Misconceptions about the Blue Zones
The Blue Zones, a concept that highlights regions with high concentrations of centenarians, have been misrepresented in a Netflix documentary. The focus on diet as the primary factor in longevity is flawed, as it neglects other crucial factors such as community and lifestyle. Additionally, regions like Hong Kong and Iceland, which have high meat consumption, are not included in the Blue Zones. It is important to recognize the privilege inherent in these discussions and consider the broader context to understand the complexities of human longevity.
