If You Move To These Blue Zones Around The Globe, You May Live Longer!

Have you ever looked at a picture of a place and felt that you might live a better life there? There are some countries that exist in the world where people actually live longer lives than the average human population on Earth. These places are termed as ‘Blue Zones’. There are five regions that are identified as blue zones:

1. Sardinia, Italy

2. Okinawa, Japan

3. Loma-Linda, California

4. Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica

5. Icaria, Greece

At these places, studies have been conducted and it has been found that people easily reach their 90s and 100s and rarely suffer from the diseases that take the lives of the people across the globe. Research conducted at these areas found that the place had these six common characteristics:

They made their families a priority, putting them ahead of all other concerns.

Smoking was found but it was in a very less amount.

Majority of the food they consumed was derived from plants, they practised semi-vegetarianism.

The people had a social life and communicated with others around them.

A high consumption of legumes like peas, chickpeas, lentils etc. was found in the population.

Most of these people living in the ‘Blue Zones’ had regular physical activity, could manage stress well and had moderate alcohol intake (had wine majorly).
