Blue Zones: Secrets of a Long Life
World-renowned explorer and National Geographic writer, Dan Buettner, and his
team of researchers have travelled across the globe to discover Blue Zones --
hotspots of human health and vitality. Along the way, Dan has met people teeming
with vigour at age 100 and beyond. These healthiest, longest-lived people have
shared their secrets with Dan, and he’s passing on those secrets. Dan and his
team of top demographers, scientists, and physicians have studied the elders’
diet, lifestyle, and culture to create a cross-cultural blueprint for living
longer that they will share with you. "We know there’s a recipe for longevity
and that 75 percent is related to lifestyle," Dan said. "And we’re figuring it
out."His presentation
incorporates National Geographic images that will take audiences into the
world’s four Blue Zones, tell stories, and instruct how to get more life from
your years and more years from your life. The presentation ends with a simple
formula that shares how you could add up to eight good years to your life.
Dan isan Emmy Award-winning
documentary producer and has been seen on
CNN, Late Night with David Letterman, ABC's "Good Morning
America," "Martha Stewart," "Primetime Live," the NBC Today Show, and featured
in an hour long "Oprah Winfrey Show." For more
