Default Long Life in Okinawa

Pretty good short video feature on CNN here regarding Okinawans and their notorious long life spans.

No mystery as to the recipe: Eat healthy, stay active and work hard, be around family, and get down to some good tunes.

You should check out the Okinawa Program, its a great book, you may not learn anything new, but I found it really interesting when I read it years ago
