  • An American Blue Zone the Longevity Oasis in Southern California
    An American Blue Zone The Longevity Oasis in Southern California MARGE JETTON BARRELED DOWN theSan Bernardino Freeway in her rootbeer-col- ored Cadillac Seville. Peering from behind dark sunshades, her head barely cleared the steering wheel. She was late for one of the several volunteer commitments she had that day, and she calmly but firmly goosed the Caddy’s throttle to move it along. It was early on a Friday morning, and Marge had already accomplished quite a lot. She had walked a mile, lifted weights, and eaten her oatmeal breakfast. “I don’t know why God gave me the privilege of living so long,” she said, pointing to herself. “But look what he did!” Marge, born September 29, 1904, is one of some 9,000 Seventh-day Adventists who live in and around Loma Linda, California, 60 miles east of Los Angeles. For the past half century, members of this community, whose faith endorses healthy living, have participated in a groundbreaking health and dietary study of Californians over the age of 25. The results of this study hold promising clues to another remarkable fact about these Adventists: As a group they currently lead the nation in longest life expectancy. Marge Jetton, I decided, was the Adventist poster girl. She had sucked me into the whirlwind of her 100-year-old orbit an hour earlier at the Plaza Place hair salon just out- side of Loma Linda. For the past 20 years, Marge has kept an 8 a.m. Friday appointment with stylist Barbara Miller. “You’re late!” Marge shouted as I burst through the door at 8:25.

Mary Lugo, 770-623-8190; [email protected] Cara White, 843-881-1480; [email protected] Abbe Harris, 908-244-5516; [email protected] In Defense of Food Join best-selling author Michael Pollan on a fascinating journey to answer the question: What should I eat to be healthy? Cutting through confusion and busting myths and misconceptions, In Defense of Food shows how common sense and old-fashioned wisdom can help us rediscover the pleasures of eating and avoid the chronic diseases so often associated with the modern diet. Pollan’s journey of discovery takes him from the plains of Tanzania, where one of the world’s last remaining tribes of hunter-gatherers still eats the way our ancestors did, to Loma Linda, California, where a group of Seventh Day Adventist vegetarians live longer than almost anyone else on earth, and eventually to Paris, where the French diet, rooted in culture and tradition, proves surprisingly healthy. Along the way he shows how a combination of faulty nutrition science and deceptive marketing practices have encouraged us to replace real food with scientifically engineered “food-like substances.” And he explains why the solution to our dietary woes is in fact remarkably simple: Eat Food, Not Too Much, Mostly Plants. In Defense of Food, a new two-hour documentary from Kikim Media, premieres Wednesday, December 30, 2015, 9:00-11:00 p.m. ET on PBS. Michael Schwarz and Edward Gray produced the film, Schwarz directed it and Gray wrote the telescript. Kiki Kapany is the executive producer.
