Have you ever wondered how some communities across the world seem to live such long, happy, healthy lives? This can be especially perplexing when you look at the growing statistics of how many people in the U.S. are living with things like heart disease, diabetes, and high blood pressure. While there are so many possible factors for these types of health problems, one common risk factor for Americans is abdominal obesity.
Abdominal obesity can be harmful to your health because this type of fat can actually grow around your abdominal organs, which is what can lead to more complications. And while this is common here in the states, it's not something you see at all in the Blue Zone regions of the world.
These five regions are known as the healthiest in the world and are home to the largest concentrations of people that live beyond 100 years. These places also have some of the lowest rates of disease, which is why researchers are continually looking into their daily habits and practices.
