- Blue zones have the highest percentage of centenarians anywhere in the world. Can they tell us the secret to a long and healthy life?
In part one of this three-part series, science writer David Robson travels to Sardinia to find out what is so special about its blue zone, talking to the locals about their traditional way of life and their attitudes to ageing.
A film by David Robson and Pierangelo Pirak.

I think genetics has little to do with longevity of life, it is more about lifestyle: strong relationship bonds, exercise, healthy diet and cutting out the sources of stress.
No, genetics has A LOT to do with it. This is scientifically proven true.
@@Jon-dh3kiWhen Ikarians, Nicoyans, Okinawans --- especially the younger generation --- move away from their communities and, or adopt modern lifestyles, their health and longevity deteriorate and mirror that of their new neighbors. Likewise, when people move to Loma Linda, CA, and adopt the 7th Day Adventist lifestyle there, they live longer and better than they otherwise would.
@@user-lvqk2wdp8sjn lifestyle and environment are important factors too. but genetics ARE very significant statistically as well. Right?
In this episode: "People here live longer, the people here get very old, look this farmer is feeding his pigs, these people look young but are old, people here die later - the end"
Why isn’t this area one of the Blue Zones?
@@ddino1271it is in the blue zone
It is a special place where the long living people live with their secret routine... I think this place is same as Japanese village..i think the secrecy of their long livingness is may be their food habit's like fish and weeds..
Italy has too many old people, which if fine but they don't have enough young people to keep their system going to support all these old people.
They don't have too many old people, but too few young people. You seem very inconsiderate.
These old people, at least in central Sardinia, don't need young people; they can feed, support and take care of themselves. It's all these city dwellers who are helpless.
You are stupid? Or u don't know how this working In Sardinia
I live in Sardinia, my aunt died at 101, my mother at 98 and my other aunt at 97 from covid, my sister's father-in-law died at 101, he went to the vineyard in the morning, came home, went up to his room to rest and never woke up. Never been in hospital, drank 2 litres of wine from his vineyard and three cigars a day. Cost to the national health system: 0, not a single euro.
@@askallois wich part Sardinia?
I can imagine living an isolated life - away from the sick, entitled, selfish society we live in - can cause longevity. Sounds good to me.
Bingo
Wait ! What about people dying of cancer from radiation ordinance the military and NATO uses in Sardinia ? There are many forbidden zones in the island ! Sad !
Bingo
Fake news, they have made many investigations and checked the area, the radiation does not exceed the natural radiation of the soil.
I once heard that when the gene pool is small the offshoot is longevity, how true I don't know.
Quite the schizo comment section...
This comment section???
*yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah... 😁
Lmao, the first scene of this video is of an old and sprightly pig farmer. But Dan Beutter be like Blue Zone people rarely, if ever, eat meat
Not really, they are self-sufficient families, they eat meat regularly, but they also raise rabbits and chickens, they are not a vegetarian sect. Meat was eaten once a week, either white meat or beef, all accompanied by fresh vegetables from the garden. Pork was slaughtered in mid-December, and nothing was thrown away. They made excellent cold cuts, hams, bacon, cheeks, lard, and put them out to dry in the kitchen where there was a fireplace. As a child, my mother would send me to buy fresh milk or cottage cheese with three eggs, since there was no cash money and barter was used. In June and July we would cut wheat, barley, broad beans, chickpeas, and with the durum wheat flour every week we would make bread in the wood-fired oven, a delicious bread, and for a snack my mother would take a freshly made focaccina, put some of our olive oil on it and a crushed tomato on top, and it was the end of the world. That was life until the 1960s, and I spent a beautiful childhood in the midst of nature. Then civilisation arrived with money and everything changed.
why does someone at the beginning of this video have to ruin it with his unnecessary and out of place narrative of the lie of climate change.
He’s insinuating that the Queen is being advised by wrong people. Or maybe they are just warning the Queen about the toxic couple and is making them angry and bitter. Narcissist tends will alway see themselves as victims
Suuu
They don't.
Overpopulation of the planet... Let's think of the opposite 😉😸
Much of Sardinia looks pretty wild and natural --- not so much the rest of the world.
Quiet controversial here but,... I'm sure the time you will reach california Loma Linda seventh day adventist people, your nalative will be change!
Of course genetic play it part:
But our lifestyle act as the equalizer!
Next time you need to dig more:
Use your eyes, glasses, telescope, microscope,etc🤗
Anyway,Keep up good work👍🏿
I hope they're not closeted nazis
WTF?
