SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Global longevity: How findings from Blue Zones have shaped our knowledge on the keys to living longer
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Michel Poulain is a leader in the field of longevity research\, and is credited for introducing the concept of Longevity Blue Zones. These Blue Zones were originally a demographic concept introduced in 2000\, and a key initial challenge was to determine a means of validating the age of such centenarians. Once this was accomplished\, subsequent research over the past two decades has examined potential factors that may contribute to the extreme longevity in these zones\, including: genetic/epigenetic\, lifestyle\, socio-economic\, and psychological factors. This talk will highlight population data that has provided insight to better understand characteristics and behavior that could be harnessed to increase longevity across other demographics. Seven principles have emerged from observations of living in a blue zone (move naturally\, eat wisely\, avoid stress and get plenty of sleep\, keep strong family ties\, stimulate strong community support\, respect for the planet\, and have a purpose in life) however\, much research is still needed to unlock the secrets of longevity. Additionally\, Dr. Poulain will share highlights from global blue zone scholars with an emphasis on lifestyle behaviors along with a discussion on the newly identified Martinique zone in the French West Indies. Attendees will be challenged to consider what lessons learned from investigating the determinants of Blue Zone longevity could be applied to improve health in our society.
