    Required watching for ever City council and planner

    Change your environment and you change the people within it. These are concepts that most people know, but fail to put into practice. We have the power to live longer, happier and healthier lives, we just need to promote it and "nudge" each other forward, but backwards, with our public policy. Eat healthier, connect with each other, stay active and value our family members of all ages. It can be done. We will all be better for it.

    Dan presents the case studies in the first 3 episodes and then the examples of how to duplicate them in the last one. It isn't difficult, we have to focus on the goal. What is good for all of us is good for all of us.

    Some reviewers need to pay better attention

    It seems that at least one reviewer didn't catch that the blue zone in Okinawa isn't the whole island, rather just a small section, so his comparison to another researchers findings makes no sense. What is really interesting is that it apppears that each blue zone seems to have different habits that all lead to the same result: being healthy and living longer.

    Anyway, this is an excellent short series that is well worth a watch. I am far more conscious of health issues than my husband is, but even he loved this documentary. I am a healthy eater, but he really is not, unless I force the issue. While neither of us necessarily wants to live to a hundred (or beyond), after watching this, he is interested in changing his diet, and that's a win for me!!

    Great Documentary!

    It's refreshing to see a documentary on longevity done so well! They cover so many different locations and focus on other areas of life that are responsible for it instead of digging deep into just the food science behind it all.

    What sets it apart is its ability to make complex scientific topics accessible to a general audience. It employs clear explanations, expert commentary, and visuals to ensure that even viewers without prior knowledge of these subjects can follow along.

    The documentary also delves into the cultural and societal factors that contribute to longevity. It introduces the concept of "Blue Zones," regions around the world known for their high number of centenarians, and explores how community, diet, and lifestyle play a crucial role in extending life.

    A notable strength of the film is its focus on actionable takeaways. It doesn't just provide information; it offers practical advice on how individuals can increase their own chances of living longer, healthier lives. From dietary recommendations to exercise routines and stress management techniques, "Live to 100" offers a roadmap to better living.

    Visually, the documentary is a treat. The cinematography skillfully captures the vitality of centenarians and the beauty of Blue Zones landscapes. These visuals enhance the storytelling and provide a compelling backdrop to the film's exploration of longevity.

    In summary, It's is a valuable addition to Netflix's documentary lineup. It combines scientific rigor with storytelling, making it accessible to a wide audience. Whether you're interested in the science of aging, seeking inspiration for a healthier lifestyle, or simply curious about the quest for a longer life, this documentary offers something for everyone. It's a reminder that with knowledge and conscious choices, the dream of living a longer, more fulfilling life is within reach for many.

    Great documentary, just not so scientific.

    To be honest, one thing that quite annoyed me is the pretentious of being a scientifical documentary, there are few flaws for instance correlation does not equal to casualties, in addition the city that he uses as examples plenty of them that are really small bellow (50 thousands persons), and this is a problem due to the size of the sample. But disregarding this, it is impressive the amount of work that the author has done and how he seeks to connect these hypotheses on something practical, such as the project of "blue zones" that seeks to improve the life expectancy in a specific city.

    Overral, the documentary is quite interesting the only caveat it isn't rigorous on being a scientific study.

    Great investigation into living long and healthy

    Blue Zones got their label from when they were marked with blue ink on the map to indicate areas with high proportion of centenarians. Dan Buettner, a National Geographic writer and bestselling author, takes viewers to Blue Zones all over the world - Okinawa Japan, Sardinia Italy, Ikaria Greece, Nikoya Costa Rica, Loma Linda California and Singapore - to find secrets to long and healthy living.

    The tips he found have been in our consciousness for as long as I can remember - healthy food and lifestyle, sense of purpose and relationships, but his presentation brings all of these more into focus.

    The most interesting aspect for me are the efforts to apply these tips in the US, like the experiment in Albert Lea, Minnesota. It would really help if the government provides boosts, like providing pedestrian lanes to encourage walking, providing public transport like trains and buses to discourage dependence on cars, or giving housing incentives to children who choose to live near elderly parents. Not only will people have healthier, longer and happier lives, the government would not have to spend as much for healthcare. Everyone wins.
