Day 10 – NUTRITIOUS

Blue Zone Inspiration

Energy is life. If we want to be alive, we must eat foods that are alive. Amidst a sea of convenient options, nothing tastes better than feeling energetic and alive.

Like most Blue Zone residents in the world, Nicoyan elders eat little to no processed foods, and instead, eat a primarily plant-based diet, especially of beans, corn and vegetables, and antioxidant-rich tropical fruit. They eat meat only a few times per week. Eating their main meal earlier in the day, and a light dinner early in the evening is another way older Nicoyans stay healthy.
