Quotes from the same author
Life expectancy in America is about 79, we should be able to live to 92. Somewhere along the line, we're leaving 13 years on the table. So my quest is -- how do we get those extra 13 years? And how do we make those extra 13 years good years?
Dan Buettner
A long healthy life is no accident. It begins with good genes, but it also depends on good habits.

Diet and supplements and exercise programs aren't what is achieving longevity. Having a faith-based community can add four to 14 years.
Dan Buettner
Exercise, from a public health perspective, is an unmitigated failure. The world's longest-lived people live in environments that nudge them into more movement. They don't use power tools, they do their own yard work, they grow a garden.
Dan Buettner
The beauty of moving naturally, i.e. walking and gardening, is they're low impact. You're less likely to fall down and break a hip. Setting up your life so you're nudged into general physical activity every day is a strategy for your entire life from age 10 to 100.
