1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,160 Speaker 1: It is Dan Butter joining us. I mean this one 2 00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:06,120 Speaker 1: of two point seven Kiss FM. These conversations. Do you 3 00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:09,320 Speaker 1: see me get probably most excited when we talk about 4 00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:11,840 Speaker 1: at this I guess at this point with what I'm 5 00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:14,480 Speaker 1: thinking about going forward in life, I get really excited 6 00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:20,360 Speaker 1: talking about balance of life and longevity and wellness and 7 00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:24,640 Speaker 1: a healthy way to sustain eating good foods because I 8 00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:27,560 Speaker 1: love food. I am a foodie. If you said to me, 9 00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:30,680 Speaker 1: what when do you have the greatest pleasure in life, 10 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:32,560 Speaker 1: it's really over a good meal with people I love. 11 00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:36,080 Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's that's the simplest, most for me, 12 00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:39,040 Speaker 1: most important thing. And Dan Buttner is here with US 13 00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:43,320 Speaker 1: now national geographic explorer and longevity expert, uh who's focused 14 00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:45,400 Speaker 1: on the Blue Zones and given a lot of great 15 00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:48,919 Speaker 1: talks about the Blue zones. Uh Dan, good to see 16 00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:52,560 Speaker 1: you again, buddy. How long are you gonna live? How 17 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:55,880 Speaker 1: long am I gonna lived? I think I can make 18 00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:58,680 Speaker 1: it a hundred. But you know, the average American could 19 00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:01,360 Speaker 1: live an extra ten years if they if they could 20 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:04,160 Speaker 1: kind of wean themselves off the standard American diet. And 21 00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 1: that's mostly mostly what I tried to reveal in this 22 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:12,119 Speaker 1: This most recent Blue Zones work. So I was thinking 23 00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 1: about this literally this morning, Dan as I saw that 24 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:18,039 Speaker 1: you were coming on and that is okay. We're gonna 25 00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 1: get through the holidays, We're gonna get into the new year. 26 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 1: We're all gonna say. I want to be the best 27 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 1: of me. For three I need to lose some weight. 28 00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 1: What's my meal plan going to be? And we've talked 29 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 1: about inniminte fasting, we talked about keto, but those to 30 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,120 Speaker 1: me are things I don't necessarily always look forward to. 31 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,679 Speaker 1: Is this a is this a program, A diet, a 32 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 1: lifestyle that is sustainable and people who really love food 33 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:45,960 Speaker 1: and need access to good food can maintain. So you know, 34 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,920 Speaker 1: my work involved finding the longest live cultures in the 35 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 1: in the world and then finding what they've done over 36 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 1: the last hundred years. And in this Blue Zone American kitchen, 37 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 1: I believe I've captured the diet and a hundred American 38 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:03,000 Speaker 1: rest piece to make those simple foods taste good. And 39 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 1: by the way that the diet of longevity is almost 40 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 1: always whole food plant based. The five pillars are whole grains, greens, 41 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 1: tubers like sweet potatoes, nuts, and beans. And if you're 42 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 1: eating about a couple of beans a day, it's probably 43 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 1: adding about four years to your life expectancy. But what 44 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:29,040 Speaker 1: keeps people eating the right foods and avoiding the wrong 45 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:33,600 Speaker 1: foods for long enough is having a social circle that 46 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:37,080 Speaker 1: helps support that. So having a few vegetarians or vegans 47 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 1: in your immediate social circle really help. And the last 48 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:42,920 Speaker 1: time we talked Ryan, it was about this book that 49 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,800 Speaker 1: showed people how to set up their kitchens so that 50 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 1: they're unconscious decisions. Because every year people start on new 51 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,639 Speaker 1: diets at the beginning of the year with great resolve, 52 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 1: but they fail on average within seven months. So diets 53 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 1: it's just the same sort of um mouse wheel, and 54 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:04,399 Speaker 1: it's really about setting up an ecosystem around yourself. Dan, 55 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 1: Buttan with us who's focused on those blue zones, one 56 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:08,960 Speaker 1: of which is in southern California Loman Linda. What what 57 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:13,520 Speaker 1: what is significant about Loman Linda specifically, Uh, it is 58 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 1: the home of the Seventh day Adventists and their conservative 59 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 1: Christians who who actually eat a biblical diet. And Genesis 60 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: chapter one, verse twenty six. God talks about every plant 61 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: that bears seeds, so that's lagoons and nuts and grains, 62 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 1: and then every tree that bears fruits, so you know, 63 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 1: apples and orangines, but also avocado and tomato. And the 64 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 1: adventures tend to follow that. So they have the extra 65 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 1: little uh support from the religion. But most of their 66 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 1: friends are also plant based, so they're not showing up 67 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 1: to the barbecue and being confronted by sizzle and hamburgers 68 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 1: and hot dogs. Um, you know, they they're eating plant based. Dan, 69 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 1: you talk about and this, by the way, it is 70 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 1: called the Blue Zones American Kitchen, which is available now. 71 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 1: There's recipes in there. And Dan, you talk about the 72 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 1: thing you just mentioned a second ago, the American diet. 73 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,840 Speaker 1: It's killing hundreds of thousands of Americans each year. What 74 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 1: is the American diet you referred to, Well, it's highly 75 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 1: processed foods. You know, you're going to a grocery store. 76 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: About seventy three of all food in a grocery stores 77 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 1: highly processed or with sugar added. So most of the 78 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 1: grocery stores are jung food and we don't realize it. 79 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:26,679 Speaker 1: It's basically the fast food uh that that fast food 80 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 1: stores that were confronted with it's very hard to escape 81 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:33,360 Speaker 1: and eating the standard of American diet actually According to CDC, 82 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:38,280 Speaker 1: six hundred and eighty thousand Americans will die just this 83 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 1: year eating that diet. And when you add that up 84 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,919 Speaker 1: over the last couple of decades, that's way more people 85 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 1: who died eating America than dying in our wars. And 86 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 1: it ought to get more attention, you should just google. 87 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,159 Speaker 1: Google what we're talking about here, Google the blue zones. 88 00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:56,599 Speaker 1: Google those people who are living on the planet to 89 00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,719 Speaker 1: be a hundred hundred plus and what they're doing. I 90 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:03,720 Speaker 1: guess the thing is, you know, I'm listening to this right, 91 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 1: I'm in my car, I'm in traffic, my schedules packed, 92 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: I barely have time to get to the store. How 93 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 1: do you how do you do this? Yeah? How do 94 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 1: you navigate on a on a tight, tight schedule with 95 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 1: so much stress and schedule heaviness? Right? Well, first of all, 96 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: realizing that eating a blue Zones diet, it's worth an 97 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 1: extra ten years, so you get a lot extra time 98 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:27,839 Speaker 1: right there off the top. But the recipe's in the 99 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 1: blue zone American kitchen. Most of them take under a 100 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 1: half hour. There are things you can do in one pot. 101 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 1: You know. My favorite breakfast I drink eat a MINESTRONI 102 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:39,280 Speaker 1: every morning every started by day with the MINESTRONI I 103 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 1: can assemble that meal in twenty minutes. I put in 104 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,240 Speaker 1: an instat pot or pressure cooker, push a button. It's 105 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:47,039 Speaker 1: ready twenty minutes later, and I have ten meals for 106 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:50,920 Speaker 1: under ten bucks. They freeze great, so I freeze them. 107 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 1: And then every morning when I get done, when I 108 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 1: you know, I started eat mid morning, I started my 109 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 1: day with the savory breakfast, so I'm not getting the 110 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 1: sugar spike from Syria or the leather t that comes 111 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 1: from eating bacon and eggs. And by the way, you 112 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 1: getting about half of all the fiber you need when 113 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,159 Speaker 1: just one bowl of that. You know, there's a big 114 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 1: sort of fiber shortage epidemic in our country, and that's 115 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:14,359 Speaker 1: causing a lot of these gut issues we hear about. 116 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 1: You know, it'situally we only eat those breakfast foods because 117 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 1: we're told those are breakfast foods. Where the conditioned as 118 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,159 Speaker 1: kids to think that those are breakfast foods. But we 119 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 1: talked a lot about a million dollars of annual marketing, right, 120 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,599 Speaker 1: I advocate a shot of olive oil in the morning 121 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 1: on an empty stomach. You know, I'm a big believer 122 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 1: in e v o. Oh, yeah, you know, I wouldn't 123 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:38,160 Speaker 1: argue with that. Actually, it's a olive oil. I think 124 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:41,120 Speaker 1: it's the healthiest oil out there, actually Extra Vision olive oil. 125 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 1: It's a good gift for for people this year.
