I’m joined by National Geographic explorer, longevity expert and author, Dan Buettner. Dan’s work centres on reverse-engineering the lifestyles of individuals living in the Blue Zones, the regions in the world with the greatest number of centenarians, and specifically, how these individuals eat, move, live, and interact with others to live long and healthy lives.

We discuss:

How to eat to live to 100
Why deliciousness is the key to eating well for life
Shaping your food environment for health and happiness
Exercise habits for longevity
The impact of community on your wellbeing
How to reduce stress and why it matters for longevity

Each week I unpack a wellness trend with GP Gemma Newman. This week on Fact or Fad we’re looking at cold showers.

Best podcast app

App Store

I’ve been using Snipd for about a year and this app has been life changing. I listen to about 17 hours of podcasts a week and I want to take notes on 95% of them. Snipd makes it so easy to do. I can triple click my headphones and record a snip. The app also improves rapidly which is welcomed. It’s an easy subscription for me to pay.

🤯 How amazing is this app?!

Snipd helps me keep track of everything I resonated with from a show. I can always find my snips, listen to them again, share them. And there are so many great product updates regularly!
