Blue Zones: Revisited
Revisited

2 days ago
We all want to live longer, healthier lives. That's the promise of the 'blue zones' phenomenon, which identifies areas with unusually high concentrations of centenarians - people living to age 100 and beyond. But how 'blue' are these zones really? And what does the science behind the lessons learned actually tell us? Join perpetual travelers and lifelong scholars Simon and Sarah as they revisit each of the zones profiled in the hit Netflix series Live to 100 and the Blue Zones books to discover the truth - and some actionable advice.

California: Get faith, become immortal.

Loma Linda, California is the long-awaited American Blue Zone... or is it? Not only does it turn out to be not so 'blue' (we don't see a single centenarian), but it's not even really a 'zone' - at least in a geographical sense.

In this third episode of Blue Zones: Revisited, we discover just how much the definition of a 'blue zone' had to be stretched in order to find one in the US, uncover some conflicting advice about meat, wine, and spirituality, and take a little excursion filled with yoghurt enemas... and even more disturbingly... eugenics.
