This week, Garrett leads our discussion of Chapter 5: “Discovering Costa Rica’s Blue Zone” from Blue Zones, Second Edition: 9 Lessons for Living Longer From the People Who’ve Lived the Longest by Dan Buettner.
- 0:50 - 20:11: What were 1-2 takeaways from the Nicoyan lifestyle that you plan to apply to your life?
- 20:12 - 34:08: As you have gotten older, in what ways have your beliefs changed towards having an external or internal locus of control?
- 34:09 - 36:53: What are ways you can create more space in your schedule to have more margin in your life?
- Resources referenced or discussed in today’s episode:
- Taco Bell food quality article: click here
- Article about what Fruits and Vegetables looked like before they became domesticated: click here
- Study related to magnesium deficiency in Americans: click here
- Study related to water hardness: click here
- Data on measles cases in the US: click here
- Article related to US economy health care costs: click here
- Correction: In the episode, it was commented that $1 out of every $3 (33%) in the US is spent on healthcare. Upon further review, the actual figure is closer to 17.3%, or closer to $1 out of every $6. Thus, the comment from this episode was inaccurate
Next week we’ll discuss chapter 6: “The Greek Blue Zone” (pages 227 - 259)
Netflix documentary series: Live to 100: Secrets of the Blue Zones
