Dan Buettner, an American writer and explorer, noticed that some very different places around the world have one thing in common: people there have a good chance of living to be 100 years old or more. He called these places 'blue zones'. The first thing he noticed about the inhabitants of blue zones was their healthy diet. They eat a lot of fruit and vegetables. They don't eat much meat but get their protein from beans, lentils or nuts. Their diets are low in sugar and salt.

In blue zones people stop eating when they no longer feel hungry, not when they feel 'full up'. They see food as a gift and meals as a special time. They switch off TVs or smartphones and give thanks before they eat. They get exercise naturally by working outdoors. They stay fit by walking, not driving. And they sleep well, seven or eight hours a night, usually. They are generally optimistic, and community is very important to them. Older people are important and respected members of the community.
