My grandmother lived to the age of 96 – which leaves some pretty fine longevity in my bloodlines. What about you? Are you on track to live to be a healthy and happy hundred year old?

Enter the Blue Zone and this week’s guest on Your Life, Unlimited radio show, Nick Buettner.

Nick’s work with Blue Zones provided him a first hand, glimpse of places that have the greatest life expectancy and where more people reach age 100 than anywhere else in the world. Journey to these longest-lived cultures, sharing with them the 9 commonalities that all of the Blue Zones share.  Pick up the book Blue Zones – Lesson for Living Longer from People Who’ve Lived the Longest and enjoy the entire show podcasted here:  Your Life, Unlimited with Stephanie Staples and Nick Buettner.
