Blue Zones Vitality Project
I heard of this program that was giving a town a makeover to encourage healthier lifestyles. The first batch of data is in and it’s incredible. “In 6 months, participants lost an average of 2.6 pounds and boosted their life expectancy by 3.1 years. Even more impressive, health-care claims for city and school employees fell for the first time in a decade – by 32 percent over 10 months.”
