Plot Synopsis

LIVE TO 100: SECRETS OF THE BLUE ZONES is a four-episode documentary series that follows author and adventurer Dan Buettner, as he travels around the world to investigate the diet, behavior and lifestyles of those living the longest, most vibrant lives. Buettner gains insight on how people might live longer by following their leads, because the things that make a long, healthy life are the same things that make life worth living. In the early 2000s, Buettner scoured the globe for years in pursuit of places where people live much longer than average, and the concept of "Blue Zones" came to fruition. Those expeditions led to the discovery of "Blue Zones" within Okinawa, Japan; Sardinia, Italy; Ikaria, Greece; Nicoya, Costa Rica; and Loma Linda, California. In these places, Dan discovered people living to be 100 at the highest rates in the world. These five populations each have their own unique secrets, but also share some surprising common behaviors that are proven to promote longevity and health. All four episodes of LIVE TO 100: SECRETS OF THE BLUE ZONES dropped on Wednesday, August 30, 2023 on Netflix.
