kelp, seavegtables....crickets can have u to 32 percent protein, 3 to 4 times the daily intake of most major vitamins and 2 to 3 x the intake some minerals, as well as providing 12 x the amount of B vitamins of beef or 20 that of eggs and chicken etc.. earthworms are 82 percent protein, provide omega 3 and some essential nutrients also frying them in sunflower oil, they can taste similar bacon
Life is about quality not quantity, i have known many people over 70 who are fed up with life and don`t feel like they have a purpose anymore, i suspect that the feeling of being wanted and useful keeps the people in this region in a positive and healthy frame of mind, the diet, climate and lack of stress helps too i`m sure
Good answer
These people are not eating any genetically modified food. They keep to original seasonal foods. It's wonderful to see how they live, it's so peaceful
This is the beautiful side of life...
people don't rot away like they do in some places where you see the elderly locked up in nursing homes bored to death
I’m in a Nursing Home Residence; U R ABSOLUTELY RIGHT , WE ARE HELPLESS, WAITING, JUST PRAYING TO DIE, 🙏 AMEN

And....this is my family ♥️♥️♥️
My grandparents came from here, Centola, the town over, over 100 years ago to NJ, USA.
All of the Vassallo’s lived well into their 90’s, my Unlce to 101.
Genetics. My friends.
Love, Maria Vassallo
Maria if your family lived there over 100 years ago, how are those people your family? Gli Americani sono sempre così imbarazzanti quando si parlano del loro dna.
Didnt your grandparents keep their mediterrainian diet while living in usa?
@@perseagratissima Are you telling me it’s impossible to have grandparents born in Italy in the 1800’s, and not have a connection to my current family in Italy? My grandparents came to the United States over 125 years ago, in fact, from Palinuro (Centola), had 8 children in the United States, all Americans. All of their children, including my father who is still alive at 94, lived close to 100. Their first language was Italian. My grandparents were born in Italy, we have relatives in that region.
It’s a very simple equation. They came through Ellis Island, lived here in the United States and had American children.
My dad was born in 1927, the only child still alive, and was the youngest.
Pretty easy to understand. The only embarrassing comment here is yours.
Comments like yours doesn’t make me feel good about being proud to take so much effort to keep my familial Italian connection alive.
Anyway, I may have Italian blood, but I’m a proud American, make no mistake.
Good day.
Lots of incidental exercise, fresh fruit and veg, olive oil, low stress, lots of family and friends, purpose for life well into your 70s, 80s, 90s, a reason to get out of bed every day, fresh air, church, fava beans
also blue zones tend to live near the ocean... consume more alcohol, less grains/dairy.........meat,poultry isnt the problem like areas with high dairy intake like USA has high grain/dairy intake and suffer highest rates of osteoporosis.......now California has highest production of organic food in the US and 10th heathiest state.....really fattening starchy grains like white rice, wheat, barley and rye..gluten sensitivity and celiacs is a problem as well..Not to mention Canada and US has mostly processed nutrient deficient food.....GMos, pesticides etc. like at Iceland rest of Scandinavia, spain, Australia consume some of the highest intake of meats and their the healthiest countries to live.....Spain eats alot of eat......but not much for grains, but is ranked the healthiest place.....even outranks japan for health and lifespan.....japan has virtually the lowest dairy intake and look at them......eating organic and avoiding processed, gmos, etc and dairy and grains arnt good either...Russian born man was 122 and he could pass for 85.......He ate dairy from goat and sheep's, local pasture meats and fresh greens straight from the farm or backyard....also do research on insect nutrition, insects retain dozens of times more nutrients then any animal sorce....like organically farmed cricets retain 12 x more then beef and salmon, 20 x more the eggs and chicken and 30 to 50 x more then pork or milk....

north american meat is gmo, antibiotics, growth horomes added, factory farmed and mostly feed grains with no grass or pastures to graze on
One's occupation can also have an effect on longevity. Anyone agree?
Sure. Stressful jobs slashe age
@@AhmedSayed-pj8kj absolutely spot on
A job can make you age fast…..
@@coribailey4519 It depends on what kind of job. If one's job is related to fitness or nutrition, maybe ageing can be slowed. The worst kinds of jobs are those which handle hazardous materials or those having to deal with toxic people.
Do stuff with your hands not your brain
Special area, yes its called no pesticides and no GMO.
im only watching this cuz my teacher decided to make an assignment out of this
lmaoooo not AJ

lol
I need answers
Me too 🤣
Have you learned anything from it?
This doctor/presenter is absolutely gorgeous
Absolutely, a natural beauty☺️
It's easy to see the reasons why they live so long: 70% the food, 20% happiness and 10% being active
The prophet
Food is 10%. hongkong live longest and eat most meat.
The most centenarians are in the blue zones and Hong Kong is not one of them. That crazy place would make anyone want to die early.
@@gunnikr
Hongkongers life expectancy is the longest. Google it. Bluezones are all omnivores, they are not vegans. They live long because of clean lifestyle...no drugs, no late nights, little alcohol, little tobacco, stress free family practice. If you want to compare diets, get a pure vegan community...let them use drugs, tobacco, alcohol, stay late nights...then we can talk.
Meat is healthy no wonder they love long in Hong kong

Modern world fast food is a killer .
and modern jobs too.
It's not the foods falt people choose to eat badly
Blame Ray Kroc .
Modern Life and it's values.
@@aaron___6014 values is debatable ?
Im not trying to live along life. I just have such respect for people that keep going. Especially those who are not afraid of nature, hard work, Love, Loss, & Life lessons. It’s all so beautiful. That is the definition of meek. ❤
Breakfast at 12 AM and dinner at 5 PM... that's a 18-19 hours of no eating.... that's the key for longevity: leave a gap of at least 12 hours between feeding periods. Studies on rats showed impressive results on longevity and health resistance. Humans seem to follow the same rule.
Sounds like intermittent fasting to me. Dr Berg
William Wallace they don’t have breakfast just a coffee with nuts honey not like fat Americans grew up Greece
Actually she said they have lunch at 12 am and dinner at 17 pm. Of course they also have breakfast earlier in the morning, around 6-7 am I suppose. I’m also from Italy, from the region of Piedmont, which is different in many aspects from Sardinia, but even my grandparents use to eat more or less at the same time
Sadly, this only works for 10-15% of all humans today who have a certain mutation in their FOXO3 gene. Most humans lost that mutation.
And they eat real food and not the ultra processed stuff that's killing people
i dnt see anyfast food chains

That plopping on the couch scene is just amazing, she doesn't look old at all through her movements
trees are being planted all across the world, air quality is improving , there is a wide variety of food. but all the glory goes to God.
Well the last I heard the trees are dying.The sun is not good anymore. The chemtails are killing us. I can go on and on. I live I the US, so tell me how it is getting better.
Life is about life not just about work. Work is just a tool - put it away now and then and enjoy life.
I think it's only like 20%-25% diet. And for the most part, it's just the lifetstyle in general. They get natural vitamin d from the sun, they are always active and have great socila lives etc.
Yes great point. The blue zone research talks at length about lifestyle factors.
Diet when you live in north America our diet is garbage......20 to 50 percent diet and in general its genes
Need to send some middle aged couple with bad micro-circulation to live to there and see if they can get better micro-circulation after five years.
Easy to check micro-circulation. Do you experience cold hands? If you do - try reducing dairy consumption, or increasing veggies. Do what u can to maintain warm hands (micro-circulation).

They have done numerous studies similar to the one you suggested. There can be massive alterations in health in as little as 2 weeks. Diseases can be cured in 3 months. It has happened time & time again - cures for diabetes, cancer, lupus, etc.
One thing people always overlook is the quality of soil where food is grown. Many of the blue zones are near volcanic regions
May your Life be Better and You will have Good Health and Longevity . God bless You and your Family . ❤️
After a certain age like around 30, we need to eat more vegetables and fruits and less meat, also we need to use olive oil in cooking and eat less oily food this, in turn, can keep us healthy and fit.
Actually it's the opposite. As we age, we need to eat more animal proteins to prevent sarcopenia.
+Zoncolan nope , you need to reduce protein intake if you want to live long, there is a clear body of evidence that diet rich in protein is detrimental to good health and longevity and it promotes cancer. sarcopénia has nothing to to do with protein intake, the only way to slow it down is regular strength exercises.
I am from cilento, and I guarantee you, those guys in the video eat meat everyday. Mostly white meat, but it's still meat. This vegetarian propaganda won't get you far in reality.
We have evolved for millions of years to be omnivours, a varied and balanced diet is the best in my opinion and definitely more enjoyable....
Zoncolan lololololololol
they have a good sense of community and the lifestyle there seems very laid back which reduces stress. All the 5 bluezones have something in common is staying active, eating vegetarian or nearly close to vegetarian and keeping active outside
Good points. My only correction is that there's a huge amount of vegetarian propaganda misleading us about their actual diet.
the truth is they eat plenty of meat fat and milk and cheese.
@@szililolabu a documentary I watched on the blues zones most diets consisted of mostly vegetarian but they did eat meat occasionally it was more of a once a month thing. They really consist of a very basic diet. Of one main staple and a all seem to have their own organic gardens
@@fransinclair3356 the Sardinians in the Blue zone are a sheep herding society. Like every single sheep herding society on the planet they eat plenty of milk, cheese and red meat.
There are a few debunking videos that are hard to find.
I understand that the documentaries do say what you are telling me. They are wrong.
Not true, they eat fish, meat (not so much red meat) and cheese often. Some decades ago meat (especially red meat) was not widely available but they had pork, poultry and fish often, not so sporadically.
Something that is not mentioned is height. Most people in these blue zones are relatively short and so are most centenarians. Height and weight demand more effort from the heart.
This is very interesting and confirms the essential part that healthy eating and exercise play in a quality life.
not so much exercise, but rather activity
Move to the Mediterranean, sit in the sun, go for a swim, eat good food, sounds like the good life to me :p
No wonder it has so many expats.
Best be careful with too much sunlight though, as white Europeans we have evolved to seek it out and catch every glimpse, feel the soft touch of warmth on our skin, but it's not as friendly as it seems.
Lol! You are correct Mr. Brazorf. I have people on the internet calling me black,because I live in Greece. Greeks have been white since the beggining of time,unless you run into migrants or gypsies. Modern people have been led to beleive strange things,thanks to the Jew revisionist historians. We have lived on these lands way before Homer and Herodotus and we will continue to the end of time...
yes I'm white but grew up in the tropics. We seek out the shade most of the time when we're outside. Mild sun exposure is great...it increases vitamin D production in your body. But too much can lead to skin cancer. You should always wear a hat outside.
A strong sense of community, a healthy organic diet, and simple life which the whole world once had is now the subject of scientific study. That goes to tell you how messed up we've become.
That belongs to my homework .
Well is the foundation of life they highly peaceful in mind, a secret of log life meeting , greeting, feeding fun, love, and being active.
12 in the noon and 5 in the evening. That's a 17 hour intermittent fasting everyday.
19 hrs.

Mediterranean food is the secret simply because it is rich in olives, olive oil, vegetables, fruits nuts with chicken and fish mainly and a little red meat it's healthy yet the best tasting on the planet.
Red meat isn't the problem (and I don't support meat generally, because I eat very little) but I know Sardinia, and there is a lot of red meat- beef and lamb - but it is grown on green pastures, not fed with chemical food and kept inside.
Thank you ever so much for this video :)
Beautiful documentory ❤
no industry, no fast food, 100% homegrown, local and seasonal produce, grown by hand, without machines.
Local fresh produce markets available every day, instead of only weekends or monthly.

Dont forget that these people lived 2 world wars.. they had very little food and almost no meat during their young age and for sure no sugar and all the food that we have today. They walk and move everyday, they ate natural foods and during the wars they struggled. That made them stronger. If you notice the other women with the old woman are all fat. Because now the culture is different. They eat a lot of meat and pasta now. Before they had just bread, vegetables, some egg and a little dairy organic product. Few meat from their land but not always; very little for almost 3/4 of their life. They eat very early at night and sometimes soups that give the digestion good rest.
The more I look into the blue zones the more convinced I am that it is not about “what they do.”
Then we hear “I drink milk, I eat eggs and drink wine and Pepsi, which is important.”
The truth is even these people don’t know.
I am convinced that it has to do with the energy of the zone. Nothing geo-political here but rather “geo-health and longevity.” As they say “move here and you will live longer”. True.
Panic attacks may be caused by mineral deficiency. As our earth's soil becomes more depleted of minerals, more young people may find themselves with panic attacks.
For anyone interested - "The Microcirculatory Society, Inc was founded in 1954 to encourage the exchange and dissemination of information about the microcirculation. The society holds annual meetings and has a monthly journal titled Microcirculation".
Coming from the UK, I think it's the weather, lol.
They aren't stressed like the younger generation in Italy because they have a pension and have owned their houses for several generations. They were in their 20's during the second World War so I think that they have had 70 years to get past the psychological trauma of that war. The younger more anxious generation that they mentioned in the end live in a more globalized and competitive world. In order to stand on their own two feet they have to move to the bigger cities (Sassari, Oristano, Cagliari,Rome, Milan etc) to hustle and find work. Hustle = more stress. As the mentioned, the environment isn't saturated with massive environmentaly destructive industries however, because there isn't a big industrial footprint there aren't that many young people walking around. No industry=organic food and lots of long living old folks however it also= not enough jobs for the younger generations= low birthrate for the region= problems in the future.
Very interesting, I share a gene that predisposes one to living beyond a hundred it is only found in a very small Italian mountain population & another, the same gene, in a small number of Chinese. I do have some genealogy from Italy, to be precise Tuscany. I can’t remember the name of the mountain area in Italy. But life style is also extremely important. Being active & having continued challenges & ambitions definitely contributes to a longer & more meaningful & fulfilling life.

Eating basic foods that are free from chemical preservatives free from GMs, and all of the other poisons that are predominate in our western life in the U.S. are one of the main reasons for their longevity.
I agree with you Adam. I myself eat basically a plant based diet, and one that is as free of chemicals as I can get what I eat. I am going on 78 and am in great shape, and it is mostly what I eat, or don't eat, and daily exercise as well. Also, a little bit of luck as well. Have a great day, and be safe and well !!!
@@acohen3951 you are so wonderful! Thank you for sharing your story. It was posted 3 yrs ago, you are 81 now and hope you are still doing great.
@@a.d.7922 Good Evening. I turned 81 some two months ago. I go to the gym twice per day, seven days per week. I only eat organic foods. I also take 30 GMs (30,000 MGs) of vitamin-c every day. I do not get sick and go out in the fresh air every day for walks as well. I do work every day as a medical and cancer researcher. My body is in great shape for my age, and my mind is as sharp as it ever has been. I plan to continue my daily routine including working to help others, until the day I die. I practice the same regimen as my dad, and he lived until 97 years old. I consume no chemicals from heavily preserved foods. I stay away from the doctors and do not take any vaccines, most of which are not vaccines but experiments in gene technology !!! I live a simple life style, and unless I do something stupid like jumping out of an airplane that works with a parachute that may not, I should live to at least 100+ years old !!! Thank you for your kind words and thoughts. I am always happy to help in any way that I can, anyone that comes to me for advice about life and medicine !!!
I LIKE VISIT VIDEO VERY OLD GRANDPA & GRANDMA . SHANK YOU VERY MUCH 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎☝️☝️☝️
Dude,this is cool
The presenter is so beautiful! 😍
Stress free life with little pollution, more than 12hours between meals, and most live near the sea. Does the sea and the salt in the air and water have an effect? I ask them because many mariners who spent a lifetime at sea also live reasonably long and healthy
ORMUS WATER! (Youll need to purchase a water filter machine, but hey its worth it) A TABLESPOON OF TURMERIC A DAY! (i know it may taste quite gross, but you want to live to 120 right?) MORINGA LEAFS! (This is the healthiest plant in the world with 98 nutrients and antioxidants in total, the next most healthiest plant in the world only has 28 nutrients) good thing i have 30 trees of moringa/malunggay in my garden😅
They eat plenty of meat here but the key is they don’t preserve it with sodium nitrate which is carcinogenic, just good regular salt
...it would be interesting to find out how people from this area ,who have moved away and followed a different lifestyle and diet, have fared so as to separate the effect lifestyle and genetic factors have on longevity......
Ho we know the answer , Japan has the longest life expectancy of any country , but Japanese people who live in America don't do better than white or Latino. Also in Okinawa which is one of the blue zone, the young people start to eat like American and guess what ? Okinawa has the longest life expectancy in the world but the highest rate of obesity and diabetes in Japan. So you get the answer, longevity is a set of factor, nutrition, moderate excercise low stress, community values, purpose in life, and a grain of genetic. But the
dou40006 You didn't make the effort to understand the question. You just stated the obvious, if you eat bad, you get sick. But the OP was asking something different. What would happen if any of us moved to a Blue Zone? Will we be getting the same longevity benefits? How much of the longevity is due to nutrition/environmental factors and how much due to genetics?
warren rae I am a Vassallo. My grandparents were from the town over from these people on the Cilento Coast. My dad will be 91 this year, his brother was a few months short of 101 when he died, his sisters and brothers all lived into their 90’s. He’s the baby, the last one left. He still drives, goes out to eat, helps me with my children. Etc. amazing isn’t it? And I happened upon this video by chance.
We live in NJ.
These people are my blood ❤️
Sincerely, Maria Vassallo
Personally I think it is where one lives in the world that often determine longevity.
How nice it would be if Americans could eat and live like this.
Like visit old grandpa 👍🌹🌹🤓
City point of view of town life...
What were the proteins found in blood to longevity?
Don't be fooled, they eat plenty of animal foods too (along the lines of fish, meat, butter, lard, milk etc..) as is the case with all the other blue zones.
No they don't? By all indications it's under 10%. Average of 5 times a month.
@@MasculineIdeal They do ....all those things are 100% being consumed in Italy and greece.
@@jamiemohan2049 Not in the Bluezones. Theyve been studied extensively
one of the keys, they eat dinner before 5. don't eat after sunset
in the northern hemisphere sun goes down at 3.30 pm during winter. Are you suggesting not to eat after 3.30 pm?
People in blue zones aren't even trying, imagine if they were. #pushit #addscience
Erik Ruiz, I didn't see/hear anthing about young people being irritated by their older relatives here. One thing that isn't measureable by blood tests but which is an invaluable contribution to & desperately needed by every society--& only comes w/the passing of years--is WISDOM.
Fénix Creciente TRUE
Yeah imagine if they pushed these sciences they have that make them 100-110.
They’d be pushing 125 ish
lol! a good one!
MagnaGrecia
Its the 🌊 and lifestyle,and eating only fresh produce
Walking active lifestyle and an urban arrangement and climate conducive to that lifestyle
I’m Erwin Rodolfo from Philippines. I believe I am Immortal. I’m 53 years old old but look like 30 years old.
awesome video. praise god for long life!!!!!
Obvious secret: natural food from the land, low stress life with close friends and family.
No industry
No competition for superifical short-term gains
Hardly any seed oiles in diet?
5:27 What plants are those?
Probably rosehips
TheSirToady Kumquat
Your amazing
funny thing is , all of those blue zones are next to a coast, which obviously shows that fish is important factor
Coast means more sun and less snow
I live near the coast here in Norway.. with plenty of fish & hardly any sun 😢
Vitamin d deficiency is a constant challenge
I bet you these people don’t have any where close to the kind of stress we some people in the west have to deal with in a day to day basis.
Sardinia is in the west 😂
also blue zones tend to live near the ocean... consume more alcohol, less grains/dairy.........meat,poultry isnt the problem like areas with high dairy intake like USA has high grain/dairy intake and suffer highest rates of osteoporosis.......now California has highest production of organic food in the US and 10th heathiest state.....really fattening starchy grains like white rice, wheat, barley and rye..gluten sensitivity and celiacs is a problem as well..Not to mention Canada and US has mostly processed nutrient deficient food.....GMos, pesticides etc. like at Iceland rest of Scandinavia, spain, Australia consume some of the highest intake of meats and their the healthiest countries to live.....Spain eats alot of eat......but not much for grains, but is ranked the healthiest place.....even outranks japan for health and lifespan.....japan has virtually the lowest dairy intake and look at them......eating organic and avoiding processed, gmos, etc and dairy and grains arnt good either...Russian born man was 122 and he could pass for 85.......He ate dairy from goat and sheep's, local pasture meats and fresh greens straight from the farm or backyard....also do research on insect nutrition, insects retain dozens of times more nutrients then any animal sorce....like organically farmed cricets retain 12 x more then beef and salmon, 20 x more the eggs and chicken and 30 to 50 x more then pork or milk....
A MAN thought to be Russia's oldest person has died at the age of 122, authorities in the North Caucasus region of Dagestan said.
Magomed Labazanov, a retired labourer who lived in Serebryakovka village close to the city of Kizlyar, died early Friday, the local government said on its website.
Labazanov was reportedly born in Dagestan and worked in a sawmill and later on a farm. He never learned to read and write.
The mountainous North Caucasus is famed for its long-lived elders, although the turmoil of the Soviet era means that many do not have documents proving their age.
Labazanov was one of the thousands of people in North Caucasus republics who were uprooted during World War II on Stalin's orders and deported to Central Asia, returning only in the 1950s.
Russian tabloid Komsomolskaya Pravda said he attributed his long life to a simple diet of corn bread, whey, fruits and vegetables. Hi did not drink alcohol or smoke, it said.
Labazanov celebrated his 122nd birthday on May 1, according to local media..................................................................................................now other then corn bread, he didnt eat much grain, other articles he says he ate occasional sheep's milk, local meats, poultry, fresh vegetables and fresh spring water...remember though europe has highest life expectancy and highest production and access to organic foods

They don't have fast food in these regions. They ate the healthy local food. Olive oil, beans, whole graines, eggs, fish, nuts, fruit, local dark greens, water (very little alcohol).
One thing these countries have in common, not much sugar, no vegetable oils and organic food.
"Good microcirculation" - that's the key.
Rosemary! That has to do something with the good microcirculation.
Interesting how they didn’t mention ldl level. I bet it is high.
What if your 100years old?
A lot of people think the Italians drink a lot, but actually many Italians pour a small amount of wine in a lot of seltzer.
