And by the way, these people weren't consciously knowing, well, meat's bad for me.

I'm not going to eat it.

They just simply didn't have the access to it.

Meat was a celebratory food.

for a wedding, it was for a birthday, or village festival, they'd slaughter a goat and eat it, or on Sunday they might have some meat.

But most of the food available to them was this sort of peasant food.

Very cheap, by the way.

I think another big lesson Blue Zones teach us is you don't have to be rich to eat healthy.

Most of these ingredients are served at the bottom shelf of the grocery store and cost a euro or a dollar or two for a quarter kilo, and it's very easy

to eat healthy on this sort of blue zone diet, blue zone way of eating.

I think that's also an important message.

As you know, almost all plants have protein.

Spinach is very high in protein, for example.

It's just not marketed to us, so we don't think about it.

But in general, the easy way, especially if you don't have a lot of money,

and you want to get your protein, and you also want to eat healthy.

We're kind of bamboozled into thinking, I need this fancy superfood or fresh greens from the expensive market.

No.

You get one pot, some nice herbs and spices, and you make beans and rice.

It's a staple in the southern part of the United States.
