Summary

Hey, Heal Squad! This Throwback Thursday, we’re bringing back an incredible conversation with Dan Buettner, National Geographic explorer and NYT Bestselling Author behind The Blue Zones. Dan has spent decades studying the world's longest-living communities, uncovering the secrets to a healthier, happier life. From the power of plant-based eating to the role of strong social connections and stress reduction, Dan breaks down the key lifestyle habits that contribute to longevity. He also shares surprising insights about how the American diet is impacting our health—and what small changes we can make today to add years to our lives. If you’re looking for real, science-backed ways to feel better, live longer, and cultivate more joy in your daily life, tune in! HEALERS & HEAL LINERS: The Blue Zones Secret: The world's healthiest and longest-living people don’t rely on diets or gym memberships—they incorporate movement, whole foods, and deep social bonds into their daily lives. Rethink Your Plate: The key to longevity isn’t in a magic supplement—it’s in whole, plant-based foods like beans, nuts, and whole grains. Purpose = More Years: Having a strong sense of purpose can add up to 8 years to your life! Your Environment Matters: Where you live and how you structure your daily habits play a bigger role in your health than genetics ever could. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website: https://www.healsquad.com/ Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s Storefront AquaTru: https://aquatruwater.com/ code: HEALSQUAD AirDoctor: https://airdoctorpro.com/ code: HEALSQUAD Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Sleep Number: https://www.sleepnumber.com/ DAN BUETTNER’S RESOURCES: The Blue Zones Secrets Book: https://go.shopmy.us/p-13693568 Website: https://danbuettner.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/danbuettner/ ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.
