Living to be 100 is no longer a fantasy. Nor is living well to be 100. In fact, if you’re a baby girl born this morning in Japan, the chances of your living to be 100 are 1 in 2. You don’t have to move there. You just have to learn about life in the Blue Zones. There are places on earth like Okinawa, Sardinia, Icaria, Loma Linda or Nicoya where people reach 100 all the time. They eat better, live longer and are happier than we are.
You can learn to live like the world’s healthiest people — in just half a day
