ZOE Science & Nutrition · 5 daily habits of people who live longer | Dan Buettner · 15 Jan 2026 podcast

I'm probably done in 10 minutes.

How do you slow down practically?

Okay, so recapping.

I mean, I would say three things.

I'd say express gratitude for your food.

And this is something we saw in Kyoto, that there's this whole manner of eating where before the first bite, people take stock and all the people who brought the food to their table, the farmer...

the person who delivered the food, the person who prepared the food, the person who cooked the food, the person who served the food.

And that takes a minute.

Sit down with people and make it a social event.

So you're talking, I would say, if you can, bring food out in stages, the first plate, the second plate, and third plate.

And then I like this idea that we don't have a TV on or we're not looking at a screen.

When we sit down to eat, we just eat.

and try to taste the food and ponder it a second before you go into your second bite.

No, they're under siege.

As soon as the American way of eating, convenience, ultra-processed food, and you see immediately their rates of heart disease and type 2 diabetes and obesity begin to skyrocket and you get a commensurate drop in life expectancy.

The life expectancy is still going up, but it's decelerating.

And what the scientists are finding is the blue zones are kind of the canary in the coal mine.

Being able to study them gives us an advanced glimpse of what's going to happen to us.

Things are happening quicker there.

I'd say the corruption of the food environment, because they were isolated until 2000 or 2010, and now it's hitting hard.
