The term “blue zones” was first coined by Dan Buettner, a National Geographic Explorer and Fellow and journalist, during an exploratory project he led in 2004. After an expedition to Okinawa, Japan in 2000 to investigate the longevity there, he set out to explore other regions of the world with reportedly high longevity. With the support of National Geographic, Dan, and his team of scientists and demographers travelled the world in search of communities where people not only lived longer but also enjoyed a high quality of life into their old age. After analysing demographic data and interviewing numerous centenarians, they identified five regions that stood out for their extraordinary longevity and vitality.
