Publisher's summary

Thousands of books are written on diets, but not many, if any, on how the longest lived communities in the world live and what they actually eat.

This audiobook is a study of the lifestyles and diets of the four longest lived communities in the world. All of these locations have a higher proportion of centenarians and super-centenarians per 100,000 of population as well as many persons who live to their 130s-140s and even older.

The longevity communities in this audiobook are:

  • Okinawa, Japan
  • The Republic of Abkhazia next to Southern Russia
  • Vilcabamba, Ecuador
  • Hunza people of Northern Pakistan

In section one, you will see the information on our study and comparisons of these communities. In section two, we provide many different recipes from these communities of the type that reflect what these communities eat on a regular basis.

Come join us as we learn more about how we should live and eat to optimize long-term health through the best lifestyles and diets!

Good Research

The author explores the factors that appear to influence longevity among several population groups throughout the world. These include diet (mostly vegetarian), physical activity, religion, family and social relationships.

Awesome

Wonderful, inspiring book. Some interviews with older people around the world actually brought tears to my eyes. It's great!! And it has good ideas for eating foods that help us age healthily.
