How to Live a Long Healthy Life (Part 5 of 5) – Living to 101 – BBC Horizon

Horizon looks at how to stay healthy, active and live long (Living to 101). A scientific review on the logevity hotspots of the planet. Genes vs. attitude, what defines health and ultimately a long life (Part 5 of 5).

This trend is even filtering back into the heart of Okinawan society, endangering its status of longevity and the younger population itself.
